10 Effective Strategies When You Experience Jealousy In Your Relationship (5 of 6)

8. Voice Your Concerns

If your partner is acting in a way that you find inappropriate or someone else is acting in a way that provokes feelings of jealousy, you need to nip this in the bud right away. You might find that your partner had no ill intentions, but it is still a good opportunity to establish relationship boundaries. It would be a pretty controlling thing to make him/her block people in their lives on Instagram just because you feel inadequate comparing yourself to their followers, but there’s nothing wrong with muting them from your end.  

9. Think before you act

Amidst temporary feelings of anger and jealousy, how you respond can literally impact your life forever. Losing control of your emotions is a surefire way to blow up a relationship. Take a deep breath, find a quiet spot to gather yourself, and self-soothe when jealousy gets the best of you.
