Question: Why do I always get jealous and end up driving my partners away?

Dear Betty,

Why do I always get jealous and end up driving my partners away?

There are many reasons why jealousy gets triggered.  To name a few; childhood trauma, history of betrayal, fear of abandonment, unhealthy co-dependency, anxious attachment style and more.

To discover what is going on and to create a new pattern let’s start with this exercise:

  1. First, check in with yourself.  Ask “What am I feeling?” and label it. E.g. sad, mad, scare, frustrated.  We know that feelings are neither right or wrong, they just are.
  2. Ask yourself “What thoughts, beliefs and past experiences have I attached to this feeling?”
  3. Is what I am feeling true of what’s happening now or is this feeling from a past experience?
  4. How can I use these insights to help me grow and create new patterns that are in my highest good?

Remember, you are the chooser and as such you choose which emotions to follow.  Are you going to follow the emotion of jealousy or something else?

I would love to know your insights and help you create new patterns.

What Clients Are Saying

Betty walked the path with me in such a way that I found someone amazing!

In a world saturated with online dating and connections that just seem ingenious, I had given up hope. I craved human connection that didn’t involve a screen and knew that I had a lot of love to give.

Finding that person was an uphill battle, but Betty made me feel as though I was not alone. She helped me believe in myself and walked the path with me in such a way that I found someone amazing… and learned more about myself in the process. In my eyes, that’s a double win! – Bruce W, Nashville TN

Betty helped me to regain my authenticity and confidence

I was down-right desperate to find love. I was looking in all the wrong places and found my emotions to be all over the place every time I went on a date. I felt disappointed and hopeless.

Betty helped me to regain my authenticity and confidence. She didn’t just help me to find a partner, but also helped me to navigate my emotions, and realize that it takes two to tango. I had to be the best version of myself to meet someone, and Betty did that for me. – Amanda S, New Orleans LA
