How to get over jealousy of boyfriend's ex girlfriend?

Answer 1

Start dating his best friend.

There are plenty of things that you can do. You can find some interest that you would like to do everyday, like sports, for instance. You can also try to find some other friends that would appreciate you for who you truly are. If you are the type of person who would like to get revenge, though, you should try to start dating his close or best friend, and break your ex boyfriend and his current girlfriend up.

Answer 2

You either choose to trust them or you don't. Watch for "red flags." Is he calling her still, talking about her often, bringing her up in conversation, staring longingly at old pictures of her? If there's no reason to be worried, then don't be.

Answer 3

• 'Ex' means your relationship with your boyfriend is over and other than accidentally bumping into him you should not be having any contact at all and therefore his new girlfriend would not be jealous. It is time for you to move ahead in your life and leave your ex and his girlfriend to themselves.

there are some instances that are infinitely more complicated. my ex hooked up, almost immediately after he left me, with a woman who, in my opinion, probably has borderline personality disorder (BPD) and narcissistic personality disorder (NPD). as soon as she had seduced him and become his girlfriend, she started calling me and even wanted to come over to my house to visit with me. of course these calls were extremely unwelcome and upsetting and the complete lack of empathy to my position as a person grieving a recent break-up with her current partner were good signs to me that i was not dealing with a mentally healthy individual. after several phone calls i simply said, "don't ever call here again", and hung up. Surprisingly the phone calls did stop. (BPD/NPD's are often exceptionally cunning people and my guess is she knew phone calls can be traced and excessive records of calls to my home might lead to the involvement of law enforcement.) the phone calls were replaced with harassment in person. i live in a fairly small town so it is inevitable that our paths do cross from time to time and this is becoming more frequent now that her younger daughter has grown and she has more freedom to be out in the community. In addition to this we also have social circles that overlap. Upon sighting me she may: try to engage me as if we are good friends; taunt me, usually saying hiiiiiiii cindy (made up name) in a tone that would be more appropriate to the words, "you're a bitch!"; create a ruckus to get my attention and then glare at me to frighten and intimidate me; stand in front of my vehicle door so i can't get away without a confrontation. these behaviours continue to this day, despite the fact that i have had virtually no contact with my ex since he left me (without a word, after a 2 year relationship!) six years ago! My way of dealing with this unwelcome behaviour is to ignore her. i walk right by as if she doesn't exist. yes, i know her and who she is and normally would be polite to people i know, but this is not a situation where being polite is appropriate. my mantra is NO ENTRY. YOU GET NOTHING. you have proven time and time again that your behavior and attitudes are inappropriate so you get nothing. i assert my right to not interact with someone that is not healthy for me and I operate on the assumption that in this type of situation if you give an inch they'll take a mile. i cant say that it is completely effective. BPD/NPD types are extremely effective at manipulation and penetrating people's (psychological) defenses. it is only now after doing a tremendous amount of research on BPD/NPD that i am able to figure out what has been going on and how my own lack of assertiveness contributed to this problem coming into my life. so in short, my answer is, you may be dealing with someone with a personality disorder; completely ignore them and do not waiver from that position; educate yourself about both personality disorders and assertiveness training; if the behaviour seems to be escalating document it and inform your local law enforcement agency as a pre-emptive measure; surround yourself with loving people that you feel completely emotionally safe with all the time and that always seem to be looking out for your best interests and taking them into consideration in all their interactions with you.
