Does jealousy come from love fear low self esteam and insercurties?

Jealousy can stem from a combination of factors such as fear of loss, low self-esteem, and insecurities. It often arises when there is a perceived threat to a relationship or self-worth. In some cases, jealousy can be a sign of deeper emotional issues that may need to be addressed through self-reflection or therapy.


What causes jealousy?

I have to say, I don't have the complete answer to that, but what I do know is that jealousy is usually caused by insecurity. A lot of people today (more referring to pre teen and teenage girls) suffer jealousy for many reasons. Usually it is girls who either think another girl is prettier than them, maybe more talented, etc. In any way, jealousy can be very painful, if not dangerous to our society today. *Jealousy's main cause is girls [or boys] who feel insecure about themselves. Jealousy is very natural but we do need to learn how to control this emotion which is the hard part, many people suffer because of something that has hurt them or it can be because of some fear do to a past terrible experience or relationship. When something happens that reminds us of it again it causes a fear, anger and jealousy. It's all related somehow.

What's the difference between jealousy and envy?

Jealousy is a lighter word than envy, which is darker. Jealousy is usually used when it comes to a relationship: His girlfriend is jealous, she always stays with him. Envy, as stated, is a darker word, and it's when you resent the success of the others: He envied his friend because he had a big house, beautiful family. Envy is one of the sins, jealousy is not.
