How to forgive a jealous boyfriend?

Jealousy is an unattractive trait and it can be a dangerous one. Try to understand that he feels that his jealousy is a measure of his love for you and he really can't help it. He sees threats to your relationship where there are none, and these perceived threats cause fear and anger. In some people, the anger can grow out of control, and can lead to violence. Be aware and be careful.

What do you do about jealousy?

This may not work if the person asking for advice is agnostic or atheist. Then who would they pray to? I say some jealousy is unavoidable even in perfectly healthy relationships. Most people will even tell you that a little jealousy is an ego boost. I will agree that the bible says that jealousy is rottenness to the bones but God is also a jealous God... which makes me feel pretty good that he doesn't want me running around with any other Gods. That he just wants me all to himself. Kind of like a relationship with someone you love, right? There is, however, a fine line between a little jealousy and an abusive boyfriend/girlfriend. If he/she is 'forbidding' you to talk with a friend or family member without a good solid reasoning... maybe it's time to think twice about sticking around with this person long term.

No one really has the answer to this. Jealousy is a very evil and painful feeling, usually in a teenage girl who feels insecure about herself. The thing about this monster called ''jealousy'', is that it will go on and on and grow and grow, if you don't do anything about it. The best thing to do (in fact recommended), is to just pray for the person you're jealous of; ask that God will help them and protect them, and heal them through what they may be going through themselves (yup, even the person you're jealous of has a few problems here and there). Even though it may be hard at first, God will truly reward you! You will just see!

How can you tell if a boy is jealous of you?

Jealousy affects everyone at some point. It is related to the intensity of desire and whether one thinks that someone else is getting what you want instead of you. If you are the object of desire and are going out with someone else then some jealousy is inevitable. It can usually be sensed or seen in body language, in the awkwardness of behaviour, tension, or anger. Do you sense kindness in the eyes of the boy looking at you. Are they actively friendly? do they like your company? if not they may be jealous. Jealousy is reduced where there is some change of gaining the thing desired in the future. For example you might feel some jealousy of a friend who has a new desirable product, but if you know that in future you might be able to get this yourself jealousy is not a major problem. Jealousy is a big cause of friction between people who want the same thing when it is in limited supply, and can at times lead to extreme forms of violent behaviour. Envy and jealousy are very damaging emotions and the best way to counteract them in oneself is to be actively grateful in whatever happens to you.

What is jealousy in The Bible?

'Jealousy' can be good or bad, depending on the situation, but is a very powerful emotion which needs to be carefully controlled.

The Hebrew word is 'qinah' meaning 'insisting on exclusive devotion, tolerating no rivalry', zeal, ardor.'

1. GOD is holy, a God of peace (Isaiah 6:3/1 Corinthians 14:33), but he is called 'Jealous' at Deuteronomy 4:24(Zechariah 1:14/Exodus 34::14), which means he expects and deserves'exclusive devotion'. He is the creator, he loves his creation and knows what is best for all. Serving HIM ALONE means our lives and he is 'jealous' for this, as a marriage mate would be rightly 'jealous' to protect their marriage. It's a righteous jealousy. He has a RIGHT to feel jealous for the devotion of his people. And he can perfectly control his actions.

2. Then there's also an UNrighteous Jealousy, concerning people who insist on devotion, or on something else that they have no legitimate right to. ...they do not deserve it. This is the type of jealousy that does harm, as can be seen by these scriptures. This would be 'ENVY'. This type of jealousy is a work of the flesh, and when in the hands of imperfect uncontrolled humans becomes 'rottenness to the bones'. (Proverbs 14:30) (Proverbs 12:4)(James 3:16)

(Proverbs 6:34) For the rage of an able-bodied man is jealousy, and he will not show compassion in the day of vengeance. . .

(Galatians 5:19-21) Now the works of the flesh are manifest, and they are fornication, uncleanness, loose conduct, idolatry, practice of spiritism, enmities, strife, jealousy, fits of anger, contentions, divisions, sects, envies, drunken bouts, revelries, and things like these. As to these things I am forewarning YOU, the same way as I did forewarn YOU, that those who practice such things will not inherit God's kingdom.

An improperly jealous person suspects others without reason or unjustifiably claims something as his, desiring or 'coveting' what others have achieved, often expressed in Greek as 'phthonos', or "envy."

Why was King Saul jealous of David?

1Sam:18:8: And Saul was very wroth, and the saying displeased him; and he said, They have ascribed unto David ten thousands, and to me they have ascribed but thousands: and what can he have more but the kingdom?

1Sam:18:9: And Saul eyed David from that day and forward.

Saul feared David had become more popular than him. He was already paranoid that someone would take the kingdom from him as the Lord, through the prophet Samuel had foretold.

Is loving your best friend a wrong thing?

Loving someone is never wrong .It's a great and amazing thing to love and be loved. Why would it be wrong? To love your best friend is such a great power among us all. Trusting, caring, and being there for each other is apart love. Never put down love, it's the way we evolve and become stronger and to know there's always that one special friend by your side, well that is apart LOVE. (love is a hard emotion to define)

I think it's fine for you to like your best friend in a different kind of way. If you are in love with them then you can't help that. Just find out if he/she likes you before you ask him/her out or flirt because if he/she doesn't feel that same way then it could really spoil your friendship.

But it can also hurt you (honestly), love is a hard emotion to give advice for. It`s extremely delicate and yet a very powerful word to use. If your friend doesn`t want to be more than friends with you, since you love them, you might feel really hurt at first. Then later you might realize, that if you truly love that person, then you`ll be happy once their happy.

AnswerFirst of all loving is absolutely not wrong. It's sometimes being wrong because of the standards that people had set nowadays. If the culture told you this or that you should do it and if you've chosen to go against the flow, you're definitely wrong to their eyes. My point is that don't think that you're feelings is wrong. you're being in love with your best friend or other people, it's just the same thing. Many people have been in your situation. Some of them are happy now and some of them are not, maybe they don't have enough strength to fight for their love and maybe the standards ate them without escape.

It is really hard to figure out if your ex still has feelings for you, but you should not make them think you are wondering if he still has feelings for you.

How do i make my boyfriend attracted to me?

If you know what sexaully features he likes on you, Flaunt it! Like if he likes your brest, wear some v-neck shirts. If he likes you for lack of words but, wear some pants, skirts, shorts that complent it. Any other feature that he may like on you, just show it off a little more, not to much bc you don't want to seem trasy. When you guys kiss just a tender one on his lips once and a while and he goes to say something just take your finger like your going to "shhh" some1 ang then just walk away. You will seem like your up to something that way.

Wait for him and presto, it is your lucky day.
