The Situation

"She said she trusts me but acts jealous all the time"

The Brutal Truth

She says she trusts you, but her jealousy reveals insecurity. It’s an indicator of her unresolved issues, possibly driven by past experiences. This dynamic creates a tension that diminishes trust and emotional safety in the relationship.

❌ What NOT to Do (Anxious Response)

An anxious person might constantly reassure her and alter their behavior to ease her jealousy, which only reinforces the insecurity and unhealthy dependence. This is wrong because it encourages her to rely on your validation instead of working on her own self-worth.

💭 Something to Reflect On

What patterns have you noticed in your relationships that might indicate insecurity or jealousy, and how do they affect your sense of safety and self-worth?
