Jealousy

Many times, people around us feel insecure and jealous of our relationships, wondering how your relationship has been so successful. They might not wish ill for you; in fact, they acknowledge the love, respect, and strong bond between you and your partner. However, inadvertently, they begin to compare their own relationships with yours. Unaware, they may cast a negative eye on your relationship.

This tendency often manifests in family and friends who have known you or your partner from the beginning. They hold a preconceived perception of your nature, habits, etc. Yet, as you evolve and adapt within your relationship, growing positively, they struggle to embrace the change. Despite your positive transformation, they are accustomed to the old version of you.

It's essential to recognize that change in a relationship is often for the better. While you and your partner grow, adapting to new dynamics, not everyone may be thrilled about it. Instead of celebrating your growth and happiness, some may fall into the trap of comparing your relationship unfavorably with theirs.

In such situations, it's better to maintain a certain distance from individuals who, rather than appreciating and celebrating your joy, find themselves envious or threatened by the positive aspects of your relationship.
