Hello, I am 30 years old, and have to say that I seem to have an ongoing battle with jealousy in my relationships. I am attractive and have a lot of male attention, but when in a relationship - I start of independent then become very dependent upon my partners (something I have noticed as a pattern) yet this always seems to have some validity, as if deep down I know they are cheating, or trying to gain attention from other women. I am trying to work out why this happens, I tend to give too much in a relationship too fast, this I know, I also like a lot of attention - is this a reflection of my insecurity possibly. I have had many destructive relationships due to my jealousy. All of them ended with my partners running of with another woman. Am I making bad choices in men? or am I pushing them away my current relationship is heading this way, and I am doing whatever I can to stop myself, but I dont seem to be doing too well. I guess it doesnt help that I am currently in the UK waiting for my visa to return to him in the US.
I'd really like some insight as to what I can do to stop myself from thinking the worst and from becoming so sarcastic when I feel like this. I hold a Psychology degree believe it or not, and I cannot apply none of that to myself which makes it 100 times worse, as I feel I should know better.
Any help would be greatly appreciated
