Dear Kat,

A while ago a had a crush on this guy. I asked him out and got myself rejected ( Now I hate that word). Anyways, after a period of anger, I made up with him and we became friends. I thought I was over him. Here's the problem. Recently, every time I see him talking to or even being near another girl, I feel this crushing jealousy. It's like I want to walk over there and murder the other girl, even if she's my friend. It's starting to get worse. Now, I even feel slightly jealous when my best friend is talking to him. Please Help!

Dear Anonymooooose,

For starters, I am really sorry you got *looks around* the 'r' word. I hate it with a passion, too. Anyways, it's always good to become friends again.

  Jealousy is a strong and overpowering emotion. The only way to stop being jealous properly is to overcome it. This may help : 

"For where jealousy and selfish ambition exist, there will be disorder and every vile practice..." James 3:16

  Just focus on the fact that he has the right to speak to girls just as you do boys. Imagine if you were in his shoes. You'd want to be able to at least talk. Plus, if your best friend knows, a true friend would never betray you in such a way. Just overcome jealousy and realize that you are beautiful, no matter what they or he say. You will find the one someday. We always think 'they're the one', but the truth is, they're not. You'll find him one day, and you'll never let him go because he'll always love you back.

xoxo,

Kat
