How to get over retroactive jealousy regarding my partner's past?

TexChik · F
If your partner is not doing anything to make you jealous, then you need to get past feeling inadequate or inferior t... because after having those relationships... your partner has chosen you instead . Think about that ... and just be you ... that’s what your partner is attracted to . You ! 😉
Accept that he had other partners in the past and that they are just that - his past. I'm sure that you have a past of your own from before you met him.

If it's so difficult to accept, try not to think about it or maybe you can find a way to see that his exes obviously don't mean that much to him or he'd still be with them.

Try to get a lid on this as soon as possible, though, otherwise it may break your relationship or lead to an abusive situation.

My own experience of jealousy saw me ending up isolated in a situation that I don't know how to get out of now.

Think how that’s going to cause you to lose him. It’s the past for a reason. Let it alone. It’s over. Work on your insecurities.

It is only sane to be jealous of people who are trying to usurp your position in your partners' present. Those others are gone. If they mattered, they would still be in your partners life. And remember, if you display possessive and jealous nuttiness, you will drive your partner away.
