A little jealousy is inherent in almost all romantic relationships.

However, sometimes this feeling can be a real problem.

In this article we will tell you exactly why jealousy may arise in relation to another person.

Why jealousy occurs

The most common reasons are lack of self-confidence and lack of trust in a partner.

If a person has low self-esteem, he or she is unable to feel worthy of a partner and valuable in the relationship.

Therefore, lack of confidence in one’s own strengths and attractiveness causes jealousy and thoughts of a third, more “worthy” person.

Another reason for jealousy may lie in some signs of obsessive-compulsive disorder.

Obsessive thoughts involuntarily come into a person’s head about what the partner is doing.

Then there is great anxiety and jealousy.

In addition, jealousy is often inherent in those who exhibit some paranoid personality traits.

However, this is not necessarily a disorder.
