Removing jealousy is an easy problem: just avoid getting too close to people. Like sadness, jealousy itself is not a problem: it's an indicator a certain kind of problem exists. Jealousy is not irrational, just as sadness isn't. It's merely information. https://twitter.com/PSTaylor13/status/1096401617337835520 …
It's weird how many folks who wouldn't let any other emotion rule their lives will submit to their own jealousy like it's their lord and master.
It's a hard emotion to control. Plenty of people who have an iron grip on their other emotions struggle with it. I have a suspicion that part of it is lack of practice - I get to practice restraining furious anger on a daily basis, leading to more mastery.
Maybe poly people are the only huge romantics who aren't in denial?
Jelous rage can be nearly impossible to control, even by the most rational intellectual. It's a limbic response that most people have been fortunate enough not to experience, and therefore don't understand.
That thought has crossed my mind too. When I see people talking about "controlling" jealousy I wonder if they've ever experienced the sort of deep lizard-brain jealousy that colors every thought and cannot be controlled by the cerebral cortex.
>It's weird how many folks would let emotion rule their lives Fixed that for ya. We are functions. We feel and perform better when we function, not for ourselves but for the sake of the function itself. We perceive the value it grants; which means it is external.
did you never see the shrine to violent jealousy that was the Jerry Springer Show?
