From the author
Half a minute on this
The same voice as the book, shorter.
How to understand jealousy, calm your insecurity, and build trust that lasts.
Does any of this sound familiar?
- You check, and the relief lasts about four minutes.
- You have read a conversation you were not meant to read, and felt worse either way.
- You ask a question you already know the answer to, hoping the answer sounds different.
- They say you are being paranoid, and you are no longer sure.
- You are exhausted by a betrayal that has not happened.
What this book is
A book for both sides of jealousy: when it is you, and when it is them. It separates the kind that is information from the kind that is an old wound, and gives you something to do about each.
What it is not
A promise that the feeling disappears. Jealousy is not a defect, it is a signal. The work is reading it correctly instead of obeying it.
What is inside
Part I. Understanding jealousy: where it comes from, what it is for, and the difference between a signal and a story.
Part II. When you are the jealous one: checking, the questions that make it worse, and what to do with the first ten minutes.
Part III. When your partner is jealous: control dressed as love, what to agree on, and what not to concede.
Part IV. Jealousy in special situations: exes, work, social media, open arrangements, and after a real betrayal.
Part V. Building secure trust: how trust is actually rebuilt, in steps, by both people.

Questions
How do I receive the book?
Is the translation a machine translation?
Will it show up on my bank statement?
If you are afraid of your partner, start somewhere else.
If you have been threatened, hurt or controlled, or you think that raising this could put you or your children at risk, contact your local emergency number or a domestic violence service before anything else. Your safety comes before any question these books discuss.
