Back Once More

[azurelunatic]

It looks like Peace and his ex are reconciling with each other. After four months of not speaking to one another, the lines of communication are again open. They're talking, e-mailing, and have made plans to get together for lunch some time.

It's nice to see it when something's going right in the life of a good friend.

...so why does my stomach sink? Jealousy is the root of all evil.

Jealousy is a two edged sword. It protects the lover by driving away rivals. It gives the anger and power to do so. But what if the lover is the one who is seeking someone else? You love him and want him to be happy. You would choose someone nice for him; someone who would be good to him; someone whom you would like yourself. Jealousy is a totally bad feeling and you have to find some way to stop it.
Drive away the rival?
Stop seeing the lover so you don't have to witness the cause of jealousy?
Make friends with the rival?
Realize that the lover and the rival deserve eachother and that you got off scot free and good riddance?
Tell the lover you don't want to share his affections and make him choose?
There wouldn't be jealousy without love so it has to be a good thing in a way. It lets you know you truely love someone for one thing. It is the reproductive imperative. We must love. This Fayoumis has no solutions.
