How to Not be Jealous of Your Husband’s Ex-Wife
If you are married to a man who was married before, you may find yourself feeling a bit jealous of his ex-wife at times. Even if the relation between your husband and his ex-wife finished due to a bitter divorce, you may still find yourself feeling a bit paranoid that your husband has feelings for her or misses her, or that the ex-wife is trying to return to your husband’s life. Such feeling of paranoiad and jealousy is not healthy and will surely be keeping you from feeling relaxed, which is why you should make an effort to get over this jealousy and enjoy your life with your husband to the fullest.

One of the most important things that you need to do in order to stop feeling jealous of your husband’s ex-wife is to realise your own value. You need to acknowledge the fact that you are with your husband now, while the ex-wife is gone, which is a clear indication of the fact that you are the most precious thing in his life and that is why he returns to you never night. Keeping these things in mind will help you stay happy, satisfied and confident.

Instead of feeling jealous of your husband’s ex-wife, try to understand her feelings. You need to understand that it is never easy for a woman to go through divorce and the fact that your husband got married to someone as beautiful and nice as you is bound to make her feel even more miserable. While there is nothing you can do about her misery, the least you can do is to show a bit of empathy and stop getting jealous or bitter. You need to convince yourself that your husband’s ex-wife is not trying to steal him away from you and even if she is, there are better ways to handle the situation than simply getting jealous of her.

The relation between a husband and wife is based on trust. The day this trust begins to fade is the day when the marriage begins to fall apart. If you truly love your husband and want your marriage to last forever, then you must continue to trust him and have faith in his loyalty and feelings towards you. If your husband is being nice to his ex-wife, there is no reason for you to start becoming paranoid or jealous.

Be nice to your step-children, if any. Do not get consumed by your jealous and take out your frustration by being to the children of your husband and his ex-wife. If your husband loves his children dearly and gives more attention to them than you, then understand that he is simply being a good father.
