Dear iamfreee:

I bet it is very difficult to live with this jealousy at the boyfriend, so no wonder you want to be free of this jealously, this distress.

There is the one issue in my last post to you and you addressed some of it, trying to see Molly as an individual different from you having some similarities and also, differences. Then there is the issue of jealousy.

I am trying now to connect the jealousy to your experience with your mother or father. Did you try very hard, as a child, to get the attention of either one, only someone else, or other people took your father or mother away from you? Someone took their attention away from you?
