How to I peacefully handle jealousy?
Hi everyone, Iβm back with another question and Iβd really appreciate some insight. Thereβs a girl I work with, Cristina, and her energy toward me has become very obvious. Sheβs been projecting a lot of jealousy, and Iβm not judging that as good or bad, itβs just the reality of what sheβs putting out. I donβt think Iβm better than her, and I donβt try to be. I simply show up as myself, and apparently my frequency is something she feels she canβt compete with. Thatβs not something I created, and itβs not something Iβm responsible for fixing. The situation gets complicated because we both work with Kevin, someone I care about deeply, and who cares about me just as much. For personal reasons, he and I havenβt labeled anything yet, but we both know exactly what we are to each other. Weβre taking our time and letting things unfold naturally. Cristina is also attracted to him, but not in a genuine way. Itβs more about attention and validation. When Kevin is kind or attentive toward me, it clearly bothers her. She wants all eyes on her, and lately sheβs been trying to provoke reactions, positioning herself, emphasizing her body, or trying to create the illusion of intimacy with him. Not because she actually cares about Kevin the way I do, but because she wants to get under my skin. Normally, Iβm very good at ignoring that kind of behavior. But last night she crossed a line. She did something disrespectful toward Kevin purely to trigger me, and it worked, I got boiling angry. Not because Iβm insecure, but because she used him as a prop and tried to violate a boundary she had no right to touch. I was a genuine friend to her, and she betrayed that trust. So I stepped back. I stopped engaging. And the moment I didnβt chase her or try to smooth things over, she couldnβt handle it. She lost access to my energy, and now sheβs realizing she doesnβt stand on the same level she once assumed she did. So hereβs my question: How do you stay rooted in your power when someone is sending you that heavy, jealous, evil-eye energy? How do you keep your frequency clean and sovereign when someone is actively trying to pull you into their insecurities.
