Is it normal for your ex to feel jealous of another women???
And not a real woman , a celebrity !!!!

See , we are still best friends, and hang out almost daily ... yesterday she eyed the picture of a lady celebrity I had as a desktop background on my laptop , and muttered something about how much better looking she is , and that I should put up her picture instead.

I could feel the jealousy burning through me , yikes , that is not healthy for her at all ... The problem is we are both best friend of the other ,been so for 12 years , since highschool, so not seeing each other is out of the question.

Human relations are way too complicated

1. I imagine it's very normal.
I keep waiting for my STBE husband to get himself a girlfriend so I can get over that miserable stage of the divorce. I am actually jealous of the wife of one of my college boyfriends, though I haven't seen him for over twenty years!

2. I see nothing normal about jealousy
Especially that silly, stifling kind of jealousy. What a waste of time!

Of course, I'm a woman who sends my husband hot photos of women I've found online so maybe I'm the one who's weird. :shrug:

4. My experience of divorce is that it is incredibly painful and at the time
Edited on Fri Nov-14-08 07:10 PM by Mike 03
it played all sorts of tricks on my mind. I know that it's easier said than done, but for me the key was to keep moving forward no matter how hard it was, and even if it required severing contacts with friends.

It is one of the most traumatic things a person can experience. My heart goes out to you, and to anyone going through a difficult divorce.

It is a life altering event.
