Jealousy no one Talks about: Retroactive Jealousy or Retrospective Jealousy

Absolutely everyone, at some point, we have talked about jealousy. Whether it’s because previous couples were jealous of us or why not? Recognize that we also do it or did it at some point.

However, hardly anyone talks or knows what retroactive jealousy is. What are these, and how do they work? Retroactive jealousy, also called retrospective jealousy, is a type of jealousy that appears solely and exclusively, knowing our partners' sentimental and sexual past. Normal jealousy occurs in present situations, but retroactive jealousy is derived from Ex-relationships.

The person who suffers from this type of jealousy suffers deeply when imagining how his partner could have a sentimental and sexual bond with previous exes.

They are both obsessed with looking for things related to their partners' past as constantly asking questions about what their previous sentimental and sexual ties were like, looking for past comments from exes in photos and other social media posts, stalking exes, etc.

People with this kind of jealousy come to mind “flashbacks” of things they never saw or imagine when their partners were having sex or kissing with their previous exes.

This jealousy, like traditional jealousy, can also destroy a relationship and make it harmful; they get out of control by becoming obsessed in an unhealthy way with our partner’s past.

In addition to the constant fights they have with the sentimental partner, the motive is always what they did in their sentimental and sexual past.

The way to treat this jealousy is to attend therapy.
