I've only recently being diagnosed with Aspergers so I have many questions. This is my first post on this forum . I've realised that I get very jealous whenever someone does something better than me. I have a long term girlfriend who I trust very much but I can't stop myself from getting jealous. Whenever she does something without me (even like go out for a meal with her family) or when she achieves well in an exam or when she mentions when she got accepted into a University, I get very jealous and I really wish I didn't because I love her a lot but I always feel like I get jealous when she does something better than me. I get this feeling over anybody but I think because I am closest to her I feel the emotion stronger. Is jealousy like this usual for someone with aspergers and do you have any tips on dealing with it? I'd appreciate it if you could tell me things that you get jealous over so I can put my mind to rest.
Thank you.
