ShakeyPink -

Uh…I cannot know what causes this feeling in you - other than it seems as if you are jealous of the attention he gives to his family and he gets from his family.

You are not in competition with his family but you are part of his family. It may be that you instinctively know that some member or members of his family are wolves in sheep’s clothing - perhaps one or more do not like you as much as they pretend. OR…it is merely something you are creating in your imagination because you are a little jealous - perhaps your own family is not as close and loving toward you as his family is toward him (for example).

I pray that the Lord opens your spiritual eyes to what it is that is causing this uncertainty in you and give you the wisdom and strength to resolve it, In Jesus’ Name, Amen.

Shalom.

I know what you feel, i am actually very familiar with the feeling....., been there... maybe if i tell you why i flet that way it might help. My selfesteem was very low although i never showed this i felt that someone finally loved me and it was very scary that he could love someone else, I wanted to be the only one he loved i wanted all the attention all the love and i was unwilling to share this, as if Family or friends were mistresses!!! It took a while but i worked on myself .. not on him..
I learned to love myself enough to know that i was worthy of being loved and that his love for me was quite different than the love he had for his family members or friends.... I prayed alot and asked God to teach me how to love myself and i somehow started it to and the insecuritites slowly disappeared..... Start looking inside yourself and loving yourself first , slowly everything will seem different to you..... Love has no Fear, and Fear sees no love.......
I will pray for you.... I hope i helped.
