| Jealousy and Gay Relationships By Susie and Otto Collins Since we primarily write our material from a heterosexual framework, we recently received this question about our "No More Jealousy" course...
Here's our reply...
Thanks for your e-mail and we're glad that you're interested in overcoming your issues around jealousy.
From what you said in your comments to
us it looks like you may have made some assumptions about us
and our work that may not be correct.
We certainly don't trivialize gay
relationships and the material we offer on overcoming
jealousy may be more suitable to you than you realize.
Yes, we do continually refer in our
descriptions of "No More Jealousy" book and audio program as
they relate to problems with the opposite sex because that's
where we're coming from in our own relationship and in most
of our teachings.
In our experience, the same issues and
challenges that heterosexual couples face concerning
jealousy are also the same issues that gay and lesbian
couples face.
Yes, we understand that gay and lesbian
couples are faced with some very unique challenges that
heterosexual couples may not be faced with but when it comes
to jealousy, the issues and how you solve them are the same.
Whether you are in a gay or straight relationship--and jealousy is an problem--you are usually dealing with low self-esteem issues, differences in how each wants to interact in the world and unclear agreements. You are dealing with patterns, beliefs and mind chatter that can be changed.
We're convinced that if you could open
yourself to a place that you could forget the language that
we use in our writings and teachings about jealousy and
anywhere that we discuss male-female relationships, just
simply insert the word "partner" there or whatever name you
are more comfortable with using -- --we think that you would
find our information to be an outstanding resource for you
in overcoming your jealousy issues.
You see, jealousy is about fear about
what may or may not happen in a given relationship or
situation and there are also many elements surrounding trust
when jealousy rears its ugly head. These issues are
universal no matter what kind of relationship you're talking
about including gay and lesbian relationships.
Our recommendation is that you give the
information a try... our program is called "No More
Jealousy" and it is the best-selling program in the world on
overcoming jealousy. As we said earlier, just replace the
language with language you are more comfortable with any
time we talk about heterosexual couples and we think the
information will be very valuable to you.
