I get jealous of couples in public. How to turn off that feeling?

[Rozay Oro]

I know I have bytched on here a lot bout women on here when I get romantically rejected but I’m done. I’ve sobered up

As much as I love [Orthodox] Christianity.

Maybe I’m just meant to be scum. I’m sober but maybe I just need p*ssy to chill. I don’t know how to stop being jealous of loving couples in public. I get very sad, it’s so annoying. I wish I was a stone cold narcissist or psychopath.

Please don’t hate, I’m focusing on pursuing electrical engineering (not solely for money but something I can be proud of) and I go to therapy. I plan to see a psychologist soon to get a diagnosis on disorder(s) and etc. I tried antidepressants for 2 weeks but life without boners is gay.

Make fun of me but give solid input please. Trying to figure this out.

Don’t think about it

Or take emotion out of it. Relationships come and go sometimes. Just focus on yourself knowing your time will come again

When you feel jealous you need to recognize it as a temporary emotional state, not an identity. That's the first thing to do.
Practice labeling the feeling “I’m feeling lonely” instead of judging yourself “I’m pathetic”.

At the times when you blaming urself, try responding with curiosity rather than criticism: “Why am I hurting?” instead of “What’s wrong with me?”

You need to start being smart about it with strategy instead of emotion.

This is how incels feel. You only feel that way cuz you cant have that. Once you've had it and realize how it aint all it's cracked up to be this feeling will go away. You'll think damn I'm glad I aint gotta deal with all that instead.

I’m not the most good looking guy but I can get matches on tinder and get sex.

I just want a girlfriend not a girl to solely have sex with. Corny

Those couples you see most likely have problems or are about to. No couple is perfect. You do not know what other people are going through.

I'm as bad as you in terms of being a failure. Likely worst. But couples don't offend me. I'm happy for other people's success.

You place it as a level of importance in your head and since you are unable to obtain it, you turn to jealously. Don't let that be considered a priority. Then you won't care.
