I have similar issues with Jealousy...possibly more deep seeded than your own. It boils down to insecurity about my own person and a fear of being hurt in my relationship. We'll put it this way, I've been so burned in the past I feel like I've reached a point to where I do not know if I could handle another disastrous end with someone I love so much. I wrote myself a note on my mirror for the mornings to help me cope with my problems. That and I workout a lot.
The note involves reminding myself not to take things so literal and at face value and to remember that he loves me for me. Enjoy things in the moment instead of worrying about the future. I am responsible for taking care of my mental health, and jealously only taints my ability to handle things in addition to aiding in the decline of my ability to be happy in my own relationship. Matt is aware of my insecurity issues and has been very supportive at helping me to get over that. I've actually considered seeking a psychiatrist to help me deal with issues from my past breakup that I think are still subconciously alive.
Jealousy sucks, I'm sorry you're having a hard time with it.
