Is it normal that i feel this way.. again?

my past relationship lasted for almost 3 years and within that time i learned a lotttt about jealousy, attachment, possessiveness, and just feeling like crap about myself with that person in general. took me a while but i got over all of that and was truly a better person. after that the relationship went very well until he broke up with me for a dumb reason. anyway.. now im in a new relationship and idk i just feel all those negative emotions coming back. like i have to relearn it all over again. what is this? is this normal?

    You've already realized you're doing the same thing all over again. Just reflect on your past experiences and change for the better from them. Making the same mistake twice is human, but if you're already aware you're making a mistake, take control of your emotions and fix them. In the end, jealousy is just an emotion. Think of it this way. If you're mad and you want to punch the wall, do you punch the wall? Probably not.. you'll break the dry wall. So just cause you're mad, doesn't mean you have to act on it. Same with jealosy. Accept that you have those feelings, and move on.

      Finally, an actual response! You're right; jealousy is an emotion that probably can't be completely rid of. I never really act on it. It just bothers me a little. Thank you. You have helped me more than you know.

        Hey, no problem. People always talk about jealousy like it's some unnatural, terrible thing, but everyone gets jealous. The hardest part is accepting and realizing your jealous, and dealing with the emotions accordingly, and it sounds like you've already figure that out. :)

    Please use capitals for the first-person singular nominative case personal pronoun, "I" and the derived contractions, I'd, I'll, I'm and I've.
    Please use capitals at the beginning of sentences.
    Please do not use textese, where it does not belong. (I don't know).

    Thank you.

        Incorrect, I am not an English teacher. It seems to me, though, that the English teachers have been negligent in their duty.

        Please stop wasting my time, and spreading your poor grammar all over this planet. We have already dealt with the non-word, "whatcha".
        Violation.

        Please see Rule #3.

        Transgression; Contempt, Repeat Offender.

          The public education system is deliberately dumbing students down. Instead of teaching history about the founding fathers they're teaching gay history and social engineering to our detriment. The USA used to be leaders in math and science. Now we lead in political correctness. Whatcha think homey?

            I, generally agree with your sentiment.
            The USA was once [please do not use the phrase 'used to be', as this is grammatically incorrect] a leader, in math and science.
            Now, we can repay them, for inflicting 'political correctness' on us.
            In this New Era of Enlightenment,
            We can all help to ensure that they are:
            1) Grammatically and Communicatively Correct, and / or,
            2) Scientifically Correct, and / or,
            3) Religiously Correct.

            Your ending question, "Whatcha think homey?", is acceptable, as this is clearly satirical in nature, and thus falls under the scope of Rule #5. With this said, nonstandard or slang usages should be kept where they belong.
