Comparison, Jealousy, and Stop Thinking About Your Ex Being Happy

Do you remember the episode with Sophie? She felt frustrated about an ex moving on so quickly after the end of their 12-year relationship. That call, and the fact that we’re in the season of engagement which often induces comparison and feelings of jealousy, have inspired me to expand on this discussion.
