About this episode
The episode discusses retroactive jealousy and the impact of comparing oneself to a partner's ex, emphasizing that love is not a ranking system.
He treats you amazingly, reassures you constantly, and gives you no reason to doubt him, so why can’t you stop comparing yourself to his ex? Today, we’re chatting about retroactive jealousy and the fear of wondering if you’ll ever measure up. Spoiler alert: love is not a ranking system, and somebody existing before you does not make your relationship less meaningful. 💌 Send in your submissions this season here ! 📲 Follow YSS on Instagram & TikTok . 💬 Join the YSS Facebook community .
