Read on to find out how can one deal with jealous women friends.
Be a listener
Donât share all the happiness of your life that you know might affect her mental status. If you have got a new boyfriend at the time when she had a break up, be quite. Donât let her know, instead be the nice friend and help her out of the misery. Be a good listener and try to make her feel that life isnât that bad. Usually, being a girl clearly means that you love talking, understand the point that she does too. Have an equal go at this and share some good moments with her that you will surely cherish in the future.
Understand the reason
Try and figure out the reason behind her behavior. Was she very ugly or fat in her childhood that has made her so insecure? Did she not have a healthy upbringing? Being jealous purely means insecurities. Try and know the main reason behind this and talk to her about it. You are that one person who can take her out of the mess and why shouldnât you do this. You are her friend, if she needs help, put some efforts and get her out of it.
Keep your cool
Donât lose your patience if you come to know she is talking behind your back. Try and understand the fact that the only reason why she is jealous of you because you have what she doesnât and surely secretly wishes to have it too. Avoid the childish behavior, rather enjoy the moment that your friend secretly wishes to live your life. Try and analyze the situation: suppose if someday you were on the flip side, will you feel the same? Will you be jealous if she gets a new car and you donât even have an old one? Be patient and be the nice girl!
Plan your time with her
If you feel that your friend is not getting over the jealousy phase, try and create some distance between you two. Plan an outing after a weekâs time and give yourself some space. Meanwhile, even she will realize your importance and value this relationship between you and her. Fortunately she will get over the silly stage of jealousy and be a good friend to you again. She isnât a bad person; she is just upset of the fact that whatever you have she doesnât. Understand this and see how better you feel about yourself.

What if she turns out to be the greatest friend ever someday? You got to be yourself i.e. nice, kind and a humble human being. Help her and help yourself build a strong relationship with her.
