So about 6 months ago I found out who my guy's ex was and I wish I never had. I've been very nervous and anxious about her, although I know I have no real reason to be. I guess it stems from feeling not as attractive as her and thinking he compares me,even though after seeing pictures of her, we have a lot of physical similarities she occupies my mind like an obstacle would be I know she really isn't. Any advice on how to tame my monkey mind and stop worrying about this girl? I don't wish any harm or anything on her, it just bothers me that she's on my mind so much.

Kinda reminds me of this scene from Cheers:
Yeah, stuff like this is common. Sounds like a jealousy/ self-esteem issue. Your ego thinks it's in the jungle, so it sees her as a threat so you can protect yourself and your "property". That's just how we're wired, fears are there to protect us, but we're not in the jungle anymore so it can hold us back from good stuff if we let it control us.
What helps a lot is to just meditate and then write a list of all the attractive traits that you have and how your bf loves those traits in you. Write about all the things that make you attractive. And see in your bf that he prefers you, remember those moments. And then just go back to that when you need a boost, live life doing what makes you feel very attractive.

This is completely true.
Subconsciously, his ex cant send love with visualization or by prayer to his soul. Your love is much stronger. You have RS and LOA to create and communicate. Be happy and use it for your benefits when needed.

100% I realized soon after writing the post that it was inner child calling out. Retreating back to those times as a chubby little girl I felt like I wasn't good enough compared to the "pretty" girls and wouldn't be liked. Even though over the last few years my looks have improved significantly and I'm often told I'm pretty it comes up sometimes, you know? I did a ho'oponopono meditation and apologized to my inner child, I feel soooo much better!

You're absolutely right, thanks so much for replying! I definitely don't wanna have negative thoughts towards her or resist thinking about her all together cause what w resists persists, should I send her positivity when I think of her?
