Truckers, whether they are men or women, who feel a lot of jealousy, but do not want that feeling to destroy their relationship, can follow the recommendations below:

1- Identifying possible situations of jealousy and controlling those impulsive behaviors.
Every person, man or woman, must anticipate this feeling by using the head to reason and prevent a reaction that could damage the moment.
How: If you are aware of the jealousy problem that afflicts you, you must control yourself and at the same time analyze the situation, checking if there is any logic in the mistrust you feel of your couple.

2- Asking themselves if they feel emotionally independent from their partners.
The professionals of the wheel must identify if they are people who always seek for the approval of their couple for everything, as a way to increase their self-esteem, suffering from an emotional dependence on that person and change that way to see themselves.
How: Identifying this problem is the first step that truckers must take, which must then be followed by an effort to seek to feel good about themselves, avoid underestimating themselves and bet on their strengths.

3. Give all the love and affection that your partner is needing, physically and verbally. That will increase that person`s self-esteem.
