Compersion
Jealousy is so rampant in Western culture that most people
have ZERO comprehension of the concept of compersion. Compersion is the state of empathetic happiness and joy experienced
when an individual's romantic partner experiences happiness and joy through an outside source, including, but not limited
to, another romantic interest. This can be experienced as any form of emotional empathy, depending on the person experiencing
the emotion. The concept was originally coined by the now defunct Kerista commune in San Francisco. Compersion has often
been referred to as "the opposite of jealousy"
