Default Do you ever get jealous

Do you ever get jealous?

How do you handle jealousy? Way back , i resorted to pouring drinks on heads ha ha! These days however (now that i am a big girl) i simply walk away. I have realised it is more of a security issue. If ya feel insecure then your likely to do stupid things. I feel that if a chick if flirting with my man, it now makes me feel good knowing someone else is attracted to him. If the flirting gets over powering, i just walk away, if he takes the bait from another chick then dumping becomes an issue (ie: I catch him kissing or whatever). Do you keep ya cool or are you prone to losing it?

I think jealousy is part of a healthy relationship, a little jealousy is perfectly normal, to me it shows that you care about that person. In my opinion, if your mate goes out with a friend of the oposite sex, it's normal to feel jealous. When my mate goes out with a friend that is oposite sex, i do feel jealous, I would never stop him from seeing his friends, but the jealousy just means that I wish I was with him. If your mate goes out with the oposite sex and you are jealous because you don't trust him, then there is a problem in the relationship.
But that's just my opinion, i try to talk to my mate about how i feel on actions taken and keep those feelings in the open, always say that comunication is the key!

If one did that I would tell them its to late because they got him now full time. Sure it would be tempting to shoot him in the****so he can't never use it again, but there are laws that say we can't do that. So I guess all that would be left is go home change the locks and sell all of his stuff for a dollar. Hey, I can dream can't I. To tell the truth I don't know what I would do.

I AM THE GREEN EYED MONSTER...or rather I have green eyes...

I think the allusion comes from brown eyed people noticing the people with green eyes are more aggressive. But seriously.

Jealousy is a WARNING...meaning "get out". There is no such thing as a guy going out with his friend of the opposite sex, number one, and leaving you home.

Richard Pryor used to have a joke about this:

The white man goes out with his buddies and the white woman says" Later honey, have a good time !"

The black woman says....give me 20....I gotta get ready !"

Its how you see yourself. Are you really stupid enough to buy guy "lines"...

Not me, I'll cancel a date before it gets there. That's me. I'm not stupid.

If I have a man I ain't workin' my ass for nothing on him. And he can expect the same of me...100 percent.

Jealousy? Where does this come from? hmmm, And better yet how often do you feel these feelings? To me we get the feeling of jealousy when our partners are evidently doing something that we feel is inappropriate for supposedly being in a one-on-one relationship.

However, I find men love to say things such as "you're crazy, I wasn't flirting with her."
Even after everyone else in the place noticed it

It all comes back to trust. If you have no trust, you will always have jealousy. I admit there are some who need total control and are jealous whether there is a reason or not. But 9 X out of 10, if there are feelings of jealousy, there are reasons for it. And don't let anyone tell you that you're nuts. Your eyes and gut insticts will not lie.

What are you talking about, lady?!

Green eyed monster is another name for jealousy. Shakespeare coined that term for it in his play Othello. And the entire world has been using it since then.

This has nothing to do with people with green eyes.

And you call yourself a writer

Jealousy is a selfish and childish emotion. Concerned only for yourself, not for the wishes, desires or needs of others.

Yes, I've been guilty of it. (we all have at some time)

Learning to deal with jealous feelings, and accepting what is happening, is part of being an adult.

Acting out, as a result of jealousy is: stupid, immature and childish.

I've never been jealous myself in a relationship. I've been jealous of someone else maybe for other things, but that's been years ago when I was much younger. As you mature, you realize that those that seem to have an easy life and have everything handed to them aren't always the happiest or most fulfilled.

i think I've only been jealous maybe twice in my life and I DID NOT LIKE the way it felt. I knew it stemmed from insecurity about the guy's feelings for me.
It's been a very long time since I have felt those feelings.

I rationalize that if the guy truly didn't want to be with me and displayed this, then why would I want to be with him? I'd be sad, maybe even angry, but then at least I know that he's not the right guy for me.
