Are you jealous?

[Nataly 38]

So... Are you? (Jealous.)
Do you think it's normal to be jealous?
Do you think it's normal to NOT be jealous?
Do you think it's only normal when the other person's behaviour makes you doubt their faithfulness?

Well, if I can't choose an answer *and* boobies, then I'll just opt for boobies.

Being jealous is a wasteful human emotion,,,you either are confidant in your relationship or you are not,,i loved having guys hit on my wife,,,i always knew she was going home with me..... ;-)

So... Are you? (Jealous.) == I voted the "I'm a woman - sometimes" option

Do you think it's normal to be jealous? == Yes

Do you think it's normal to NOT be jealous? == Yes, everyone's definition and/or comfort level is different

Do you think it's only normal when the other person's behaviour makes you doubt their faithfulness? == I call that a gut that's screaming at you. That's what I go by for most situations whether it's fidelity related or just other stuff in life.

Never been jealous. Don't "get" jealousy...

My boyfriend is jealous... He *tries* not to be, but whenever we are in public, he clutches onto me possessively like some other guy might whisk me away when he's not looking... Doesn't make any sense to me because I've never given him any reason to doubt me.

I'm like jumpwally - I see someone coming on to my man, and I feel proud/pleased that I get all that handsomeness to myself! He's sexy as hell - it would be weird if I was the only one who noticed!!!

Jealousy is the path to the dark side. Jealousy leads to anger. Anger leads to hate. Hate leads to suffering. I sense much fear in you. Much to learn, you still have.

I dated someone just like that. We were on vacation and I went for a run and the gym in the morning and he freaked out. Crazy fucker.

So you've never told him about your dizzy.com stalkers?

Jealous? Really? I mean REALLLY!?
You surly jest!
That will be all.

So far I'm the only gal that voted straight "no". It just never occurs to me. I've been cheated on (before mrowc6), and I was the last to know. It seems a waste of time and energy, because it sure as heck isn't going to stop him from straying.

Maybe, I'm just plain clueless.

Such fairytale idyllic double dribble you speak, step away from the bong..., your senses are weak!

Jealousy is the path to enlightenment if your emotions are governed by the soul. . .the dark side is where go those, who heart looks only out - and never in.

Anger is healthy it proves you're alive, it no more leads to hate than contentment does. . . nor does happy lead to love.

The opposite of love is not hate, it's indifference...much to learn indeed.

Bingo.

Jealously is all about lack of trust. If you have trust, you don't have jealousy.

I dont give a shit what anybody else has, even though I don't have much myself. What matters is living within your means and being happy with that. Fuck all the fancy gadgets/cars/houses bullshit.

As long as you're within your means and you want it, its fine with me.

Somehow I was thinking of those pro ball players who had multimillion dollar contracts and now are out of the sport and broke already. Fucking dumb asses....

Impossible - I was first to vote and I put "No"

I don't think it's because I'm clueless or because I don't care... I'm just not jealous (either in a relationship, or of what other people have/accomplish).

When I was younger I was a little hot headed and tended to get jealous a lot. I think I grew out of it though. I realized how useless the emotion was and how much trouble it caused.

Now I just go with the flow and don't let things bother me, if anything the things I used to flip out about now amuse me.

And I honestly think skydiving helped me with this. The adrenaline fueled hippy love vibe makes jealousy kinda pointless.

Sex with sith is like sex with a stripper. A lot of flashing lights and waving of glowing sabers, but in the end you end up with something dark and wrinkely.

Nope. I figure I either trust my partner or I don't. If I do, I have nothing to worry about. If I don't, there's a bigger issue there, and I need to reevaluate the relationship.

[wmw999 2,114]

Never jealous about people (I've lived with it, and it really sucks). Sometimes jealous about opportunities, so I had to answer "almost never." Because, well, that's accurate. It's not a positive thing, and I realize that. But such is life.

I voted yes sometimes.

I see jealousness as a manisfestation of self doubt. So when I get a sense of jealousy, I explore why I am feeling it and work on that.

I am in a much different relationship than most though.
