    Jealously? i think its when you have this gut feeling that you really like someone and you dont want anyone speaking to them i think. I remember i had fallen for a sexy looking girl and that night i couldnt get her out of my head. i thought about her at school, and went to bed that night a 5 am school night because i couldnt get her out of my head. Women, look what they can do to you.

    I dunno if you'd call it jealousy but my b/f thinks his cousin fancies me but he knows that I don't fancy his cousin so he isn't all protective & shit & I think 1 of my mates fancies my b/f & I know that he don't fancy her but sumtimes me & my b/f get a bit pissed off wit each other when his cousin & my mate flirt wit each of us but we can trust each other so we know nothing will happen. I hope that makes sense.

    I think jealousy when your with a partner is lack of trust! if you had enough trust in your partner then you wouldn't need to be worried that your partner would run off with someone else.

    If there is no trust then there should be no relationship. Trust is a major part of a relationship!!!

    Some jealosy is definitely useful. It shows that you you like your partner and don't take him/her for granted, i.e. you realise that s/he is fanciable! I take slight jealousy as a compliment. Extremes however can make your life hell.

    I agree! I could never have a relationship with someone who wouldn't let me talk to the opposite sex.


    The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched - they must be felt with the heart.

    I think that when someone's suffered or been mistreated/betrayed in the past it can be harder to trust and so lots of jealousy is perfectly understandable. If you're with someone who's jealous, they'll probably learn to trust you around other people and be less jealous, given time (and faithfulness).

    I think jealousy is often a result of insecurity caused by some sort of pain - so try and understand and help someone who's jealous rather than saying that if they don't stop being jealous you can't go out with them.

    I agree that a little bit of jealousy is normal and probably a good thing; if you love someone then you want as much of their attention as possible, don't you <IMG alt="image" SRC="http://www.thesite.org/ubb/smile.gif"&gt;
