vince1128 Posted November 4, 2008 Posted November 4, 2008 I'll admit, I have gotten jealous at times. The current girl im with DOES NOT GET JEALOUS AT ALL OVER ANYTHING EVER! I don't know if she can hide it well or what, but i'm not sure if its a good thing. I was dating an extremely beautiful girl, someone all my friends were impressed over and I wasnt really trying to impress this girl with the other girl but I dont think it wouldve hurt my case. Anyways, I think that in relationships it can be healthy to an extent, it keeps a steady interest in one another. What are your opinions?, is jealousy ever a good thing in a relationship? PS: I do realize that to an extreme jealousy can kill a relationship
Nikki Sahagin Posted November 4, 2008 Posted November 4, 2008 Normal, natural jealousy is GOOD for a relationship. If gives you that kick that reminds you that you've got a good thing and you shouldn't take it for granted! We all sometimes get too cosy and forget to truly value people that really make our life's what they are but jealousy is that healthy, slightly uncomfortable jolt that tells you - I still want them, I still need them and I sure as hell will do my best to keep being with them! But jealousy can escalate to unhealthy levels, for instance becoming jealous not just of threats from other men but threats of friends, work, activities, sports, family etc taking priority and time away from your relationship. As long as you can keep a healthy perspective on jealousy and as long as you're jealousy isn't founded in realistic grounds i.e. she kissed this guy before so i'm jealous when she's around him - then i'd say you're fine!
