It is natural to us to be jealous. Even animals or insect as i see in the discovery channel, feels jealous. I am jealous every time I see my girl talking to any guys even if it is her officemate or friends. I know theirs nothing to be jealous but, I believe that my girlfriend love me so much. I just couldn't stop my self being jealous.

It's a common feeling to be jealous. It's just a matter of how to control it and to assure yourself.

Yes. I agree to that but sometimes, if you feel it, emotions is very hard to control. You can do unexpected things because of it. Thank you mabelk for the response...

My friend as proof of my humanhood I say I do feel jealous also and infact many times. I jealous of my brother, friends, and people that I know they leave there life happily. Now to remedy the jealousy that I felt, I tend to take it as a challenge whenever I feel that way. I know its not that easy but once you try to do something on it, it'll really makes you feel you have overpass jealousy. If we let jeolousy take over our feelings then who knows this might end into a violent action and then later you realize its not worth it. Hope people do realize that life isn't stop right there. Life goes on and we must do something good to live life happily.

of course, i'd get jealous if my love one wouldn't mind me at all and instead, prefers to shower all his attention on someone else. as for your being jealous of your girffriend for talking her officemates, you better take hold of it. it is natural for her to be talking to them because they are in one workplace. it is okay though if you tell her about it without picking any quarrel at all.

I am not a jealous person. I have been very happily married for almost 20 yrs....While I admit that inmy younger days....I could not say that...but now I can. I just do not have the energy to waste on this emtion anymore....I believe that if my husband wants to be with someone else...there is nothing I can do about it...I care really but I just can not prevent it..I refuse to spend my time worrying about it. Also, if he does not want to be here then I do not want him here!! I know that sounds really simple.... black and white...but being a realistic person...that is the facts..you just can not force someone to love you, to be honest with you, to be true to you; they have to WANT to be there or it is just a waste of time and emotions!! What an interesting topic.....thank you, my friend and have a blessed day!

Thank you tinamwhite for the response. Yes, your right. We must be practical in this matter although feelings is very hard to control, we must think that their is nothing we can do if our worries is factual. Sometimes too much jealousy could ruin a relationship.

Thank you so much for the honor of "best response". I do tend to be a realistic person.....I have seen jealousy ruin realtionships as you say and it makes me sad to think that an "insecurity" could destroy love. Do you think I am being too harsh on "jeaousy"? It is a human emotion I know; but do you really believe that it is purely instinct or actually a psychological insecurity? Anyway, that is just a thought....take care, my friend.
