jealousy is one thing that ruins relationships. never be to jealous of someone else when you know that you own her/him. if you let get in between, without a doubt, your relationship won't last. yes, you have a righ to be jealous, but make sure that you'll be jealous in a proper way. advice for couples? "if you trust each other, you'll not doubt. there's no need to be jealous because you own each other, he/she is yours. so there is no need to be jealous. be jealous if you know that things doesn't work out the way you want it to be. =)

jealousy is something that my husband and i have in common. i call it a healthy kind of jealousy. i know he doesn't like me to get too close to guys, even my gay friends. but i call it healthy because we are open about it. as in, we talk about our jealousies. whenever i see him semi-flirting with a girl (which he does, even if he denies it), i tell him that he's flirting and i noticed it. this way, with open communication, our jealousy does not lead to any hidden anger or pain. and things get cleared out immediately if we have issues about it.

that's true. i know somebody who is so jealous sometimes to the extent that he hurts his girl physically just so he can make her admit that she was flirting with somebody. sometimes, he becomes quite unreasonable and it pains me to see his girl suffer for this. but i do not want to meddle in their affairs so i try to comfort his girl as much as i can.

Jealousy can be prevented if each partner will be open to each other. Hiding secrets are the most common cause of jealousy from partners. Partners should be open and honest by heart, not only because that's the right way they think but should be mainly because each partner love each other truthfully. Also don't take small things too seriously, that's the root of jealousy. Show your partner that you can be trusted to earn her trust, do it by heart.

It helps to let a jealous partner know that he or she can talk to you about his or her feelings; that you will listen to a partner’s fears and anxieties and try to understand where he or she is coming from.

I think jealousy is a feeling that you cant control, when you love someone it is very easy to feel insecure, that you could lose them, I think the secret is to cover up your fears, don't let them see the way you feel, it is very hard these days to trust with all the open flirting coming from both genders and people don't seem to care these days if people are already in a relationship so if you are feeling jealous it is normal just don't let it show.

but jealousy should never be always associated with insecurity i merely look at it as a tingly feeling that somebody feels sometimes

That is true, but somehow a person should also know the signs of jealousy. People should be more aware of their feelings, they should understand the symptoms of jealousy trying to cripple their minds. It is the most hardest part to deal with, in having a relationship. We should all act with accordance to what we see, think within it and talk if ever misunderstandings would erupt..

You're right. I sometimes get jealous becuase...I don't even know why. But you're right. Jealousy is a very ugly thing. The problem is that we all get jealous from time to time. It's a normal human emotion but some are more than others.

I agree but this is easier said than done, especially for me. I just hate it when my girl gives more importance to other guys. It makes me feel like an insignificant part of her life.

Jealousy doesn't have to be in just the "couples" thing. It can be in any sort of relationship from neighbors to work to love to family. Jealousy is intertwined with the seven deadly sins. It's not something anyone should do but at the same time I don't think it's something that anyone does on purpose. It's a natural instinct at times and the key is to figure out how to deal with it in a good way and not make any rash decisions when jealousy gets involved.

Yea. Infact, one trait of love is: it is not jealous
