Hi guys, Love is an undefinable emotion that we have and I believe that possessiveness is also a form of love. So, all you lovers and marrieds guys and gals, can you tell me how possessive you are? Is possessiveness right or wrong??

I'm really not possessive. I trust my fiance, and I have absolutely no reason to be possessive, or anything like that. I don't think that it's healthy to be possessive. It's something that I believe, which is why I'm not possessive and really try not to be. It's not a good idea.

Okay, but i don't think that it is intentionally done, because what my experience is, it just happens and you are right, what all i have done or said being possessive was wrong, but still am possessive. What can I do :-)

and I don't think its because i don't trust my better half, its because I don't trust others and that too, whom i don't know personally. :-)

If you truly trusted your better half, it would NOT matter what others do. She will be faithful if she truly loves you. If she can be swayed by someone else so easily, let her go. It's NOT love!!!

Possessiveness is NOT a form of love. It is a form of insecurity!!! If someone I love becomes possessive, I run the other way!!!

In my opinion, you are most definitely WRONG!!! When you love someone, you share your heart & soul with them!!! Once you feel the need to possess someone, you no longer share your heart with them. You're demanding they give their heart to you. That is NOT love in any form or fashion!!! Love is the willingness to give & take whatever comes. A form of total sharing!!! Once you start to possess, you are sharing NOTHING!!!

I honestly do not think possessiveness is a form of love. I think it is a form of obsessive lust. How can you love someone while trying to be possessive of them? I am not possessive, but I will make it known subtly to any woman attempting to hit on my boyfriend; something small like put my arm around him or kiss his cheek.

I think we should never keep restrictions to the person we love. We can restrict to some extend, but should never restrict the freedom of the person we love. If we do, then it is never true love.

Yup you are right, I understand it now. Possessiveness is a kind of restriction that we want to put on someone whom we love so much, though unknowingly, but with the advises from your side, i have decided to change my perspective. Thank you to you all. You guys just helped me to solve a clash between me and my love, thank you guys.

I also think possessiveness is a form of love. Everyone in the world seeks more love and more care in all form of relationship. Sometimes we get possessive with our friends and with the person we love. I also think possessive is a form of love. Sometimes people love never realize how possessive we can and sometimes can hurt us by giving more care to other person in front of us. Too much possessive is always harmful.

I'm 29, and until a month ago I have never been a jealous or possessive person. The guy I was dating at the time was extremely popular, especially with the ladies and kept assuring me that I wouldn't lose him. When he mentioned talkint to another particular woman a bit then I got that way. FAST.

That happens, that is quite understandable for me.
