You would regard it as a sign of love and appreciate it or would this annoy you?

In jealousy there is more self-love than love. ~François, Duc de La Rochefoucauld, 1665~ Jealousy is a means of control. ( stop what your doing or else!) There was once a wife so jealous that when her husband came home one night and she couldn’t find hairs on his jackets she yelled at him, "Great, so now you’re cheating on me with a bald woman!" The next night, when she didn’t smell any perfume, she yelled again by saying, "She’s not only bald, but she’s too cheap to buy any perfume!"

thanks for the response. Self love? Isn't all love a self love thing subconsciously? is there true love? It's also interesting that someone from 1665 said such a pychology based thing.

I think it depends on the levels of jealousy. If he's just slightly annoyed, slightly worried but not to the point that it'll ruin your relationship, what's the harm? I myself get a wee jealous sometimes. But I get over it quick. Or my boyfriend and I talk it out and we realize we were being silly in being jealous... However if the jealousy is really bad, it's a turn off. I had one ex who never wanted me to go out with my friends. He didn't trust me going to work. Wanted to know what I was doing all the time. Called constantly to check up on me. It drove me nuts!

Being jealous with the one you love is a normal feeling. But if it is too much it is not healthy. In every relationship there should be trust for both partners. And too much of jealousy can lead to break up or it always leads to fights. If there are problems regarding your relationship with your partner the best thing to do is talk with each other. Be honest as possible with your feelings towards the situation. And it will really be a great help of having a good relationship.

Little bit jealousy is natural thing and there is no need to freak out becasue of it. But when partner turn over possessive and controlling then it start affecting relationship.Some time these kind of people turn emotionally abusive as well.Thus its better to get out it when things start going to extreme. If things start going to extreme then yes it is going to annoy me.

I about jealous is good if not much. Having not much jealous you feel the love but having much jealous are annoying and having sense of problem.Why I said that because the person that are make much jealous with you to what are doing are the one doing it to you. That's why he/she don't want you do it to her/him.
