Let's say for example someone who has a crush on you or someone who really likes you is talking with you. But of course you are just talking to him/her just to respect him/her as a person but you are very faithful to your partner. You have no feelings for that guy/girl because your boyfriend/girlfriend is your only one. Then your boyfriend/girlfriend get jealous, are you getting annoyed or you will find it sweet? Are you getting annoyed because you would feel that your boyfriend/girlfriend doesn't trust you or you will just consider your boyfriend/girlfriend sweet for being jealous? For me, I find it sweet since for me, it just appeared that my girlfriend really cares for me and she just doesn't want me to be taken by others. How about you, what are your thoughts about this, do you get annoyed when your boyfriend/girlfriend is getting jealous? I would be glad to hear from you. Have a nice day! Happy myLotting!

I don't think as you.Maybe jealousy is just a sign of love, only when that comes occasionally.If he is always jealous of the people around you or other things,no matter what you explain.what are you gone to do? I also thought that was so sweet when he was getting jealous,but later i found that he is always suspicious of me,even don't believe in me at all.that totally screw me up,cause i don't know how to deal with this situation.That's very ridiculous,when i told him the truth,he deemed i lied to him,but when i intentional lied to him as he assumed in order to know if he didn't trust me at all,he believed totally!oh,god,he is even willing to believe the lie that he assumed by himself but not trust me! He always think i like tempting other guys or talking with others.He saw my mails slinkingly,and found i still sent some mails to my ex-boyfriend,then he got angry with me,even said i didn't worthy for his love.When he saw i sent cell messages to others,he would ask who i sent to.At the first,i always explained all of these,but that doesn't work,cause the next time,he still ask and ask endless! is this regular?Am i wrong?what can i do? Do you guys have a experience like this?How did you deal with?Sharing with me,please!

Hi shawn! First of all, I'm sorry to hear your story. Your boyfriend was been too possessive and doesn't have trust in you. Yes, jealousy can be sweet and we should accept that it's just a part of love, but what your boyfriend showing you is too much. It seems like he is already choking you. He is full of suspicions. He is watching all your actions. Well, I think you needed some space. Tell him that if he will continue like that, then it's better if you separate ways for the moment. Coz it seems like he is not listening to your explanations, what he is believing is his dirty minds and suspicions. But if you really love him, then you can just do some adjustments. Like try to avoid communicating with other guys, especially your ex boyfriend. For you to be able to survive your relationship, you should build his trust. Both of you needed to cooperate and respect each others feelings. If you think your relationship is already too complicated, then you should put a period on it, but if you still have faith on your relationship, then you will do things to survive it. Your relationship can still survive, but both of you needed some adjustments. Good luck on your relationships, wish you all the best. Thank you for your response. Happy myLotting!

Thank you for your suggests,you are right,if i still love him,i can do everything to survive our relationship,but the important thing is i don't know if i still love him.At the first,i love him very much,and often did some things to make him trust me,i cared of him,listened to him and very understound him,i tried my best to let him know how much i love him,but I mean i felt under pressure with him all the time casus those things i mentioned above,now i feel tired of all these things,i even don't wanna explain now,just let him go, and regardless of what he is thinking.but sometimes i also think i don't lose him at all,i don't know this is love or other things,maybe i am just used to live with him.I don't know.Do i still care about him?is this love?i don't know what can i do now?is there any solution can survive this relationship?

I know this situtions is not all his falts,there is also business with me,maybe i didn't make him feel insecure during this relationship,but all this is complicated and out of my control now.I don't know how to get along with him well,even don't undertand him very well although passed more than two years.I can't figure out what the problem is!

Well, depends on how sweet they're talking,if so suspicious then I would probably get jealous,I'm not a jealous type but if I jealous I would surely feel something strange,and I might hurt my partners feelings without any second thought,so I really avoid getting jealous.I'm even getting unreasonable when I get jealous so I'm so aware of this feeling. For my boy if he will get jealous I won't get annoyed its normal for people having this especially if he's not fully convinced of something,I won't feel bad at all he can just tell me all his grievance inside..Just don't let me feel his not aware of those actions and move I'm doing and showing to make him feel secure about me.He can be jealous as he wants I can tolerate just don't let me feel jealous he might regret .. Happy myLotting Mark!

Hi cloudie! I don't think your partner will makes you jealous. If you would feel that there will be a third party on his side, don't believe your thoughts coz I'm sure your partner is 100% contented with you and the other girls just cannot get in his heart since all spaces in his heart were already occupied by you. However, if your partner is the one who's getting jealous, don't get annoyed, he is just showing you that he really care about you and your relationship. Just tell him that there's nothing to worry. It doesn't mean that he is not convinced of what you are showing him, it's just that jealousy is a normal thing in a relationship. If you really love him, then you can just give him a smile, a kiss or a hug, plus a little words of sweetness, and his jealousy will be gone quick. Thank you for your response. Take good care of yourself always. Happy myLotting!

I never counterpart my partner would made me jealous either,if there might be a third party it was not happened the time I am with him ,it maybe happened before I was with him I guess..Otherwise he will pleaded guilty if he does during my turn.lol.Well,100% contentment in a partner is quiet impossible, there were still disagreement and I may not meet all the qualities he is looking for being a partner, but I just can say I will try to adopt myself in all aspects so that he can feel the security in me and how do I feel towards him. Anyway, jealousy is not bad I also feel loved when my man will get jealous,but not over rated in the fact that jealousy can lead to uncertain thoughts and foolish act. Happy myLotting!

hi markmoney, In some cases, jealousy can be considered a sweet thing and can give a positive impact on relationship. When someone get jealous, it means, that someone is really in love with you and do not want to lose you. I appreciate my boyfriend so much when he got jealous of some things. Sometimes I cannot help not to laugh at him because he acts like a child when he is under the influence of jealousy. But when jealousy becomes so often and sometimes happened without an enough reason, that cannot be considered sweet or funny anymore. When someone get jealous without definite reason or when his jealousy is not on the proper place, it makes someone to get annoyed. I do not know what are the feelings of some but based on my own experience, it is really annoying. And if a person is not that patient, it can lead to quarrels or misunderstandings. So with this, the answer I can give varies. It can be sweet if it is in a proper place but if it is not, it is annoying.

Hi rose! I agree with your thoughts. Jealousy can really be considered a sweet thing and it just mean that someone is really in love with you. But just like any other things, too much jealousy is bad and it will turned out to be annoying. That's why jealousy should be put in the proper place. Thank you for your response. Happy myLotting!

I always believe in the rule, "It's not what you say, but how you say it." I apply this to jealousy. I find it cute whenever my wife gets jealous over someone and all, but if it is in an accusive tone or way -- that is way not cute for me.

Hi melloncollie! Yes I can agree with you. Maybe if someone is jealous he/she should just make it not too obvious first, just ask question or make a joke out of it and not to the point that you are immediately accusing him/her. We better know his/her side first or know first what the real story is. Well, it depends on how your conversation goes. Thank you for your response. Happy myLotting!

i am so annoyed with my husband when get jealous of someone no reason at all...i think he's possessive because he don't want me to be friends with other guy, even with my guy friends before we got married... everytime i went out with my friends he thought that i was dating with someone, when my friends visit me in our house he will thought that we are talking about him with another guy and the sad part of all he don't want to get out alone...sometimes i can't understand him and which so unfair with my part because i'm allowing him to be friends with anyone girl/boy...i can't really tell why he's acting like that...

Hi jorish! You have similar situation with shawn, my fifth responder on this topic. But I think his guy is just his boyfriend and not yet a husband like your guy. But the similarities are your partners are both too possessive and jealous persons. Uhmm.. maybe just avoid being with your guy friends because he is getting insecure. You needed some adjustments, you are already a married person now, you are committed with your husband, so just avoid going out with other guys. Just give and show him assurance that he is your only one, you just need to build more his trust to you. Just feel lucky that your husband is faithful to you and doesn't like to go out with other girls. That's why he also want you to do what he is doing. Thank you for your response. Happy myLotting!

jealousy is a sign of love, if your partner get jealous.. then she really loves you, but it should also be in the right place, if you're just only talking to the person, and your partner gets angry, that could be annoying, but if youre flinging with another person, exactly she should be jealous, she just wants that you're attention is all hers.

Hi cheeky! Yes, I agree with you, jealousy is just a sign of love. Yes, talking with another opposite gender is just fine, but if you notice that he/she already doing some flirting, then it should not be tolerated and it's really time to be jealous. Thank you for your response. Happy myLotting!

hello mark, That depends on the situation. As long as he is on the right place to feel jealous,then i would find it sweet. But,if the jealousy is too much,then,it's not good anymore. We must determine the jealousy from obsession. Too much in every relationship is not good anyway. Take everything in moderation.

Hi jaiho! Yes jealousy should always be in the right place. Too much of it is really not good. Actually all things that is too much is not good. I can also say that too much trust is not good as well. I believe that jealousy and trust are important in a relationship, we just need to balanced it. Yes, jealousy can be considered sweet sometimes. Thank you for your response. Have a nice day! Happy myLotting!

Yes, i do. It is a nasty way of letting you know, you cannot be trusted. And trust is very important to me. If ever someone who's jealous come near me, i will tell him to take a hike. Either you ignore that feeling or if you are brave enough, wish it away TATA

Yes I agree with you. It is because your He/she cares for you that they are jealous. But I think that the party concerned should also give a feedback to his or her girlfriend/boyfriend that no one else can take their place and for them not to be jealous, this will help the person who feels jealous. Goodluck

No I would feel that this is the way of my hubby showing that he loves me and cannot see me with anyone else. I would do the same if I were him.

No I don't get annoyed. Actually to me it's a joke. Sometimes when my partner shows that he's jealous over a guy who expressed a crush on me, or thinks i look nice, etc., it only means that he's looking for confirmation from me if I still love him, or to see how I would react to this kind of jibe. Although it can be nice to hear that other people think you look pretty or you look good, I don't want in anyway for my partner to feel insecure or bad about this. And I sincerely do love him, so to laugh off his jealousy would be just like letting him know that no matter what guy comes along, i will never find in other men what I have found in him. :)

Hi markmoney, Maybe to an extent it would be sweet to know that the person cared but jealousy can be carried too far. I dated a guy that would get so so wound up each time he saw me even speak to another guy. I know a lot of people and so it happened a lot. He even got jealous at guys on tv and once even my friends 12 yr old son. It reached a point where it was just insulting to me. He painted me out to be some sort of tramp when I was far from it. Plus it seemed that all our time together had turned into me reassuring him that there was no one else rather than us just enjoying each other''s company. So I guess for me it would all depend on how often it happened.

hehe... nope. honestly.. i find it sweet.. my guy get jealous... i find it attractive.. i know its strange but yes. especially my guy really open -meaning he really speak his mind. and then admit he got jealous .. then his face all red.. haha... it doesn't mean that he doesn't trust you but its human instinct. meaning he cares..
