Somehow it is a normal feeling to be jealous. Once this green monster possessed you it may be hard to control to be competitive or at least letting the competitor lose making them wish to be more low achievers. Well, as jealousy may be involves lot of greater aspects it influences is manifested by someone dealt with the situation which causes her/hum to be jealous. This may bring good or side effects whatever you handle it. Although, a jealous person could express it while others may seem to have that kind of feeling but decides to keep it under control. So if ever you experience being jealous, do you always show it or say others could notice you or your good in hiding it, which you could relate more from the former or from the latter being expressive or non –expressive at all. Do you tend to express it all the way? What are those things which you feel or makes you jealous. Somehow it may be immaterial or material. It may be little or to the extreme. It may be little or to the extreme, warmer or a little too cold in handling it? 5-18-10 22:55

It's never easy in hiding one's jealosy, regardless of what it is.. Be it over friends, possessions or most importantly, our loved ones, we tend to show our green faced somehow or other.. IF not, it will be thru our actions, and attitude whereby it's really obvious that we are not happy with the way things are happening.. haha =D THough the other party might try to appease us, but the feeling will always be in us, especially when we see them again.. lol =D

Well, if one lose it patience even it is hidden it could be manifested in the behavior of the person and its reaction toward the subject of its jealousy. However the manner it is express varies like the other person may feel jealous but one keep it silent just remain it to his self while on the other hand the others is so expressive so that let the other person person involves know it. So it is just a matter of how one could carry out jealousy maybe either bring positive or bad results as long as never over kill.

I never jealous with my siblings and my siblings feel the same, nor with my cousins. I envy those people that have a high standard of living. The disadvantage of feeling envious of this kind is that you will never stop complaining, feeling regrets and blaming other person or even your parents. On the other hand, the advantage is you will be working hard to attain the high standard of living. You will be hardworking, persistent and confident with yourself to achieve it. I am literary jealous when I found out that my former classmate was very successful of his/her choosen field, because I feel I never been successful. It is maybe I am blinded by the light that circles their success that I do not see what I had done, maybe I had been successful with my field, but because I what i do is to look at them then I forgot to look and assess what I had achieved. Just recently I envy my friend who bought a laptop. You know eversince I really do want to have a laptop because I know there are many jobs on the net that I can do at home, but the earnings I have online and offline is just enough for my family. I do not know when and where can I have a laptop. Maybe when I die.

hi grecychunny, yeah it have downsides and also bring positive results. it bring out the competitiveness in one self to keep the interest on hand . Thus,m making you reach your goals in a matter of time ahead of those who keep themselves at ease while you could easily makes your way up it may be hard at first but once you attain it. it gives joy and contentment. Jealousy perhaps exist to make one aware of the lack then think of the other way around to fill the emptiness. thanks.

I don't consider jealousy negative at all. I like when it comes from my boyfriend. Also it is a natural way to show one real love. Even I get jealous. He does not give me much space for it though. The only time I found myself jealous was 8 months ago when he said that his friend's girlfriend was attractive. I just got cold towards him when I heard it.

hi divineathena, Yeah, it is also necessary even you have a lot of self control their is a time in life where one could no longer keep patience on hold especially if you see your loved ones is being taken away from you or it is very obvious that the other person is giving you a lot of competition so jealousy exist like it is a normal reaction once one felt being abuse or humiliated. thanks.

Hi . definitely this is a good question. everyone feels jealous for some reason. i feel so when im left alone or kept away from my friends due to someone else. if he is more tall, dark and handsome than me... i feel left out and that brings greater degree of jealous feeling in me.

hi dietxpert, It only show were have feeling and if ever I know someone who never felt jealous to me they like an abnormal or maybe they are just so good in keeping their face feel relax or hide their emotion but they also felt jealous it just not shown since others are so shy or just simply embarrass to express it. That maybe a matter of insecurity but it would you learn not to focus on it and divert your attention in other things it may either brings more benefits. thanks.

Jealousy is an emotion and typically refers to the negative thoughts and feelings of insecurity, fear, and anxiety over an anticipated loss of something that the person values, such as a relationship, friendship, or love. Jealousy often consists of a combination of emotions such as anger, sadness, and disgust. It is not to be confused with envy. i don't think i have encountered this kind of feeling for my husband. i just feel like i am too pretty to get jealous with other woman or stuffs.hehehe.i just trust my husband.

hi flagella, That right jealousy is compose of different emotion bundled into one so it may also damaging to the person itself and to the subject of its jealousy. it affect a relationship to the point one lose respect either to itself or to her other partner. the good things you're so confident of the love your partner gives to you and that is a good sign for longevity. thanks.

I don't think jealousy is a normal feeling at all. I hate when guys get jealous and I make it clear that I will not tolerate jealousy cause its one of my pet peeves. It is normal to be jealous if your guy really is with some other girl but just for talking to or being around other girls I never get jealous cause I trust him otherwise I would not be with him.

hi dawn, well, it may have to do with agreement between couples as decided by the two which is the best if one stay or works may be their free choice at all as long as the others could fill up the needs so the children get all the full caring and one have fun doing it...thanks

I must say that since I have grown older, come to terms with certain issues in my life and become a little wiser my jealous feelings are a lot less than they used to be. When I was younger I was very insecure so I did get a little jealous of other people for varied reasons. I never acted on m jealousy; it was just a sentiment I kept it inside and didn’t show it all. In a romantic setting I have never been overly jealous unless it was extreme circumstances.

WOW. Perfect question. I get jealous very very very easily and I can be very territorial. When I like a guy, he has to be MINE. And if I catch him flirting around other girls, I get very angry. And I'll ask some girlfriends of mine, do you think she is prettier than me______ of course she's not. And I believe them. I may the most 'smallest girl he's ever liked' but I sure know I'm the prettiest- ppl have told me. I'm not saying I'll get mad if he so much looks at a girl, I'll get mad if he hugs or gets too close to another girl. He's really sweet and swears that he really does like me... I belive him only because he hasn't tried to get in my pants=)
