Jealous, is it still needed?

We don't like seeing a girl talk intently to our spouse or bf. I think that's what we call jealous. But is that feeling still needed when we are already committed for mutual trust? What is your thought about it?

For me it depends whether they are talking other flirting.

@Happy2BeMe Ok, I agree with you, it depends on what they talk. But how if they quite often talk like that?

I understand the feeling...but people say if we trust our spouse or bf....we won't feel that jealous. But even if we trust...sometimes there is this feeling of possessiveness that gets in the way.

@ms1864 @Ayuriny Honestly speaking, when I can feel jealous of other people getting close to my best friend then I reckon its quite normal to get jealous in such case with your spouse or a boyfriend. Just don't take it overboard!

Yes, you're right. But how if the girl seems to have a feeling on our spouse/bf?

@Ayuriny. Do you mean the girl liking your boyfriend and that why she is having a conversation. Well in this case the boyfriend is the one that his girlfriend should be mad at because he knows he is in a relationship.

You really give freedom to your bf. How if the girl actually has a crush on him??

@Ayuriny It's very normal to have crush. So long as nothing develops its fine. Opposite attracts. No one can tie someone down. The more one restricts another, somtimes it backfires...you must be confident in yourself.

I feel your post should be reported for being so rude for the bachelors hahh sighs* ok so what I believe is both should trust not just say words but implement too. If he be ready to do that only then expect her too

@ms1864 lol thats cause of immaturity... fear of loosing....or/ and doubts....even if you don't think there are any doubts.... sometimes there are doubts within you which are referred as intrinsic.....well this can be coped with ... Ain't sayin its always a win win situation but mostly you can be cool even if he chats with her on a cup of coffee...

@Loverabbit I understand...i am just saying it is .....human. It is natural to get jealous...sometimes it is the lack of assurance from the partner that leads to such feelings.

I think this is a normal feeling. If I love someone deeply, be sure I will feel uncomfortable if there are any possibilities for him to leave me. If there is no love, I shall not care.

A little jealousy is okay . But too much can be suffocating for the couple and sometimes can be fatal .

Yeah, you're right. Ok, so in this case, who's to be blamed? Us or that girl who tries to attract our spouse?

I see it as possessiveness. Possession is like..mine and only mine. Jealousy is more like feeling a little bad when my partner is talking and liking to be with the other. I am usually jealous by nature..:p And I believe that if any feeling could turn into being clingy or having controlling attitude, then it's bad. In the sense, purely jealous or possession isn't bad at all

That's true. So, when they quite often talk intently, do you think that it's possible to be jealous by nature?
