JEALOUSY AND RELATIONSHIPS

JEALOUSY AND RELATIONSHIPS

April 22, 2012

“Don't waste time on jealousy. Sometimes you're ahead, sometimes you're behind.”

This little quote explains the term jealousy very beautifully. Jealousy s a very strong and passionate emotion. As this quote indicates that sometimes it is good for you but sometimes it do not works in favor of you. A person experiencing jealousy sometimes remains behind.  The most beautiful kind of jealousy is the jealousy you feel in a love relationship. In a love relationship slight jealous feelings may even be endearing and show our partner that we are concerned and  we care about him. It is important to show trust at this stage, but the dark side of jealousy can be an ugly thing, bringing out the worst in people. Insecurity is magnified by jealousy, and lovers often feel inadequate and not good enough for their partner. If jealousy is the other partner it may be dangerous for the beautiful relationships. Jealousy can come in the form of needing to know where your partner is at all times, or wondering what he is doing on his phone his computer, who he is meeting with. But the point is to remain calm and positive, if this is done to much the other partner may get irritated and problems and fights may occur. Jealousy should be   positive in a sense that you do not mistrust your partner.

My favorite saying which describes jealousy in a relationship is “I am jealous of the people you hug because for a moment they held my whole world!!! This indicates that in a love relationship we feel jealous just due to our innocent feelings of love, just due to a little fear of losing our partner. Although experts haven't reached a general consensus whether jealousy has a purpose in a loving relationship, the only certain thing is that its presence would always prove problematic if left uncontrolled and dominant. Finally I would like to say that is a hard question that a jealousy is good for relationships or bad but for me it depends on to what extent. If you are too jealous she/he may leave you but if you have too little then I suppose it is normal. We just have to trust our loved ones and we should give them a little space so that they remain loyal to us.
