Is jealousy a sign of being in love?

[LeonieA]

In my opinion, If I truly love someone it's impossible for me to not get jealouuus lol

No it means insecurity. Jealousy is a very dangerous emotion to harbor in the soul. The problem isn't just it causes trust issues and unneeded anxiety poisoning your relations.

The underlined foundation of your mind body and soul is infused with fear.
Fear is an illusion, however when fed it devours.
When exposed it disappears.

So do you believe we receive what we ask for? when you are jealous you are asking whatever reason you're jealous of to be fed giving it power to come true.
If you change your mindset are a trustworthy person that loves and respects you get more love and respect. It is impossible for that energy to be directed any to other source when your focus is only on trust.

I think so. I think a little jealousy just shows that they really care about someone and want them to be theirs. I like a little bit of it and a little possessiveness, but not to the point where they don't trust their partner and are checking all of their messages and stuff like that. I like the type of possessiveness where if someone else is talking to them she would come up and put her arm around me and stay close, or hold my hand or something like that to show that I belong to her.

You like that type of jealousy/possessiveness too?

[LeonieA]

Yess I agree with you!

Plus I like it if she takes initiative sometimes, like her grabbing my hand, or initiating the hug or whatever. To me it makes me feel more cared about and more wanted if the other person initiates stuff like that sometimes so it doesn't seem like I am the only one wanting the closeness.

I am not a jealous person, even though if I love somebody I would be a bit scared to lose them and I wouldn't want someone else to kiss them or sth like that. If it happened though I wouldn't be jealous, I'd break up with them. It means we don't share the same values and I don't want to be involved with someone like that. But I guess for me it all boils down to the fact that if you trust the person you love not to go behind your back, you don't really have a reason to be jealous, does that make sense?

Yeah tbh I think it’s very natural to get jealous about someone you have strong feelings for. But them using that jealousy as excuse to be controlling and accusatory is a red flag! Just had to add that Bc I’ve been naive and was in an abusive relationship and mistook his extreme jealousy for love when really it was just him being controlling.

[sensogal]

No it's a sign of possessiveness. I've been in love and jealous as well as in love and not jealous. I've also been jealous and not in love 😂. Jealousy for me just depends on the relationship's dynamics and how comfortable and trusting the partner makes me feel

[Regmorus]

Depends on the definition of love. In my definition true love doesn't know jealosy and jealosy is a negative side effect of normal love people, which experience because they are incapable or not naturally equipped for respectively of making it pure

[Shebleble]

It can be. But there's a fine line between love and toxic

[Secret6620]

No... It's a sign of control and possession (◠‿◕)🌸💘

[LeonieA]

I don't think so I think It's depend on how you express it

[Secret6620]

Oh no I am sure. When you're older it will make sense. The fact that you believe anything else shows your naïvety... No worries...(◠‿◕)💘

It can be but it’s not always. Often time’s people abuse others out of jealousy which would never occur if love was actually present. Love makes you want that persons needs before you’re own. If you don’t feel that it isn’t love.

[Countrywildmangirl]

According to my boyfriend it not

[Sweetnessxoxo]

I don’t know I’m not the jealous type
