Not at all because the irony here is that a lot of my girlfriend's guy friends are jealous of me and honestly, I don't blame them when her personality fits the criteria a lot of men are looking for. She plays almost every genre of video games, loves outdoor activities, is nerdy with anime/tv shows, is a deep-thinker and loves intimacy very much!

I'll admit, I do get annoyed sometimes when they flirt with her but I trust my girlfriend because she'd never go behind my back and is always honest when she feels like she's being hit on. I can understand where the jealousy may surface if your significant other is found attractive by others but I'd say that's quite a compliment to know you found someone like that and they decided to be with you over everyone else!

I used to have jealousy issues but then when I realized I was dating my girlfriend, I had nothing to worry about! I hope others don't struggle with this because jealousy is a nasty feeling to have, especially if it's bottled up over a long period of time.

You didn't have to describe her. You're making me jealous as well lucky boy :P

How do you react to your jealousy? Do you show it or do you act nonchalantly? What would you suggest other men?

Oh no! Not you too! 😂

I've always hid my jealousy thankfully! The important thing to keep in mind is to not let jealousy create unrealistic fears in your mind of events that may not happen at all! Like I said earlier with insecurities, put trust in your significant other and remember that they picked you and not someone else for a good reason. I can understand why jealousy would build up from the attention of others upon your lover but just remember, you're the lucky one here, not the others!

I'm actually curious if you have a jealousy issue as well :)

While I can be jealous at times, I don't have jealousy "issues". In fact, I find it kind of an ego boost when other guys try their best to get my girl. Not in condescending way. It just makes me feel great about my girl. How valuable and desired she is. Plus, how loyal she is. With all the attention she's getting from the wide variety of men, she chose me and stayed loyal.
I wasn't born with this confidence. I learned it, I acquired it, I made it my personality.

Nonetheless, the question of loyalty always stays in the picture. It's not like girls always cheat, but sometimes I feel the pressure of staying at my best behaviour 24×7. Each mistake takes me closer to getting dumped or cheated. Like, I cannot even afford to lose my emotional centre because otherwise there are countless of scavengers roaming all around her.

Relationships aren't the only thing in our life. Sometimes, I can get stressed about my career and life incidents and they affect the relationship.

So, the only time I get jealous is when I am compared to the other men (not explicitly, girls never tell. You have to figure this out by her behavior) who are at their best behaviour at that time, when I'm at my worst. It's temporary, but who is patient and faithful enough that things will change? The problem in modern day dating is that every one has many options ready on their fingertips so they always try to flock to the best one.

Happy single guy. Would I be jealous, definitely not. Assuming it’s a normal relationship. I would be with her because she’s proven to me that she’s the right girl.

How can you be jealous of something that brings someone you care about joy and pleasure and comfort.

Jealousy HAS to be the first thing that is transmitted.

Then dont label yourself nor allow anyone else to either.
