Jealousy?

Yes, I do on occasion.
Most of the time there is no need, think logically and you'll realise there's no point in being jealous.
 
Not very often - it always implies to me that you aren't happy with what you have, and considering I am happy, I never really get jealous.

I try but it doesn't work. I'm really jealous of my girlfriends friends. It sometimes feels like she puts them in front of me.

I am happy, well i think i am. I'm happy when Im with her. When I'm not i usually worry.
 
maybe your jealousy is mixe with a bit of lust too

1.1 Lust (Latin, luxuria)
1.2 Gluttony (Latin, gula)
1.3 Greed (Latin, avaritia)
1.4 Sloth (Latin, acedia)
1.5 Wrath (Latin, ira)
1.6 Envy (Latin, invidia)
1.7 Pride (Latin, superbia)

is it a girl?
 
Been there and its not nice (although I still rekon something was afoot). The only way is to talk it through or split up. Dont live with it as it will ruin your relationship and send you mad.

And why shouldn't she? Her friends have been around for ages and if things don't ever work out between you two they will still be there for her. It's up to you to gain her trust and make her want to be with you more.

Stop that, seriously. There is no bigger turnoff to anyone than an overly possessive partner. Just relax a bit or she WILL get bored of it.

This is actually quite a healthy thing in my opinion. Clingy girls with no life of their own can be a real chore. An independent girl will respect your need for your own time and space.

I've known her longer than the friends she's with. I've known her for a year and a half and she's known them for 6months or so. If shes with them she wont text me back, or even ring or anything. if shes with me she would drop everything to contact them.

Jealousy – the green bug eyed monster - tends to surface from the swamp when our natural instincts for emotional security (relationships/ love/ trust) and/ or material security (money/ possessions) are seemingly threatened by another person.

Our instincts tell us that they’ve got something we haven’t and we want it/ deserve it/ need it more than they do.
Ferrari/ girlfriend/ job/ pair of cool shades/ whatever.
Beating jealousy is about becoming more comfortable in your own skin; developing a comfortable sense of balance between what you have and what you have not.

Try and find some gratitude for the things you have and develop the attitude that you’ll work and put the time in to gather the things you want to have in the future.

Above all remember: wants aren’t necessarily needs.

The most pathetic a person can be is when they only have eyes for the finer things of others and are blind to their own possessions.
 
I only suffer from good jealousy.
Good jealousy is things like being jealous of that new toy somebody has had or listening to a teenage guitarist who is way better than you even though you've been playing for 37 years.

I've never suffered from bad jealousy and neither has my wife.
We met when we were kids and started being serious when we were 16.
I was playing in bands and getting lots of attention and she's never bothered.
This still goes on today and when I get approached it doesn't bother her.
I've always let her go her own way and she regulary goes out with her mates.
Its a little thing called :

TRUST

and it works wonders.

Obviously there are some women you can't trust.
