Do you deny your jealousy?

12 Comments

I can't even describe it. It's like that person is always in my mind, but when they flirt with other people, I just don't pay any attention to them. It's like a little part of me feels just a little jealous, but the rest of me doesn't really care. It's a strange combination- being jealous, but at the same time, you're not jealous.

You know when you think or fantasize of someone that has caught your eyes, then you get back to your senses and you think, "what the fuck...?" It's like that for me. Get out of my head! GAH!

    Why is jealousy is so taboo for people, especially women, to express? I never hide any emotion; strong or weak, love or hate, if I feel it, it's there. Given, I do not oppress others with what I am feeling and express myself in appropriate language (9/10 times :P), but sometimes people are so taken aback when they accuse me of jealousy and I readily admit to it. And yet, as a female, I'm encouraged to express lust, dependency, and helplessness?

    Thought provoking poll. Thanks.

    Sometimes I'm not even sure if I'm jealous or not... Like, I hardly get jealous but sometimes when I think I'm acting strange towards someone (e.g. Suddenly being more negative towards them) I ask myself if I'm jealous of them. Then comes the possibilities; but I deny them with an "I don't think so."

    if you're never jealous,you aren't in love. just don't advertise your jealousy or act like a stereotypical jealous abusive boyfriend.

      I hear you. I get jealous to the point of being possessive. Sometimes, however, it's helped me see the truth, and sometimes people are even flattered that I feel so strongly about them. Maybe it helps that I'm a woman; when men get jealous, it's strangely seen as more damaging.

      Hmm, that must be why I strongly deny mine?

    I get that too. Totally understand what you mean. I hate it! However, I don't get it as bad as I did in High School, but its still kinda bad. And I'm actually going through it right now. I try to pretend that I don't care, though. Its really hard. And I always feel guilty too for feeling the way I feel, and its really out of my control. I just can't help it. The person makes me go fucking nuts!

      I know! The person is on my mind a lot, but I'm like, "I don't even like him that way". Mind: But deep inside, you know how you- Me: Shush!

      Sometimes being jealous is just natural. It depends on if you act on it.
