    Have you ever been jealous in a relationship? I've not been myself since it's my first ever relationship, and my boyfriend is a very good man.

    Nothing to do with your question, but I heard this the other day, and thought of you...Rebel is me...LOL

    I have been jealous, yes, who hasn't about something or other, but I try to not be.....

    The usual wandering eye or hand.....

    Being told I was loved, and then hearing he was out with someone else...Stuff like that.....all past crap now.

    I don't do jealousy. I know where he sleeps at night. I don't care if he looks at other girls. That's natural. He has female friends. I don't care because I have male friends. If you are secure, comfortable and confident in your relationship there is no reason to be jealous.

    Jealousy is a cancer in any relationship! No good can come of it. If you are secure with yourself and your partner there is no reason for it to be there. If you are not secure with yourself or your partner you shouldn't be in a relationship. If you are with someone and always worried they are going to cheat on you just, because someone else finds them attractive or they find someone else attractive then you have got issues you need to deal with.

    You let your partner have other boyfriends or girlfriends?

    My comment had nothing to do with what you said. I was just answering the OP question.

    Yeah, but I felt I was unclear, as usual.....

    I guess I have a hard time expressing myself....and I know that.

    To answerOP, I'd be lying if I said I've NEVER been jealous, but it's not something that happens regularly. Actually, I can only think of four times in 10 years, and none of them were a big deal.


    Anyway, him and I both have sex with other people, so jealousy isn't really a problem with us.

    I have definitely been jealous. The boy and I would travel accost states to events. Despite the hard work of packing pretty for travel, I would get all glammed up. He worked a ton, so time together was special and it was worth the work and car time to get what amounts to a date.

    Then he would spend most of the night with a female friend because he only got to see her a few times a year. A girl only has so much understanding for a long time friend when she spent the time to lace a corset and full make up for him. Especially when said girl hardly sees him as well and needs to leave the state for a bit of couple time.

    For the record, I don't think he was cheating on me, just failing to notice me.

    I think that even after the years I have been with my wife, sometimes there is a little jealousy. Usually stupid stuff, but a little is ok. It (IMHO) shows she cares still. Usually skipping lunch with me (we eat together every day) or shit like that
