| This is a quote that I've been thinking about lately. "A jealous girlfriend is a faithful girlfriend. If she doesn’t get jealous when someone has your attention, it’s because someone else has hers." Is it true, or would the woman in question just be petty? Where do you draw the line? Basically I'm asking; do you think this is bullshit? How so? |

| As a male. Where do we fit in this situation? |
 |
| I think it's bullshit. I don't think anybody would want to be with a girl who's jealous, it's annoying and the most it will do is create trust issues and push a couple away from each other because of the constant feeling of 'Oh, I can't talk to this person because my girlfriend/bf will get mad at me blahblah' and if a lady is jealous she's more likely to be insecure with herself. So she would be more likely to cheat wouldn't she? If she doesn't get jealous when someone has your attention, it's because she already knows you're all hers at the end of the day so who cares. |
 |
| I don't like jealous girlfriends, I used to have one and after a month I broke up with her. I lost a lot of friends because of her. |

Sophilia said: I think it just depends on the person them self. Wouldn't the quote apply for males too? But then where will the female fit in that situation? Are they beyond control of the relationship or can they somehow able to work this out? |
|
| Not completely, some people just want everything, things that are theirs and things that are not. Just like kids not interested in their toy until someone else wants to play with it then it's theirs and only theirs. And making a girl too jealous might actually make her want to cheat. |

| In some instances, yes. A majority of the time, no. Speaking from personal experiences. |

| I want a jealous girlfriend :( |
| Yeah, totally. There's a line between jealousy and being psychotic. I get jealous when I see the guy I like with another girl. But that's normal. Then I end up not giving a shit a few minutes later. (Probably because we're not in a actual relationship, but still) I wouldn't do anything about it though. Never wanna be like those insane girls who destroy their boyfriend's belongings or post whack shit on public sites. Being jealous shows that you care deep down. I guess.. Still though, jealousy can be a downfall. |

| no a jealous girlfriend is manipulative and in a worse case scenario will dismember your body if you try to break up with her or castrate you. One of those. |

|
| If I was just talking to another female friend of mine, I really wouldn't expect her to be jealous. Both of us should feel comfortable of who we're with, just as long as we both know. |
 |
| They aren't always faithful because they get jealous. Assuming that they are is retarded. I've known several people who have had "jealous girlfriends" who in turn, just cheat in order to make the boyfriend jealous. Not exactly the most faithful partners in the world. |

| No, jealous girlfriends are just insecure ones. It has nothing to do with how faithful she is. |

Basically I'm asking; do you think this is bullshit? How so? It's bullshit. Even sluts often get jealous because, while they might not be loyal to you, they expect YOU to be loyal to THEM. A liar is never happy when lied back to. The only reason they might not be jealous could simply be because she's not jealous, it doesn't mean anything. It could simply mean she entirely trusts you, it could mean she doesn't care cuz she's texting your best friend who she's fucking, it could mean she doesn't like you enough to be bothered, or a billion other things. I do think it's nice if they get a little jealous just because it's cute (as long as it's not to a point that it's genuinely upsetting them or scaring them). |

| I could never date someone who gets jealous easily and I hope that I am never the jealous type. If you can't even trust your significant other to hangout with whomever they want, then your relationship is pretty shitty. |

Baptism said: I could never date someone who gets jealous easily and I hope that I never do. If you can't even trust your significant other to hangout with whomever they want, then your relationship is pretty shitty. Jealousy spans further than just other people. You could be focused entirely on video games or anime all day and it might make her jealous, which (i don't believe, but just according to the line of thinking the OP is questioning) would mean she's got something else keeping her busy too - which is possibly another guy. So, while trusting you fully or not does cover a lot of it, some situations where jealousy might pop up have jack shit to do with trust. |
|
| Yeah, that makes sense. I was just using jealousy in the way OP seems to define it. You feel whatever you feel, but if acting on those feelings means trying to control who your partner associates with, then I'm against it. That's basically my point. I remember a few times my ex asked me if she could hang out with guys and it was uncomfortable that she felt the need to seek my approval. If I were to have been upset over it then it just would have been me being stupid. |

| Oh goodness, no. That would be asking for trouble right from the get-go. |
| A little bit of jealousy isn't bad at all as long as it isn't a huge problem. Nearly everyone gets a little jealous sometimes. |

| My last boyfriend was a jealous boyfriend, and let me tell you - I'm never fucking doing that again. |

| Seeing as my last girlfriend was incredibly jealous and also unfaithful, I think its bullshit. |
 |
| A jealous girlfriend is the one that'll kill you someday, while mostly in hetero relationships, it can happen in a same sex relationship, I hope you are on your toes or don't talk to anyone of the opposite sex or the same sex depending on the type of relations. |
 |
| no thas silly |
 |
| Thirs not such thing as a jealousy. Only love without boundries. |
yhunata said: Wouldn't a faithful girlfriend have faith that you're not cheating on her? +1 A faithful girlfriend will trust that you will not cheat on her. But sometimes you cannot blame somebody that get jealous as they just feel that somebody is gonna take away his/her soul mate. |

| It's normal to be a little jealous, it's how you act on the jealousy that really matters. With that said, I know for a fact that some jealous partners are more likely to cheat - they already have that mindset, so they assume you do as well. It's easier for them to justify it. |
| From what I've seen, relationships tend to last longer when it's not a jealous girl. |
 Ahhh... Is this the blood... The blood of the Dark Soul? |
| No, lmao |
 |
| Yes until the NICE BOAT happens. |
 |
| Depends on just how jealous we're talking here. If she gets possessive, and/or expresses anger at her boyfriend for talking to other girls, then I'd say it's BS. That's just an insecure girlfriend, not a faithful one. If she simply gets a bit jealous when he talks to other girls, but doesn't feel the need to go on a tantrum about it... Well then I still wouldn't she it's a good indicator of whether she's faithful or not, but she'll most likely be a better girlfriend than the one in the former scenario anyway. Just to throw myself into the mix here with my own empirical anecdotes; I wouldn't say ever really got "jealous" about a male friend I've liked (cause I've never had a boyfriend, fml) talking to other girls. For the most part, I really don't mind, since most of my friends are male anyway, and I wouldn't want any potential boyfriends to be jealous over that fact. I'd be lying if I said it hasn't got me worried though, worried that he might end up liking her more than me, and hanging out with her more often and eventually forgetting about my existence. I have that fear with female friends as well though, I just know that eventually they're going to find cooler friends than me and leave me in the dust. :( |

| It is a case to case basis. |
