Answer 2

Yeah, I understand you. I never like being jealous. Yes it is a very bad thing because it can cloud your mind and it can make you think you are not a better person.

Most people are jealous because they cannot feel so special. That's not true.

You are lucky. Seeing your girlfriend talking to another guy is not a big deal. I wish I had your situation. Do you know what my situation is like? My 10 years boyfriend traveled alot because of his job. He already visited almost all countries. Alot of people think my boyfriend is hot. He has alot of money and he can afford two BMW cars. He made me feel like I am low-life. You have no idea how embarrassed I am. My job sucks.

I wish I could give you hugs and could tell you that you are fine. No worries. No jealous. Have faith.. *hugs*

Answer 5

No, it's not necessarily bad, what it is is damaging to you and those you get involved with.

   Jealousy is like a cancer, it grows, poisons the mind and body, you see or imagine things that are not happening. It displaces a healthy normal thought process. It drives ppl away from you and makes others afraid of getting involved with you. And it will keep growing until it destroys you....if you let it.

    The only prescription for it is trust, trust in those you love and faith in the fact your gf is with you by choice, faith that you are the one she wants and that you have what it takes to love her.

     Being inquisitive about another guy she's talking to is very common for a partner, not neccesarily what i'd call jealousy. Just let her know how you feel and then trust her to do the right thing.  She will.
