I often hear people say that a bit of jealousy from their partner makes them feel wanted.
This directly contradicts what I have been taught about jealousy being a sign of insecurity and control issues.
There are some things that just don't make me feel jealous. For example, my younger brother asked if I would mind if he and my husband went to a strip club. He was very surprised when I said that I wouldn't be upset about that. My brother told me that most women do not think like me. Maybe there is something wrong with the way that I think?
Women will sometimes give my husband the old once over. It doesn't upset me. In fact, I feel proud that my husband is getting looks from other women. I like to tease him about this because it makes him feel good. "Oooh, somebody is a ladies man! I better step up my game; all the ladies want my hubby!" :rofl::rofl:
My husband is much more jealous than I am. I know that our age difference, his recent 40th birthday and his belief that I am far better looking than he is all collide to make him feel insecure. This man has been so loving and patient with me, so I feel that I can and should help him deal with his insecurity. I also think that we are equally attractive and my husband is sexier than he thinks.
Do you think jealousy is healthy? Why or why not?
