Being Jealous Is Healthy!

“Jealousy is not a sign of no trust but a sign of possessiveness. And it is not a sign of immaturity but rather love.”

Being a jealous partner is typically not seen as a great feature, but a latest survey has shown that a significant number of people thought jealousy was good for their relationship. Cupid online dating conducted the survey and found that 72% of women thought that a bit of jealousy was a good thing, matched to 65% of men.

People described that a little jealousy showed that their partner cared, with most preferring a green eyed boyfriend to one who was less devoted.  We're all a little bit guilty of being envious too, with two thirds of men and women admitting to experiencing the feeling themselves.

A spokesperson from Cupid online explained that even thinkers such as Sigmund Freud cite jealousy as a necessary part of a healthy relationship.  Too much and it can be damaging, but feeling a little bit vulnerable or protective is an animal instinct, and it's totally normal.

But you must keep in mind, everything in moderation. A little bit is fine, stalking your partner is not.
