for me jealousy is a sign of other problems in the relationship bubbling up in the form of possessiveness. if i'm feeling jealous something is very wrong!
so true. Jealousy stems from insecurity and insecurity stems from problems in a relationship or paranoia on your part.
I've never been in a relationship but I was very close to a boy I pretty much love, and we were completely fine; talked day in, day out, every day for the longest time. But then something happened between us and overnight everything changed, and even tho we still talked I always felt insecure if he'd "replace" me or something ridiculous and I got jealous of other guys he talked to (and mind you, this had never happened before).
And although jealousy wasn't the main reason for whatever we had went down the drain, it was a contributing factor to the final cause.
If you already have the girl/boy, and she's done nothing to evoke jealousness in you, then you have to chill a little; stop overthinking and appreciate what you have.
Tbh though, I think if you get jealous easily then you probably aren't ready for a relationship, because jealousy stems from insecurities and thinking you aren't good enough. You should always work on yourself and be happy with who you are before dating imo
edit: just read lees post
she started working out a few months ago and came to me for advice so we grew closer over that and it has gotten to the point where she rings me every night and we talk for hours at a time.
she probably likes you lol. That or she's very attached to you which is NOT GOOD for either party, even if you enjoy her company because at this rate you'll get attached to her too whether you like her in that way or not.
I'm sorry but friends don't talk every day even online chats, let alone on the phone and for hours at that. I think you're unintentionally leading her on by being so receptive of her nightly calls.
