It's both but extremism should be out of it. If you lost your trust on someone then simply take a walk to preserve your sanity.

Why do you need to be jealous ? It's shows you ain't natured and matured. Self love beats all odds.

Please enough of this blasphemous verse from someone below. Thou shall not use the name of God in vain! Don't ever compare God with Human (jealousy belongs to God cos only him can handle hatred, envy, murderer,manslaughter,conspiracy)that arouse from Jealousy!!! angry shocked shocked

Jealous is a sign of insecurity. The proof of Love is simply “giving”.

I don't think it can be both... for one person it can be a proof of love and to another it can be lack of trust... it can't be both to same person.

There is no relationship between trust and jealousy. I've never heard anyone said "I trust/don't trust him thats why I'm jealous/not jealous of him".

But when it comes to love, then yes, there is a relationship between jealousy and love.

Jealousy is wanting what someone have, and it's possible to be jealous about what your your beloved has.

E.g, I could be jealous because my brother is taller or more handsome than me,. Or my girlfriend is richer and has more romantic options than me.

Lol... In a relationship it's lack of trust....
But as humans, there are some emotions the we can't really control when it enters our mind, but maturity makes us conceal it so it doesn't really show....
There are some behaviour Ur partner might do, that may trigger jealousy... It might be intentional, it might not...
So it's good to be calm and wait....
And besides most people equate jealousy for overbearing and might get angry with you

Insecure people cling to status symbols. Think of the person who isn’t particularly into music but has to have the top-of-the-line sound system or the person who wants to be seen at the most expensive restaurant in town, despite the fact that they’d much prefer a burger and fries at the local dive bar. They’re preoccupied with others’ opinions of them, even to the point of causing themselves unhappiness.

Social media has played into this insecurity, and number of followers and likes has become another status symbol. People want to know how to boost these numbers, but they neglect to form meaningful connections.

Of course, there is nothing wrong with treating yourself to something nice, but when those things become a substitute for relationships and self-esteem, then there’s a problem.

Jealousy has absolutely nothing to do with love. nothing whatsoever. it is stifling, oppressive, and potentially abusive. it is a gigantic red flag in a relationship. if you are with a partner who feels jealous of the other people in your life, get out now. don’t expect the jealous behaviour to change. It probably won’t. If you are the jealous party, please seek professional treatment to address whatever underlying issues are fuelling your jealousy. you don’t own your partner. you don't have any right to control what they do, or who they do it with. Even if they are cheating on you. That is their right. The only right you have — the ONLY right you have — is to choose to leave the relationship if you don’t approve of your partners actions. but controlling their behaviour is not an option for you.

Jealousy is usually caused by personal insecurities and comparison to others.

Let me give you an example.

A jealous man who feels insecure in himself believes he’s not good enough to keep another person attracted to him over time. He fears that someone better than him is going to make his loved one to reconsider their relationship.

A woman is who is constantly comparing herself to other women (especially to models, performers, actresses) can only lose. Of course, there are so many beautiful other women. She can’t be the most beautiful one, that’s clear. But she can be the most beautiful one to her husband, because he loves her whole package. He might love the way she treats children, her big heart, her long hair and beautiful curves. She’s number one in his heart, but this doesn’t mean he doesn’t find other women also attractive, in a different way.

But what happens when that certain woman goes crazy because of jealousy? When she becomes mad and upset only if he’s talking to another attractive woman? Well, she really starts appear unattractive over the time. And yes, he really starts thinking about relationships with other women. It’s a self-fulfilling prophecy.

The easiest way to overcome jealousy is by trusting your partner and realizing that if they want to start an affair, they will. Your jealousy won’t make it stop. On the opposite – it will make the urge even bigger.

The other thing is to work on yourself so you can become more confident and overcome your own insecurities. Confidence is sexy. So challenge yourself everyday to become the person you love most.

New mindset: I don’t want to be with someone who is not interested in being with me. That’s it!

Jealousy is a complicated emotion imo🤔🤔
Jealousy can be a proof of love when people don't want to lose their partner to someone else, that is "they love them so much, that they can't fathom the idea losing their partner to someone else"
It can also be lack of trust to some people, as they feel their partner is not being faithful to them with the people they hang out with.
I think how we define jealousy in a relationship has to so with the individual and the context of the relationship.

Some people jealousy can be life threatening😑😑

Jealousy is lack of trust in ourselves.
When we're insecure about our relationships and our appeal to our partner, their attraction to us, then we feel jealousy.
Because that casual interaction with another person might be the start of them ultimately leaving.

Jealousy comes out of a lack of trust; lack of trust in the process of life, in your partner, in yourself.
Lack of trust breeds insecurity, which creates jealousy; we stifle these feelings because they are uncomfortable.

Mr. Pansophist you totally miss the definition of jealousy being discussed.
It is NOT jealousy as in "I want what he has".
It is "romantic jealousy", as in feeling bad that your girl greets or smiles at another guy, or not being able to stand the thought of your girl being with another guy and always suspicious that maybe she has.
Now you know the definition, let's get your two cents
