in moderation.... yes!
But jealousy, just like envy is a poison that slowly poisons you until you actually become a hateful person.
it happens overtime my dear

I actually am never jealous, and it has pissed a couple of my girlfriends off . A lot.
I don't think it's healthy at all. Some people seem to think it means you love them though.
Whatever...
I don't know if other people are lying, because I've never even personally met anybody else that has said they aren't.
I might be envious of someone having someone I can't have. But I'm not jealous if someone that I can have likes someone else, too. It just doesn't make sense. And you're a free person, so whatever you want to do is fine in my world. People are not property.
I don't think jealousy is normal or natural at all, but it's certainly extremely common.

I really am NEVER jealous of anyone, which is because I am a character and have lots of ideas and things in my life. I also realized from a very early age that like, guilt, jealousy is very destructive to the one who is jealous. There are situations where I may have envied someone who has made better life decisions than I have, but I don't think I have ever been jealous.

I definitely think it's okay to be jealous.
It's part of our human nature. For example, I'm jealous of Bill Gates, because heck, the guy's rich rich RICH.
I'm jealous of Jessica Simpson, because...well, have you seen her body?!
I'm jealous of my other friends having fun outside while I'm stuck having to do homework and whatnot.
When a person says: "I wish I was...." or "I wish I had ..." technically does not sound like there's jealousy involved. Oh but there is. When somebody wishes for something, it's probably wishing for what they don't have, meaning, those who have it, are lucky. therefore, and when you wish something, it can also infer as jealousy.
People who say they are never jealous are liars, certainly.
If they are human, they must have been jealous even as a 4 year old. "Mommy, that kid Brian has a awesome batman suit. Can I have one?" "No" "Awwww" and so the jealousy begins...
It's okay to be jealous. But I try not to; I try to appreciate what I have (most of the time lol)

Yes, Yes, and Yes. There is nothing wrong with the act of being jealous. Its what your jealousy motivates you to do that may be wrong. Don't let your jealously allow you to do something you wouldn't if you weren't jealous. Jealousy is a natural feeling that we all have. Which is why someone who says they're never jealous is lying. Everyone wants something they don't have that someone else does. So be jealous, just don't let that jealousy control you.

A little bit of jealousy is just a part of loving another person. If you never got jealous I would seriously question whether you really loved your mate. There is a line however between normal and crazy. If you're obsessing over it or everything tends to make you jealous, that's definitely not healthy.

I believe that is okay to be jealous, i think that being jealous is a way of showing that you care, just don't be over jealous and be sure that trust in your relationship always stays strong. I also think that people lie about not being jealous. I would get mad if my BF didn't get a little jealous if i was say hi or hang out with other guys, i would think he didn't really care.

I have to say I am not jealous of anyone I look at it as we all walk on the same ground and breathe the same air but we choose to live differently so what is there to be jealous of. I am in a relationship and if girls hit on my boyfriend and he flirts back i flirt with guys, it works both ways. I talk to everyone so I told him he better not be the jealous type or we won't last long and he is cool with that. Just accept life as you choose to live it your way!

Jealousy is ok and normal to an extent, its just a feeling. It's not a good feeling and can get out of control in many ways so it is best to learn to deal with it in the right way (control it). I think everyone gets jealous at one time or another, we just all handle it differently.

Same as lucky 13! My pastor gave a sermon on this last summer. It is one of the seven deadly sins, so I wouldn't guess it is okay, but I don't think we can really help it every once in a while. And yes, everyone has been jealous before.

well its okay to be jealous because its natural. but noone like to be though because it is sad to see the one you love do something you hate. but anyways it takes alot of training and self desensitizing so that you do not feel it nomore. alot will tell you that people get jealous because they are insecure. true but the only reason is because you care for that individual. and when people say they never get jealous are lying. it is written in mankind to be jealous. jealousy is the evil green one eyed monster but you just gotta know how to control it.
