“A sentiment which is born in love and which is produced by the fear that the loved person prefers someone else.”

“As a jealous man, I suffer four times over: because I am jealous, because I blame myself for being so, because I fear that the jealousy will wound the other, because I allow myself to be the subject to a banality: I suffer from being excluded, from being aggressive, from being crazy, and from being common.”

  1. Great words! Jealousy is wasting time but if you’re catched by it you can’t do nothing. The worst tingh in this cases is when jealousy came because you’re loosing your faith and trust in the person you love.

  2. yes, I agree :-)
    it could be positive or negative. in the positive way it is really nice, shows that the other cares for you, i think…
