For me, not at all, on either side. Jealousy implies a lack of trust, and without trust there can't be love.

A hint of possessiveness and protectiveness can be cute at first, but that's all.

Personally, I wouldn't be with a girl if I thought another guy could steal her; if he can then she was never mine in the first place, and I'm better off without her. And I expect any girl I'm with to at least be that confident with me, too.

Not completely so, possessiveness and jealousy originate from fear instead of lack of trust, a fear of losing something in this context. It is not completely a lack of trust, but rather the person's need of reassurance that they're being loved.

There's not a single nutter among you. I'm shocked.

Let me ask you, do you find enjoyment in it? and if so, how?

Because don't get me wrong there are a couple of ways in relationships I've enjoyed some perverse/contradictory feelings and expressed that, but my partner feeling jealous has never been one of them.

Me, definitely not. I see it as antagonistic.

Then again I'm not Leo-dominant. My boy finds it a turn-on. The other night he was late for several hours, got carried away with his mom and her new "man friend", even though he was only supposed to drop some stuff off for her.

I mean ok I can understand him wanting to spend time with his mom. I always encourage him to get in touch with her because I know he's always worried about her even if she seems fine. But I had cancelled other plans because he wanted to bake, and I ended up stuck at home waiting for him. And there were no talks of him staying the night and I was bummed I wouldn't spend any time with him.

When he finally showed up in the late evening, I put on a Kate Capshaw-esque performance to disguise my disappointment. He ended up on the floor howling like a hyena with laughter.

A bit later after dinner he asked me "you weren't joking, were you?". He ended up cancelling his plans with his mom yesterday to make it upto me, despite my strong insistence to the opposite. He admitted that he really loves that I was disappointed and jealous. I corrected the fact that I wasn't jealous, unless he was cheating on me with another mom.

He made it upto me 3 times, on top of yesterday.

But I was curious to see if anyone else gets off at seeing their partner jealous or something similar. I guess I should've gone straight to the Leo forum.

Jealous is annoying. Possessive is hot.

I like my partner to want everyone to know I'm his and his alone and Visa versa. Like be prideful. A prideful relationship is a sexy one.

But intense jealousy makes me question the whole thing and why someone is even with me in the first place. The minute you feel like you don't trust me we can either work on it or there's the door. I don't have time to deal with high school drama bull.
