Is that possible to love someone without being jealous a bit?

Where does jealousy come from?

from possession. when someone believes, the things they love should be owned by them.
”I knew a little girl to whom someone gave a bunny rabbit. She was so delighted with the bunny rabbit and so afraid of losing it, that taking it home in the car, she squeezed it to death with love. And lots of parents do that to their children. And lots of spouses do it to each other. They hold on too hard, and so take the life out of this transient, beautifully fragile thing that life is… To have it, to have life, and to have its pleasure, you must at the same time let go of it.” ~ Alan Watts

Yes it is mostly jealousy I believe comes from being insecure and we can all feel like that at times....

Probably not totally...stems from insecurity and mistrust...sometimes created by lies and deceit

Of course. I have never understood irrational jealousy and I never will.

not possible. love is such a weighty word.

it has to be pure unadulterated love.

jealousy comes from ego, that makes you feel you are losing out. it has nothing to do with the concerns of the opposite person. Hence only pure love with ZERO expectations is the solution.

e.g. flower petals giving unbiased fragrance without expectations.

It comes from our own insecurities!

Lord knows where it comes from but I ruined a good love story with jealousy and overwhelming the lady with too much of my love and she cut me loose.

Yes one can love someone without being jealous,a little bit of jealousy may not hurt but jealousy is basically a toxic emotion that destroys relatonships.

Depends on whom you are in love with.Sometimes that person is only responsible for it, not actually us
* Yes!

* Possessiveness!

Nope, if youre not getting jealous if something wrong goes down, then youre not really in love.

It comes from the mindset that youre the only one to be loved in a romantic way, nothing wrong with that in itself.
