Jealous People are Territorial

It is amazing how territorial jealous people can be. You would think that kind of behavior is only common to wild animals. If you thought that way, I want to say think again.

I have lived long enough to notice this kind of behavior.  Yes, it is true jealous people are territorial.  I am not saying some of us are not jealous people. My perception is all of us have jealousy. The only difference is how we express it. It depends on our level of maturity. As a result of that, it can be a blessing  or a curse. 

In addition, why do I say being jealous can be a blessing  or curse; it is because some can turn out to be gifts to their partners, while some become monsters. 

Let me first briefly talk about how can a jealous person end up become a curse to their partner: If this person is not matured, and has not healed from the things that happened to them in the past; It can be because insecurities they have; Also to lack appropriate education and training how to live in harmony with their partners.  All of these and many more that I didn't mention can turn a jealous person into become something dangerous to their partners. This is why we find abusive partners in both genders. So when they are jealous, they try to protect what they love, but not in a good way. In that way they are being territorial. 

But also I have seen how beautiful jealousy can be to a matured person. They find ways to express it. They educate their partners.  Always make sure that their love is felt and experienced by their partners, and register assurance to their partners’ hearts that they are loved. 

My point of the story is that Jealous people are territorial.  They protect what they love. But unfortunately how they protect what they love differs.  Some become a blessing, while some become a curse. But I believe if all of us can grow and mature, we can express jealousy beautifully.  It would turn out to be a blessing to our partners.
