I'd bet if they were jealous on fab that they're jealous in real life over things.

I tend to get jealous if I’m emotionally invested in someone. I don’t like to share.

But I’m aware it’s because I have trust issues, so I don’t display it. I just feel it (if that makes sense?).

Yes and no.

Not of what people have experienced as I've done at least once most of what I want to do.

If I'm experiencing a manic state then I can get jealous if I'm chatting to someone and I think they are being flirted with on the forum.

Depends on mood.

Yeah, I have done when I've invested emotionally in someone and when I've felt insecure in myself or in the friendship. It's a normal human emotion. I keep it to myself though and try not to let it dictate my behaviour.

Being serious OP, I don't think jealousy is such a bad thing in all honesty - it's a loosely applied umbrella term that covers so much. Sometimes you might be feeling a bit insecure about who you are, others the person might be playing on those insecurities deliberately in some peculiar game.

As long as you don't hurt others with it, I think it's a normal emotion to work through.

Does your heart sink a bit when you hear someone you really like (as more than just a Fab meet but you’ve chatted to for ages and grown really fond of but never met in person) has met someone (probably as a one-off but not sure)? Or am I just being silly?

I don't know that it's jealousy as such but more a feeling of being fed up when for example there is a Fab social event on or a party that we want to go to but work gets in the way. When I see our friend are going etc, that makes me feel a bit gggrrrrrr.

Just as an observation would you say this is more a single person issue? We've experienced it somewhat as a couple from single guys but not from couples, that not to say couples don't get jealous just never experienced it.

Some will think you're being silly, others won't. Personally I don't think you are. Just being human. I hope you feel better soon. Try and frame it as - you like them being happy? This other person might make them happy. It doesn't lessen you, your dynamic with them. You are still perfectly valid and important to them. x

Yes. I’ve noticed if I’ve got a meet, it’s proper off putting knowing she’s meeting someone else.

What’s strange though is that I have no issue lies meeting someone else haha

I think I need one sided exclusivity

I’m not sure. I think it’s more about my pandemic situation in not being able to go out than anything else. We would have met up months ago otherwise and might be together by now. We’ve had a really lovely friendship but it’s never been able to go beyond that and the ovcasional flirt and naughtiness xxx

It happens. It shows I've got work to do on myself. When the person involved is emotionally mature and intelligent, a conversation is the best way to go about that. (Usually said conversation doesn't happen, so I just deal with my shit )

Jealousy is a normal human emotion, it’s how you deal with it that appears to be the issue. I think jealousy on fab is a thing and sometimes quite destructive. I would prefer not to see and hear it.

I have felt jealous when someone I’m emotionally invested in has had a meet with someone else...

And likewise I’ve had FWBs get jealous because I’ve met other people.

I am more than prepared to go exclusive with any of them (1 more than the rest, tbh) but they aren’t so here we are...

What Meli said is very insightful and will try to remember that when I feel jealousy’s sting. Heh.

It doesn’t sound daft to me. One of my pet peeves on Fab are men that tell me about their other female pursuits. I don’t know someone would go out of their way to tell someone they are chatting to about their interest in another person. It makes me feel like I’m just a waste of time until they can meet the other person. It puts me right off. And it really irritates. It shows a complete lack of thought in my eyes.

Jealousy tends to be an emotional trigger.. And generally it's exacerbated when we think that we have some ownership over the other person

I try to remember that i don't own anyone and remind myself that if i like them, then actually i want them to have total happiness and fulfillment... And that will generally be reflected back onto you

Inner happiness +contentment is a very attractive quality and a great investment in yourself, but it takes work...set them free, they will come back ... If they don't.. Well would you really want to be second best?

Hmm. Ownership, or expectations within the bounds of a friendship?

We don't get jealous of seeing each other with other people and we don't get jealous of people we are playing with seeing others as we don't expect exclusively.

I do however sometimes get envious but it's a fear of missing out more than anything else and also that they might prefer someone else to us and not want to meet us anymore. That's just more to do with my own insecurities though and I tend to just deal with those feelings in my own way.

Kx

I think from my observation, if the person is very jealous outside fabworld, shouldnt be there.

It can only lead to the drama

When there is a couple who trust each other and are honest, so there shouldnt be any issues in theory but time to time drama happens...

It's totally okay for it to sting a bit and no your feelings aren't rediculous. The important part is how you respond to those feelings.

I don't know about this one. I think it's a fine line. I kinda dislike all the secretiveness when people try to hide when they're meeting others but it can definitely go too far with the over sharing which is not only a bit crass but disrespectful to the person involved.
