Simply jealous...

Today, A and S were talking about D and P. Whether D and P are seeing each other remains the biggest mystery, but the fact is they are joined at the hip. S started to say how jealous D is of P and S's friendship. She actually told S to her face that she was jealous of her. A said that it was not just S really. D is jealous of even A and P being friends. 'Its not like we are remaking dostana,' said A. S continued, saying D knows that she and P are like sis and bro. I told her that its not like D is suspicious. Its just that D doesn't like the fact that the two of them are so close. They do share this relationship that is more stable than P and D's volatile relationship after all.

That did get me thinking though. I was stabbed by the bitter knife of jealousy myself... A couple of times atleast that I remember.

When my best friend told me she had a boy friend, I don't know what came over me. I just started to cry. I couldn't stop. She kept feeling worse and worse, berating herself for ever telling me. I still don't know what happened that day. I was ok with her having other friends. Other best friends who were infact not I. But a boy friend? Sharing my best friend with a boy friend was more than I could endure.

A was saying how A1 is jealous of any female looking at her husband for too long. Anyone staring at him is bound to make her head to his side. Like how at mc d's when she caught this girl staring at her hubby, she quickly moved to his side and snaked an arm around his waist. Just to make her claim and ward off the evil eye of this woman lest she bewitch him.

Jealousy isn't a positive emotion and it certainly doesn't do any good. But whichever way you look at it, it certainly isn't the most explainable of emotions.

hmmm... since none of my real close best friends have got married or even for that matter, engaged, or have a boy friend..I haven't felt those pangs of jealousy as you speak of. But I guess it is a natural emotion... we just have to learn to control it and vent it out in proportions.
