This is a completely honest answer, and since I like honesty, here it goes.
For me, jealousy has come into play, not out of envy or fear that I'm going to lose my mate/partner, but when my partner hasn't been honest or faithful, and that's something I've experienced in real life and on Lush. I am a pretty secure person, (my husband is best friends with 2 former lovers, and that's never bothered me) and watching my partner flirt or interact with others doesn't bother me. What bothers me is the way it's done, when you see it's not just an innocent flirtation, how words are used, how the other woman (since I'm talking about myself) knowing that we are in a relationship absolutely doesn't respect, not only the relationship, but boundaries.
I always say that people need to put themselves in the other person's shoes. How would you feel if you were in my shoes? Would you tolerate your guy being inappropriate with other woman? How would you feel if this was being done to you?
I flirt and play, but I never push the envelope, and I am extremely considerate of V. If something is posted on my wall that I feel will bother him, I take it down. However, I've also made it very clear to everyone what can and cannot be posted on my wall in order to avoid drama.
Communication is important, so is honesty, trust, respect, and for God's sake, use common sense.
