Jealousy is good they say but in moderation…

Yet how easy it to contain ? Where do you draw a line between being possessive and turning jealous ? Is your partners relationship with that one friend causing you heartaches?

We asked Puneites all this and more on their relationships and how their BFF blends in to the scheme of things…

He is more concerned about her than our relationship, says Aashi Pandit.

We have been dating for past 6 months, but she has always accompanied us, whenever we have planned anything. I know her well! She knows about us too, but there is the weird feeling which cant be controlled.

They have been knowing each other for several years, he has always prioritized her before us or anything else. We have never fought about it because I know how genuine friendship and love they have for each other.

But yeah! It still gives me sleepless night thinking about their bonding and the fear of replacement, Pandit adds.

Rebbeca Merchant, Business analyst says, “They get along well together and they are inseparable,

And she is more like a sister to me. We have no place for a hungry emotion called jealousy

Whenever I  call her he is always around her, he is like that Vodafone network wherever we go he follows, says Akshay Gund, Analyst.

I have often spoken to her about my insecurities, but we have still not arrived on any solution. She needs to understand that having him always when we hangout, makes me feel that she still doesn’t have faith in us.

Jealousy is a feeling which develops due to the insecurity and the fear of loss. Everybody does get jealous and there is nothing wrong about it. says Rehan Malik, Photographer.

I do feel jealous, yet I know, she is mine.. It has been 8 years we’re together and I know her best friend, and he has always saved me from getting into trouble by making her understand.

Of course, I get jealous, but more with the feeling of she is mine! He adds.

A recently married couple Avinash and Garima say, “We have been married for two years now, I know his best girlfriend and he knows mine, we are fine on dates and spending quality time with our BFF.

We have reached a stage where we have overcome that phase of jealousy.

His dividing attention is upsetting me so much that I often get jealous of his male friends too, says Shivani Shah, Entrepreneur.

It is a long distance relationship and we have different work schedules. He is more often busy hanging out with his BFF or in a sports bars watching some match.

He barely manages to make a call in a day, although am very sure that he isn’t goofing around, but this lack of attention is certainly affecting the relationship.
