    Are you jealous or protective of your family/friends/GF/BF? Do you tend to show your jealousy?
    For me, I'm terribly jealous. If I had a GF, she'd hate me for that :P
     
    Being jealous and developing it is the first step to become a good pirate, so I let it boil in me. I tend not to show it but outright moderate hints are frequently coming out of me.
     
    I'm not jealous since I have a good life as of now. My fiancee on the other hand is a very jealous gal who wants me all to herself, and I am perfectly fine with that.
     
    Protective, yes. Jealous, no.

    On the family side of things, well, it's family. I was raised with a great one, so I'm obviously going to feel inclined to defend them. I ask my sister every now and then if they're okay, I help my parents out if I can, etc. As for jealousy, I don't really have much to be jealous about. I'm the oldest child, and as much as I hate to say it, I've done rather well in life in my parents' eyes. Reason I hate it is cause it casts a shadow over my two younger sisters. That's not something I imagine to be very pleasant.

    As for friends, same thing. If they really are my friends, then that means I care about them a lot, and I'm not gonna watch them just watch them fall into the wayside. And I don't really have much to be jealous over. Perhaps talent, but that's a trivial subject. And it's not something I really even focus on. I don't strive to be just like my friends, that's not why I have them around. I keep them around because they're people that matter to be because of who they are.

    As for my girlfriend, once again, same thing. She's someone I really care for, so being protective is something that'd just come naturally. Not to the point where it's like "Dipu, that's a little kitten, it's not going to maul me to death", but a reasonable amount. =P And jealously can be tricky in a relationship, I guess. I'm not jealous, but I'm finding out very fast that there are little things that a person can take to mean a whole lot, and thankfully, I'm smart enough to realize that. D:
     
    I'm pretty protective of my brothers. However, I trust them to take care of themselves and make the right decisions, but if I were ever faced with a scenario where I would have to step in and stand up for them, I definitely would. I am not jealous of them however and I can't recall a time where I ever have been. As for my friends I am very protective of them and probably a little more than I am of my brothers. I am not sure why this is the case, but I have always been that way.
     
    I used to be incredible jealous of any girl who came close to my boyfriends. But nowadays I've accepted that my man has a lot of female friends, just as I have a lot of guy friends. And there's no need to worry.

    About my family, not so much haha.
     
    I have been in a relationship for five years with the intent on proposing within a year or two; there comes a certain point in any relationship where you are no longer jealous. I believe that after a certain point in your relationship (and this point will be different for everyone) if you or your partner is jealous than the relationship itself is unhealthy. Not necessarily bad or time to break-up, just unhealthy.
     
    I used to be jealous of everyone, because they were better than me at everything. But now, I realize I have my own strengths, so I'm not jealous of anyone. Am I jealous of stuff? Not really, in fact, I get annoyed when people try to rub their stuff in my face. It makes me not want their stuff even more. XD

    I would say I'm protective of my family, but not extremely protective. I don't know, I guess I haven't really been put in a situation that would test that.
     
    I used to get jealous when I was younger but now that I'm older, it's faded. I also learned about how well my life is so I don't need to get jealous nor do I feel like I want to become jealous.

    I do get protective of my family and boyfriend though. I can't stand it when they're upset. Especially due to another person.
     
    Nah, I'm not really the jealous type.

    As long as they aren't being hurt by them, then who my family/friends choose to spend time with is none of my business.

    Girlfriend-Wise, unless she is being unfaithful, then I wouldn't mind her hanging out with guys.
     
    Nah, I think my problem is more of the opposite when it comes to relationships. I don't show that I care enough. Might be foolish but I tend to trust everyone until they give me a reason not too.
     
    I'm notoriously aloof with many relationships - I'm not the jealous type, but I sometimes take the natural apathy that lies within me to the extreme, which causes people to think I'm standoffish and generally drift away from me. I'm not particularly protective, either - if anything, I receive the protection from the protective.
     
    I'm a little jealous only when it comes to relationship.
    But if it's my friend and part of my family, I'll protect them more like I devote my life for them. I only get jealous in relationships because I don't want to loose the one I love.
     
    I try not to be protective of my girlfriend. If anything, she's more protective of me. Considering that I'm autistic and she's not, it makes more sense for her to be protective of me than the other way around.

    My best friend is very protective of his sister. It's kind of odd because he's younger than his sister, and he's autistic to boot. And he gets carried away with it. He's suspicious of nearly every guy she brings home. At least once he tried to get in the way of her relationships. It's gotten to the point where even I have called him out on it.
     
    When people talk about my mother, I become this whole other person with very little concern for what trouble I get in. NO ONE talks about my mother.
     
    I'm not a jealous person, but I can be pretty protective. Oddly enough, I was never really protective of my girlfriends in a territorial way when we were together. This was something that bothered my most recent ex, actually. I'm not someone who feels like I have a place to tell someone who they can and can't hang out with, so I pretty much gave her my blessing to hang out with whoever she felt like.

    Who I am protective over is my best friend. Maybe its because I hadn't fallen in love with my girlfriends in the past, but my best friends always has had more of a priority to me in a territorial way. I see my best friend as my best friend (and as such, I feel that I am their best friend as well). They're my best friend for a reason and the person that I care about and get along with most in the world. While I don't mind people hanging out with him or her, when I sense someone is growing more attached to them than I'm comfortable with, I start feeling like they're kind of swooping in, and that's when I start to have a problem.
