It is a selfish feeling.
I really hate that feeling. Feeling selfish, feeling insecure, having the need to compare all the time...
It is a tiring feeling.
My ideal love should be selfless. That tinge of sour and bitterness as you green with jealousy... but then just enough sweetness to save it all from that smile of your partner... knowing he/she is truly happy.
Your partner's happiness should be your happiness.
The recipe is simple... yet the proportion is never easy to control.
Too much sourness... ends in jealousy.
Too much bitterness... ends in misery.
Too much sweetness... smothers your partner indefinitely.
Humans and their complicated feelings. What a bunch of trouble seekers.
