Does the fact that sometimes I can't control my emotions and get really jealous make me a bad person?

Only if that makes me a bad person, too.

No, human.

No it makes you normal.

No, Ender. It makes you someone who will most assuredly experience relationship problems across the board until you learn to control your emotions and get past the jealousy. You are entitled to your feelings sure, but remember - other people are not our emotional garbage dumps.
-
Maybe it makes you an unhappy person. We all feel and we all act out to some degree at times.
-
No, unless you are verbally or physically abusive with your jealousy.
-
If so, then you and most of the world.

Because I've been that person long ago, I know exactly what it made me . . . insecure. I was a very emotional person (and still am on some occasions), but my jealousy came as a result of not feeling valued or good enough to hold onto my man. Now, in retrospect, he really didn't deserve me . . . I went on to accomplish a lot of things I wanted to do and now feel that if someone would treat me badly, it would be the one and only time and the loss . . . would be totally theirs!! I've learned we teach people how to treat us.

No, it doesn't make you a bad person. I have had people (well, really one person) try to make me feel like I was a bad person for having feelings like these. What he failed to realize is that, at the time, it was my destructive expression of those things that was hurtful, and my real intentions were to want him to be happy. Love sometimes makes people do and feel crazy things. You want the best for the other person, but the pain gets in the way of that intention.
