JealousyIt's ugly isn't it? I've known people who measured how much they were loved by how jealous their partner was. To me, that's a little scary. I can't find any good justification for jealousy. It's a negative emotion and negative emotions lead to violence if they're not neutralized. A long time ago I remember being jealous. It wasn't any fun. I hated being jealous. It was like being tormented by my mind. It's not like you get to turn it off and on at will. They (whoever they are) call it the Green Eyed Monster. It is a monster. It makes people say and do mean things to other people. Personally, I think Viola is jealous of Peggy. Peggy doesn't look like she cares much though does she?
Oh, happy Valentine's Day, you Hoes.

LOL, but then again, Peggy might actually be a whore!
Jealousy sucks!
I was going to ask what a "hose" had to do with jealousy and valentines day...then my son told me it was "hoes" so there went that. I hope you have a great day today, tomorrow and well every day after.
Oh I love mom eggo's comment. That just makes this whole blog.
whenever i feel jealousy i have to remind myself that it is not loving. i hate when it crops up. and i love when your writing crops up here on xangaland. we are so much the richer.

How ironic that you're posting on jealousy the day before Valentines Day. The thing I've observed is that the more jealous one is, the more guilty one is. You're right it's a pointless emotion.
Happy V day!
LOL But I bet Peggy is just a slut. Whores make money and Viola Knows its. Look at her expression. But what does that make Viola.
@desaxe -
A very naughty, negative girl.
@sean808080 -
I reckon it was planned irony.
@DancingSun -
I try not to hate jealousy as it seems to be in the same family of negative emotions. When I see it coming I back away from it. *smile* Like those car alarms that talk to you. Back away from the car.
@alterEGGO -
OMG! The next question is very, very important. Which son? *smile*
@flaminredhead -
True, true. Whores need love too!
@queenie -
She's really like that too! I keep wondering how she got all those kids though. *smile*
@James - LilE is the one that caught that one. This being dyslexic is not fun but very entertaining at times
@alterEGGO -
@James -
this is why I love xanga. Happy V'day!
@queenie - I always feel the love over here at James' place. Even when I make a boob of myself
@alterEGGO -
Oh, what a relief. He was probably thinking of the garden tool.
@James - the entertaining part is hearing BigE snort when LilE said "HE spelled it h.o.e.s not HOSE, MOM!!"
@James -
yea i hear what you are saying on both counts. thank you.
Jealousy and anger are the most self destructive emotions we can have. I only got one Valentine but that is enough. Well, maybe, it's okay, I am not hurt, upset, jealous, or pissy!
@alterEGGO -
LOL! Never a dull moment.
@DancingSun -
*smile*
@Nanny -
Only one? I find that difficult to believe. You still have all day tomorrow to collect. *smile*
Hmmmmm. I'm not really one for being jealous. Angry, on the other hand... if I could get the anger issues under control, I'd be good to go. But then... I haven't punched a hole in the wall for... almost 3 yrs. Progress, right? ;p
I used to be extremely jealous and it was killing me. It didn't feel like anything I had ever wanted at all and you're right, it isn't something one is able to flip on and off like a switch. It took years of work and teeth gritting to let go enough to lose my jealousy. - And planned or not, the irony there was that it gave me the appearance of not caring enough to my partner, at least that was the feedback I received at the time. Who knows? I'm glad I was able to rid myself of it though.
Btw, you wouldn't happen to have Peggy's number, would you? *smile*
In my experience, those hoes who have it all seldom care about anything or anyone else, as long as they get all they feel is due them. So Peggy probably doesn't care. Viola may indeed be jealous, or she may be happier about her one valentine, because it means more to her than all of Peggy's do to Peggy herself.
Jealousy can be from a lot of things. For me, it's something that happens if I'm insecure about the situation. I much prefer no jealousy to being worried and upset and jealous.
@warweasel -
Oh yeah! I'm really proud of you. I'm also glad I'm your friend and not a wall. *smile*
@Timantec_II -
Duh. Of course I have her number. I'm not sharing it though. It makes me jealous.
@moniet -
Yep, you nailed it. I know, I know, what's new?
@James -
Oh my god, I almost inverted my cranium because I snorted so loud when I read that! You are my cosmic hero, sir.
friend since 1981. And that was due to severe emotional stress. Anger I do better than grief. Even now. But, much more so at 17.
For some reason, valentine's or not I love 'heart' day. When I was peggy's age I gave cards to everyone in our first grade class. Not every parent taught their kids the same so we had our peggy's. Yet I'm not soured on the day. In fact years ago I started a "Have a Heart for Kids" campaign even though it was for April's Child Abuse Prevention Month.
I was chewing my breakfast when I read this and spit my food all over the floor and table...OMG, how FUNNY~~ You are a hoot, James. HUGS and Happy V day from one of your "hoes."
@winniezpoo -
Sorry about the breakfast mishap. I should probably put a food or drink warning on some of these.
Oh my goodness! Thanks so much for the giggle! I *love* that picture! ROFL Have a Happy Valentines Day James!
I was watching Brink on the Science Channel this morning for their Valentine's Day special. They say love can be observed in an active MRI. It is a combination of excitement and pleasure on seeing a picture of their loved one. Pleasure appears as stimulation to the pleasure center, a small spot in the older part of the brain. The excitement, which appears as activity in many centers of the brain, lasts an average of two years. For most people, the pleasure disappears when the excitement tapers off but for some of us the pleasure continues long after the excitement is gone.
Happy Day to you!
I'm jealous because I'm not the only hoe here ...
The only valentine I got was this very picture. (And it wasn't from my husband!) The words are so incongruous with the style of the picture. Happy V Day!
part of a wonderful relationship is trusting...and if your jealous then you have no trust...can you really say you love someone if you don't trust them...so much wasted energy...actually I would rather be Peggy one good valentine is worth a million...lol...missed your writing, hugs...Sassy
@Sassenach_org -
Rather be Peggy? *smile* Can I get your number?
@James - oops I mean Viola...lmao Sassy
@Sassenach_org -
Fine. You can keep your number then. *smile*
