It's a fine line, depends on a lot of things. Some of the things it depends on are, but not limited to both people (is one flirty, has one cheated, etc.), the situation, and what you mean by possessiveness.
But if you are with someone who is faithful and true, there should be no need for a possessive nature. Because true love casts out all fear.Like (4)

A possesive person can make you feel special at first but after a while it gets annoying and old. That behavior does not stem from true love,it grows out of self insecurity and jealousy of others.

If someone is possesive....then they're insecure...plain and simple. It's not healthy for any relationship. :-)

It is the fear of loss due to insecurity. 'True' love gives the other person freedom and space me thinks.

Out of love, and being a realist about how this world is. I think it is sometimes needed. Of course, too much could be a bad thing.

Possessiveness comes about due to insecurities within self. A little possessiveness is actually healthy and good for a relation, because it says I care about your actions and they affect me, and I am not indifferent to you. A lot of it can be damaging and suffocating.

I think possessiveness reeks of insecurity and the fear of losing that person's love and affections. I think true love is secure and confident and stands firm in the test of time.
