    Evil controls others, good controls the self. Possessive is always evil and it ends poorly. Good luck.

    No, it is mistrust born of insecurity. It is inherently poisonous for the relationship.

    I guess to a degree it is healthy and fine. Over possessive behavor could be hazardous to your health depending on the type of person your dealing with.

    Possessiveness is a sign of insecurity and lack of confidence that your love will survive the test of time. It's not healthy and can actually lead to the relationship failing, because no one wants to be smothered in a relationship or have someone who endlessly needs to be reassured that the love is real and lasting.

    No. No.

    And get away from it if you are in a relationship with someone is possessive of you.

    Soon they will become controlling of who you talk to, see, do. They will become abusive physically as well as mentally.

    I am SO glad to read that it's over ! Now, for the future pay attention to those red flags when getting close to another . Do yourself that favor because I can tell you, being battered physically alone catches up to you in your later years. I have seizure disorders from being hit and stomped in the head so much.

    Over possessiveness, I believe has do do with some insecurity somewhere.

    possessiveness stems from lack of confidence or a feeling of abandonment. the more possessive the less the partner feels free and can hurt a relationship. there are simple ways to avoid possessive behavior and offset the feelings of loneliness and low self esteem. start by talking someone about feelings of possessiveness who will listen, not judge you (friend, social worker..) and help you overcome. good luck!

    Thank you....your right, this possessiveness is lack of security over someone. Afraid that he or she might leave you and you keep on checking over it. Its really irritating sometimes, someone drawing lines for you to stand within and laying rules for you to follow. Its 2 much to handle. Though, I'll follow your advice on this:)

    No, its outcome of insecurity and low self-esteem. Not your fault and you shouldn't tolerate it.
    Has nothing to do with true love whatsoever

    possessiveness? is good but upto a extent. when it cross the limit it get worst. when a person have insecurity and low confidence level about his relationship also if his partner is beautyful and attracts lot of people the fear of loosing the partner widen up and so possessiveness. it is not his fault. if you love him try to convince him. tail him because his possessiveness how u suffer. might it work.
