Married folks: Is a little jealousy good for a long term relationship?

Example: You’ve been married for a long time and your marriage hits that normal stage where y’all are basically just tolerating each other. Your spouse notices another person that is interested in you or vice versa. If your spouse gets jealous, is that a good thing since they know you’re still desirable? Or does that just start the fight which inevitably ends it?

No its not. That just plants seeds of insecurity that eventually blossom into other bad things.

I think it’s more of a personality flaw than an indication he/she is desirable.

Not normal, but I far exceeded this stage.

Jealousy is never, never, ever good in a relationship.

Lol - I don’t know
My husband and I have been together for over 20 years and he still gets a little jealous sometimes - but it never causes a fight.

Tolerating
What a description. That sounds like you are miserable

Yes it's a good thing, in moderation. Women want someone that other women want.
If she's psycho and thinks you're cheating when you're not, is always accusing you, then that's too much.

No. But your wife should be under the impression that are always at any given moment willing to walk the frick away.

If your wife is psychotic then yes.
Posted on 12/3/20 at 6:16 pm to ArmyHogs
frick no. It's a marriage killer.

Jealousy is a normal human emotion. Like most other emotions, it can be good in moderation and bad in excess/absence.

I think husbands should be under this impression too. Plenty of times with complacency comes boredom.
And I’ve known more guys that have been devastated when their wives left than I have women when their husbands left.

I think both partners should feel secure in the relationship. It should be established well before marriage that neither partner is a doormat. With that understanding, I think feeling secure in a marriage is better/more stable, and a little hint of jealousy at a flirty waitress or whatnot, is just a little extra flavor in a lovely simmering stew.
