After all, all of us are possessive, at least in the first few stages in the nine stages of love when we’re insecure and not too sure of our partner’s love for us.
When you display a sign of possessiveness, you could be seen as a girl who loves her boyfriend a lot and fears losing him.
But there’s a thin line between displaying possessiveness as a sign of love, and displaying possessiveness as a sign of control and dominance.
Are you dating a jealous and possessive boyfriend?
Jealousy and possessiveness can seem extremely cute to begin with.
You laugh about it, talk about it with your friends, and you feel really loved and special because there’s a guy who can’t seem to live a moment without hearing from you.
Your boyfriend’s possessiveness reaffirms his love for you, and it makes you feel like you’re the only girl that matters in his whole life!
But what if his possessiveness goes too far and stops you from living your own life?
How can you tell if he’s being loving or controlling, when you just can’t see the difference? You may believe that your boyfriend is really possessive only because he loves you so much.
But the truth is, love has very little to do with most people’s possessive nature. More often than not, it’s a guy’s insecurity that makes him jealous and possessive. And beyond showing your love and affection to him, there’s really not much you can do to change him if he chooses to control you through his jealous and possessive nature!
