Is it normal to be jealous?

Yep.Totally normal

Yes, jealousy is a normal human feeling. What matters is how you handle it: you can acknowledge it without letting it turn into controlling or hurtful behavior.

Jealousy can show up when you’re worried about losing someone, comparing yourself with somebody else, or feeling left out. Lots of people feel it sometimes, even when they know there’s no real threat.

The feeling itself doesn’t make you a bad partner or person. It can help to notice what’s underneath it and talk about that calmly. Trying to control someone, snoop, or punish them is a different matter—and usually makes things worse.
