    Jealous?

    Are ENFPs jealous people in romance? If you've been feeling neglected by your partner and he or she is paying a little extra attention to someone else saying how awesome they are and how good they are at playing the saxophone or they have really cool tattoos or something. Would you be a little jealous or mad that you're partner seems disinterested in you?

    Yes. If I've been feeling neglected by my partner, I'm going be mad that they seem disinterested in me, regardless of whether or not they are paying attention to someone else. If they are, that just makes it worse.

    Oh yeah, if you lose interest in me, I will immediately lose interest in you. No matter what.If you are referring to your own partner in your question, I don't think there is an equivalency between complementing other people and losing interest in your significant other.

    I'd have to say yes I'd hate having my SO drawing attention away from me but I'd be honest with him. But truth is I'd be a reciprocal of his behavior for instance if he lost interest in me I'd do the same but not until I confront him on that matter so that I could be fair because they might not mean what they're doing or know its hurting you. So yea I'm envious within certain boundaries xD but I do get jealous if its another chick xD

    I believe that if you give a girl your full love, trust and support, she will return the favor in thankfulness. I think almost blindly trusting a person is part of being together, because seriously, for how long do you have the energy to be suspicious and jealous?
    Love a girl, make her smile, show her that you care. Don't waste your energy on negativity rather than positivity.

    I agree that I don't think you can really separate the two - im not sure you get jealous if there aren't already other signs that the person is drawing away from you. If I know the relationship is strong then I don't get jealous.

    But sadly it's not enough for a guy to tell me they like me, I have to intuitively feel it, once I know they care on this level then Im pretty robust. But conversely I do not trust it at all when someone is saying the right things, buying me dinner etc and yet I can tell that it doesn't run deep with them, or that they don't really "see" me. In such cases, if there is sign for mistrust then I have become very suspicious and jealous, which is a sign the show is over.

    Ive been wondering recently how much it takes for an ENFP to feel loved. I used to think i was low maintenance due to not needing flowers/dinners etc or even to be told how someone felt. If I felt it, it was enough. But now I wonder if that is more demanding as it requires you constantly to feel appreciated and valued which probably takes more effort than just saying "I love you".

    Are we really pretty demanding in our need for authenticity?

    I consider myself pretty demanding when it comes to attention. Though it only have to be right body language, laughing of what I say and the best one: just smiling while staring at me, like nothing in the world matters, shutting everything out, and look almost paralyzed while smiling the softest, gentlest, most beautiful smile at me, so even her eyes sparkle.

    ...I have to call my girlfriend. Now.

    I don't like to share. I'm a territorial partner, but not a controlling one. Everyone around will know that he's mine, and that they had better respect that. I won't use the word jealous though, because I know my worth. I'm not threatened by other females, but I distrust the male mind when it comes to other females. There's a difference ;)
