Jealousy



Jealousy is an emotional feeling of insecurity, fear, and anxiety over an anticipated loss of something that the person values, such as a relationship, friendship, or love. Jealousy works together with some emotions such as anger, sadness, and disgust. Jealousy is most common when a female likes a male but cannot have the male because the male likes or is with another girl. Another way could be maybe your girlfriend noticed you checking out another girl. She would become upset at you because she is angry that you are not checking her out. In the great Gatsby myrtle becomes jealous of daisy at a party in New York and screams daisy name until tom shuts her up. Jealousy can also be when you wish you had somebody else’s body. If you were fat, and you saw a guy with a 6 pack you would be jealous because you wish you looked like him. Girls always get jealous of other girls because the other girl gets a man that they want. Jealousy is mostly caused by emotions. The more you let your emotions show the more jealous you may get.

  1. Much better header. You make me laugh Tyler. You have to incorporate Gatsby into your text somehow. The whole point of the assignment is to relate to the novel. 65/75
