I don't think jealousy is fun, fun is fun. If my husband likes looking at good looking women (What man doesn't? That's kind of built in :-) and I catch him and look at her and admit out loud that yes, she's very attractive, that's fun for both of us. I don't have any trouble there! We're making fun of man's (male and female) animal nature together and enjoying "beauty" together. I think that's what makes the Flintstones entertaining, they're stereotypes of us back in the stone age, things that haven't changed with evolution and we can identify with them and feel close. Jealousy though is usually one-sided and anything that doesn't help "balance" a relationship can help unbalance it?

I don't think anything that makes us feel good is bad or wrong; I think it's great KD that you felt good that your husband was a bit jealous. Your feeling good at his jealousy did not hurt him if you didn't say anything, just felt it. However, if you then try to "make" him jealous, go out of your way to arrange things so you can experience his jealousy so you can feel good, that, would be different.
