…I knew jealousy would be the best ally I could call in for the furtherance of that end

—Mr. Rochester, Jane Eyre

I set jealousy traps. I don’t do it maliciously, and I don’t go out of my way to set them up. I just do it to gather information, to know where people stand. Does this make me a bad person? Perhaps, but I think that I’m as much at fault as the person who falls for such a thing. After all, jealousy to me is a superfluous emotion.

It’s AMAZING what some will do when they’re jealous.
