Later In Chapter 23

…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.

  1. But why? I mean, just as long as you don’t go over­board I guess. What I can’t stand is that if a boyfriend does it to a girl­friend, or vice ver­sa. It’s.. weird.. these test­ing each oth­er thing. But if you know what you’re doing, should be NOOOOOOOOOOOOO PROBLEM :D
