Beware, do not learn the dance of jealousy, do not chance being fatally impaled with the tip of your own lance. Jealousy is such a liar, meant to set your heart on fire; it will steal your sweet lover, put you knee-deep into mire. Please listen attentively to me, jealousy is never meant to be the definer of romantic bliss; dance the dance of purest love, I plead.
