Actress Scarlett Johansson, who seperated from husband Ryan Reynolds after three years of marriage, says she cannot handle jealous behaviour in a relationship.
The 28-year-old "The Avengers" star said she is fine with an occasional check-in but does not like controlling behaviour, reported People magazine.
"I don't like jealous behavior. I don't mind an occasional
check-in, but when somebody is passive-aggressively jealous, it's really unattractive because it shows a sort of insecurity. ... Oh, controlling behavior is awful. Nobody's going to say they love that," she said.
On her seperation from Reynolds, Johansson said, "Well, it
wasn't that long ago. But I think I've had a fair amount of time to process the experience and be able to move forward. I continue to get to know myself better as I get older, and that helps me in my relationships."
The actress said she hates social media because people tend to exploit themselves there.
"All of it drives me crazy. I don't understand this need to 'share'. We almost exploit ourselves in order to feel seen," she said.
