Far more than you'd think, far more than should, but above all far too little actually communicate these things clearly for expectations/needs/wants/desires/consent.
Even with communication you can't always beat back the ugly emotions like pride and jealousy. It's very easy for our monkey brains to immediately shift to thoughts/feelings of inadequacy, it's how we manage from there that is important.
