Saul was jealous of David to the degree it became a blind rage. In 1 Sam 18:7 people danced singing "Saul has killed his thousands, and David his ten thousands". This infuriated Saul who wanted to kill David. Saul was also afraid of David because the Lord was with David and not him (1 Sam 18:12).
NO. However, David did marry Saul's daughter, Michal.
Saul seemed to realize that God had chosen David as his replacement, but contrary to Saul's belief David never planned any sort of rebellion, only fleeing from Saul when he attacked. In fact, on two occasions David had a chance to kill Saul (once when he was sleeping, once when they were in a dark cave where Saul could not see him) but refused, claiming that Saul was still God's anointed and thus inviolable. When Saul was killed by an Amalekite David had the perpetrator killed.

The evolution of Saul's attitude toward David ... as so clearly interpreted in the book on the subject by Rabbi Dr. David Novak ... is the gripping picture of the descent of a tormented soul into his own internal paranoid hell. At one point Saul was simply wary of David, because he imagined that David would try to take the throne away from his son, Jonathan. And then, seemingly the next day, Saul was ready to kill his son, because of Jonathan's friendship with David. No, the thought of David taking over the reign as king of Israel drove Saul to insanity.
