Do guys get Jealous?

Do guys get Jealous of other guys? If so, what do they get jealous about?

Yes. But again it depends on the guy.

I know a druggie who has cheated on several past girlfriends. He's a complete "drama queen." He's currently earning a heck of a lot of money, and people (especially women) fall over themselves to fawn over this guy. He's got the gorgeous fiancee, who he's either lying to, or she could care less about his behavior. He can afford whatever he wants. He's got a steady job. He's got no clue about what integrity really is, he stabbed me in the back and twisted the knife. And yet, he gets everything handed to him.

And I admit, I work my butt off, and I now earn next to nothing. No woman would ever go near me, mainly because I earn next to nothing. I've got very little in my life right now. So yes, I can admit I feel hurt and a little jealous of the fact that this guy has everything, has screwed over lots of people, and if he pays, he pays VERY few consequences. Is life fair? no. Do I expect it to be? I wish the scales weren't always so completely tipped in other people's favor.

I guess I feel the same way at times, though I work hard and get my worth, I still can't stand people not working as hard as I do and get tons, especially when they get away with almost anything. But I believe that what goes around comes around, sooner or later.

I do from time to time.

Actually one girl I was dating said how this guy asked her out, and she was thinking of going. I told her it's her choice, but I'd prefer she stay. Actually, she was testing me, wanted me to call up this guy and threaten to beat the ever loving snot out of him.

(The reason I gave her the choice is because 1) She was starting constant fights with me 2) I come from the whole "If they love you, they'll stay. If not, it wasn't meant to be" school of philosophy, as well as the "If you love her, let her go.." - If she says she wants to go, then obviously she's not that interested in me, and I don't want to force a woman into staying with me when she really doesn't want to be. I don't want to be the excuse. But yes, I can still get jealous. But I can also choose not to act on it.

Of course. Everybody gets jealous. They just don't usually show it as often, but there are some cases. If you feel like a guy is ticked off that other guys are talking to you, then he PROBABLY is.

Yes guys get really jealous! one of my guy friends likes this girl who has a boyfriend already and he's constantly saying how much he hates her boyfriend.. lol.

Of course... they are human after all, come to think of it, even other animals get jealous why would you think a man wouldn't?

[ladyredbone]

Yes. Guys may get jealous over what a guy has like..for example if he has a girl and he's stuck with fatty sally.

I have a friend that is a great guy, great friend, he was loyal, fun, funny, he would give me anything he had if he thought I needed it, and I would do the same for him. The only problem was that he was a total dog when it came to women. He would have four or five girlfriends at a time and even then he would pick up the occasional girl on the side. We used to have to duck out of local clubs and bars because more than one of his girlfriends would show up. Me, I can can barely keep up with one relationship.

Anyway, at one point me, my friend, and one of his girlfriends were hanging out a lot together and I started to like this girl, even as I was covering for my friend. I never did anything about it, because I would never screw over a friend like that. That was the only time I've ever really been jealous of another guy though.

Yes, guys get very jealous, but we don't like to talk about it when we are. Usually the big thing we get like that about is women. Loosing a girl to another guy. We also hate it when we work hard and just barely manage to get by while some guy is running around in his expensive car, nice leather jacket, lots of money and girls falling all over him when we know he's a jerk.

Absolutely! We tend to get very possessive of the people we love! If the jealousy is unfounded, and it quite often is, we have to learn to keep it in check. Jealousy can actually hurt a relationship, if all you do is accuse the other person of infidelity. Or question their intentions? Then it becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy. What you want to keep gets driven away.

Humm..I am really a no worries type of guy. I don't get jealous...I am good at moving on. That said, I get a little bummed when I know a guy who works less than me and makes more money, but I don't direct it as jealousy, I figure I need to work smarter.

Now, no guy likes to see another guy with a woman better looking than his. Most might be jealous about this. I don't really let this bother me either, though. I say good for him.

Yes we do. Some more than others, but we all get jealous of other guys over different things. And yes, many times we get jealous of other guys because of issues surrounding girls.
