"Jealous men are generous men" how true is that?

Question

from a courtesan book i got on my birthday for me

In the context of courtesans, I can see that.

This is attention, companionship, and sex in exchange for money.

If a courtesan is with a man, only for his money, then she’s going to gravitate towards the highest bidder.

If a client catches feelings for her, he’s going to likely be a little possessive and want more of her to himself.

Thus, he’s going to want to pay more than other clients to keep her with him.

He’s paying you this much? Oh, well I’ll pay you more. He wants you to stay with him for a week for that much money? Babe, I’ll pay you even more.

If money is the jealous man’s only tool of persuasion, he’s going to double down on that to keep the girl around.

I imagine this mainly applies if the man isn't psychopathic or secure in himself.

If I feel feelings of jealousy, I don't really become generous or dangerous. I just start to introspect & try to get it under control.

But then again, I am different than a lot of men in these ways. Dare I say, better.

I can see how that might make sense. A jealous man will shower you with attention and gifts, but he's only doing it so that you won't be tempted to leave since he believes he's giving you everything that you want.

I chuckled when I read that, if giving drama and headaches is being generous, I mean, yah! Sure they are generous!

TheMajesticKing777 · Answer

Personally I get jealous because not cause I'm insecure or whatever but just simply cause I care about the certain person way too much to see them with anyone else than me, even if it's just something I picture just by seeing them speak, this is of course with a partner, there's other forms of jealousy which can form from selfishness but normally I only get jealous qith a girl I like or care about, money stuff doesn't effect me

I mean yeah but in the same boat they can also be the most selfish Incels. Simps and Incels are opposites but both drive from jealously or more like Envy so this statement wouldn't be true to half of them.

Bluemax · Answer

Perhaps jealous men are more likely to shower the objects of their affection with gifts, but that is not how I define generosity.

Generous men give to *all* people. I doubt jealous men are generous by this definition.

FilmGuy93 · Answer

I'm sure there's some truth to it, but generosity at what cost? Because jealousy can get dangerous quickly.

Threatened by loss, in all situations, can make all people more generous in some way?

This gives off the same energy as:  “you may fascinate a woman by giving her a piece of cheese”

Marshymallow · Answer

There’s some truth to that. I personally think it’s true

Juxtapose · Answer

How can a covetous man also be generous? To be generous you must not only be satisfied with what you have but willing to part with it freely.

KostasKouvalis · Answer

That's actually kind of true. At least I am. I'm jealous so I try to win them over with generosity

Waldoe · Answer

maybe jealous men give gifts as an apology or out of guilt. If the "Abuse" is worth a few trinkets, then "go for it"

Anonymous · Answer

A woman who thinks she can make her man more generous by making his jealous is a fool. Jealousy is dangerous on multiple levels.
