You can't equate this with care.
If he loved you, he would care for you and spend time with
If you were in any real danger and he cared, much or little, he would protect you, or try to
You aren't in any danger, so this is something for him. He either feels as if you're his, and he won't let others try to take that (he feels he may not have you 100% already), OR he may feel disrespected by someone, and feel he deserves you/ your attention or deserves to be "respected" by other males. If he feels disrespected by another guy- it's not about you, and more so his identity/ rep. Whether that's all in his mind or between guys, or not. If it's disrespect, he will just have "beef" with the other guy, and once the guy leaves the picture, he may not give you much thought.
If he feels deserving of you, but doesn't have you, he may be upset at the "dilemma."
Jealousy is his response to a feeling of him being disrespected, or not given what he deserves/ OR not getting what he wanted. He has to cope the right way- take action, and/or discuss and convey how he feels about you, IF he feels something "special" towards you.
Girls are flattered by the jealousy of men because they think it's for them, or they like the thought of the distraught male, and all his hormone glory. Jealousy is always and usually introspective at the core. jealousy is not giving or selfless, so it won't be giving anything to any other male, nor a female suit.
If we were back in the "olden days when men fought for things they wanted- then we could interpret this jealousy 100% as him wanting you, and that WOULD be nice, but we live in a MODERN world, where men don't fight their battles like this 24/7; on the daily. It's just light jousting/sparring for these guys in the society we all share.
In this SAME society, if you want to know if someone likes you, better to ask, or wait for a random moment they'd say so and follow up with definite action. Jealousy is a social act between two "contestants."
And I don't think the prize is another person, but the contestants' "egos."
Because real confidence doesn't come from that trivial stuff.
Better luck to you, sis! Love doesn't come from the arena of jealousy. Not in the slightest. ONLY the raresttt.
