Ladies, can you name some ways men try to make you jealous?

[Amy10223]

And if you can name those ways, how do you handle it?
Why do men try to make a woman jealous?

[DishLady]

I don’t approve of making a guy jealous. It’s a very immature things to do do a person and also just toxic if you’re doing it intentionally.


in my opinion, guys will get a tad jealous over you on their own about something absolutely ridiculous anyway, so there’s nothing at all to do but talk to him about it and wait for the feeling to blow over.

[Amy10223]

I wanted to know about the ways they try and make You jealous. I also would not do that as well.

[DishLady]

I don't know, it’s hard to make me feel jealous bc I trust the guy I’m with. I might get jealous he ordered fries if I’m on some kind of cleanse, though. 😂

[Nikki1989]

That is not something I have ever experienced.

[Amy10223]

Ah… consider yourself lucky then, right?

[RedInnocent69]

To feel good about themselves. It’s not really about putting you down. Although the insecurity sometimes leads to better sex if you want to impress or keep your man.

Like getting a better woman and showing off before her because she tried to make you chase her

[Amy10223]

So someone tried to make you chase her? What about when there was someone you liked, did you ever want to make her jealous for any reason ( such as to affirm she liked you back?)

[John_Cobretti]

No not me, I'm just saying a possibility , just that some women think the man should chase them even after being rejected , so when he moves on and gets a better girl and they get along well , she might get jealous
Other than that, no , I think some men do try to test if the woman they have a crush on has any feelings for them by being around and acting close to other women in front of her

[Amy10223]

I agree with you in your last statement. Does this include talking about going on dates with other women? Also, and forgive me for asking this (at my age). I was visiting a country and a "penpal" I know from that country asked me out once when I was in the states, and we did once I was there, and then on the day we went out he asked to see me again the following day, to go out to eat. Is that considered a "date"? Or is he just being friendly? I need to add, he's been writing to me more since I was there, and nearly everyday by chat messages or email. Then, he told me about how patient I was (I'm growing a bonsai), and that sometimes women he goes out on dates with don't wait an hour for him. Confusing, eh?

[John_Cobretti]

Well Well , I think he does seem quite interested and yes I think that was a date, I guess he's not trying to make you jealous or anything, he's just hinting his interest by complimenting your patience and in other words he's dates are not patient like you and he wish he had a date like you
Sorry if that was confusing , but I'm quite sure he's more than just being friendly!

[Amy10223]

Thank you, Mr. Cobretti. Your answer gives me a little inspiration and hope :)

[John_Cobretti]

Go for it! Good luck!

[Amy10223]

Thank you 😊

[spartan55]

We don't. That's a female racket.

[Amy10223]

I'm not so sure about that. :)
