Guys, do you get as jealous as us ladies do of each other?

[Crimsyjo]

I can't help it. Internally I'm always comparing myself to other women. And if they look "worse" than me than that doesn't help me with the ones that look better and I feel so jealous! I hate it. But I don't feel men do the same? Or maybe you do?

[strangeatcircleK]

I look at guys with girlfriends and their own kids.

I want that some day but time after time, "hey look at this picture of my family" (which you still don't have yet) "are they not cute?" 🙄

That's where my jealousy lies 😂

[Crimsyjo]

Oh yh I get that. I'm jealous because I want love and a partner and I think a more attractive woman can get that easier than I will. But if I have my partner I would care a lot less about other people.

[strangeatcircleK]

I think everyone is attractive to someone. Personality is the most attractive part of a person

And, you should try to be kind to others as much as you can

But focusing on your partner is good too,

Just have a balance

[Vegasrunner]

This is a great question. I don't know if men get as jelous as women. I've never been jelous of another man, but I know there are a lot of guys who have been and still are jelous of me because of my success.

[Crimsyjo]

Thank you!
How do they show they are jealous? Or is it something you hear indirectly?

[Vegasrunner]

@Crimsyjo Lol, I'm a man so the
actions of my enimies are going to be violence, I've been shot at stabbed and had numerous fist fights. Women are indirect w/ their emotions men are direct with ther actions.

[Crimsyjo]

Ohh... that's really bad. I can't believe men would do that.
Women although less violent are extremely scornful and do not mask the distaste they have of you off their faces. It can still wound.

[Vegasrunner]

@Crimsyjo Yea, that's the only thing women can do because women can't fight. While I'm sure words my effect you there's no comparison to a stab wound. Women get the privilege of playing around, this is why so many women are disrespectful to men because deep down there's no threat if violence. However if they got punched in their mouth the disrespect would change. I'm not advocating for violence, but because you guys don't face it you don't really understand how the real world works.

[Crimsyjo]

I'm sure that is true. Although I do have a stab wound scar. But not from a woman..
I've never had a fight with a woman. Tho I'd like to have slapped many and I think I might if I get disrespected enough these days compared to when I was younger and I held all the rage and hurt inside when women were bitches to me.

[Vegasrunner]

@Crimsyjo To my point, while you may feel thar rage you understand thar violence would put you in a difficult situation.

[Crimsyjo]

Yes mostly fear of arrest or repercussions lol

[TommyMountainFigure]

I don't get jealous. I never have. I would class myself as contented with what I have and who I am.. If I wasn't? I would just sit down and give myself a talking to.. Then I would fully commit to changing.

As for other guys? No, not at all. I am VERY competitive, but only in a sporting sense!

[lightbulb27]

No. At one time yes but I've learned to put things in perspective. They may have skills or stress i dont have.


Thats ok

[HawkPerception]

I get jealous, but not in a toxic way. I prefer to work for my own success in life, but I do get jealous seeing people going to fancy restaurants and vacations, etc. It's the social media trap. I'm happy that they're living the good life though.

And am I jealous that some guys look way better than I do? Of course, but even if I had the opportunity to trade places with them for a day or however long I want, I'd turn it down instantly. I am who I am and I've developed all of my views and character based on my own experiences in life.

I have my own views of happiness and how I want to live my life. I wouldn't change it for the world.

[D_Bone_Steak]

No, that's a woman thing. We could all be drinking at a table and a hot chick walks in the door... we all know the chick at the table is going to be the first to call her a slut.

Just us dudes and some buff muscled out muscle Chad walks in and one of us might say something like "That fucker is fucking jacked bruah."

Women hate each other. They sabotage each other and then call each other "friends." They'll sabotage your relationship, or try to steal your man.

Good news is you're a normal woman for feeling that way. But no, us dudes are not quite like you.

Sure there are outliers, but outliers don't make the general outcome and exceptions to the rule doesn't make the rules.

[Sonorous]

Nah, I don't make it personal. I only get slightly envious at times but nothing significant enough to disrupt. If anything, I am just routinely immensely disappointed in myself. When I feel this way, I use others as a comparison, but generally speaking. For instance, if the average male has [insert skill] & I don't have it, yet I value it, then I might feel disappointed in myself rather than feeling jealous or envious of what they have.

I believe I'm like this because I'm not like a lot of other people when it comes to thinking about similarities. I don't aim to be a carbon copy. I simply see, possibly form preference & wish to be similar in some ways. With every thought I have, I try to make it realistic. It must obey objective laws of reality.

[Anonymous]

No not really. Some men may do that. But I think men are more accepting of reality than women are. Meaning if a man isn’t getting women he more than likely knows why. Whether he’s overweight, doesn’t look like he takes care of himself or just doesn’t have a handsome face or money. He more than likely knows. Women on the other hand all tend to think they’re 10s, that they’re perfect the way they are. A lot of them feel they don’t need to improve. They’re all gorgeous cause all tbeir life their friends told them that, their family told them that, even men who just wanted to nail them have told them that.

[Skinhead-1979]

Of course.

I've never had anything against the guy who 'succeeded me'; though of course I did feel jealousy that he got together with the ex after she had cast me aside.

I was jealous of my step-mother when I started to realise my dad picked her over me.

No doubt there have been a few more times... but I can be jealous when I feel hurt.

[Crimsyjo]

Aww *hugs*. It sounds more like u hurt over what you lose rather than jealous of the actual people.

[Skinhead-1979]

I feel sorry for the guy; I know who is he, though I don't know him well. I have a bit the feeling he is a bit like me... which also made him an easy target for the ex.

I've always said, the day he is free from the ex, and needs someone to talk to... he can come to me; my kids know that too; so if he is lot, they can tell him that.

[Skinhead-1979]

Lot = lost*

[ManOnFire]

Yes, men do get jealous of each other. I would say probably more these days than earlier decades. And they mostly are jealous when it comes to who can get or impress a woman. If you are cool and confident with women, you'll have other guys be jealous because they don't know how to be like that, and they'll try to spread bad words about you to either her or other people.

[dragoblack]

Naw, i know i look good and have my own style. They have their own style, and i have mine, trying to compare my fashion choices to theirs, would only show i dont have my own style.
Try building a style based on your interests, you will feel less inclined to compare yourself to others, because you will be true to yourself.

[DrPepper12]

I have dysmorphia issues so yes i get frustrated but not jealous. They were either born with it or worked for it. I just have to work my way back after the GBS.

You ladies really need a ho code like our bro code. Elevate each other stop tearing each other down

[bobby_bush_eater]

I do, not overwhelmingly as I try to stay grounded but I am definitely somewhat influenced by social media just as you ladies are.

I think most guys my age really have an issue with that and chasing an idea to satisfy them based on a fake social media life.

When it comes to those I know personally when I was in HS I was always jealous and competitive about everything but I grew out of that mostly and am happy for NY friends

[Crimsyjo]

Interesting! I see guys on here do seem to worry about things (muscles, height, penis,) but it's more at themselves rather than as a comparison. So I think you are right. Social media dictates what is "hot" and influences what people think they should be but is not actually true in real life.

[SixFootSexy]

No, a man doesn't get jealous, he gets better. Only weak men want exactly what another man has.

[thearchjoker]

I don't think that most men envy one another that much, if they get jealous its the type of a I also want one of those. If a man if fit other men will want to hit the gym.

[Crimsyjo]

So instead of feeling insecure it motivates you?

[thearchjoker]

Precisely

[loveslongnails]

Some guys do, but I learned long ago that's a waste of time and energy, and it only hurts yourself.

[Kaamraj]

Men should not get jealous of each other, but if you see a man who is doing better than you in something, then ask yourself what he's doing right and how you can get there.

[Serkee]

Nah. If we see a guy in way better shape than us we tend to be inspired to work out more, not get jealous of their success.

[Sharkstealth]

I'm old enough to not care but I do have more money than most people I know or am in contact with. I just haven't cracked the code of how to get a gal to let me spoil her.

[Crimsyjo]

Awwww.
Yh I'm trying to crack the code too. Of how to get a guy who actually wants a relationship with a very sexual wild gal who is also kind and believes in monogamy and loyalty.

[Sharkstealth]

Example of what I go through. I got this girls number who has been flirting with me. I ask her when she is available because she is an online personal trainer and her response is "I'm not interested, sorry.". Now when I am around her she always looks at me and smiles. What am supposed to do?

[Jay-_-]

If you are a true man, no you do not get jealous of other guys, it's the opposite.

[NathanDavis]

some get jealous, but being envious might happen more often

[Anonymous]

Nope, once I stopped acknowledging women and focusing on myself and my career and my goals all those useless toxic emotions just seemed to melt away. Doesn’t sound like I’m missing out on much. Haha. “DO YOU GET AS JEALOUS AS ME GUYZ HURHUR” 💀

[BoopBoopBeep]

Not in the least. Life's too short for that.

[Phoenix98]

I can't speak for other guys but no I personally do not get jealous of other guys.

[ProbablyClueless]

Not to the same degree. Some men are definitely pretty catty though.

[Juxtapose]

No, overwhelmingly no. I offer my own uniqueness and nobody can take that away from me. I am proud of who I am.

[Anonymous]

Nope. Because while we know women are shallow they're not completely shallow. Well the good ones anyway. And why would a guy want a bad one anyways.

[Kingofkings1992]

Jealously is not something I ever experience, as I attach no weight to other human’s thoughts. The main character defects I experience are greed and disgust

[Anonymous]

I'm jealous of my married family and friends who have kids too. That's the only thing but I don't get jealous besides that but I always put those feelings aside.

[Crimsyjo]

Yh it's tough. I bet sometimes they are jealous that you are free and single! Relationships and parenthood are hard work!

[Opinion Owner]

I don't think so. They are taller than me.

[IloveWinters]

I don't think so.. I always find a fellow man as my brother unless he is a cocky dick...

[Purpleronnie]

Can’t say I recall ever being jealous

[serious]

In general No.
