Insecurities and possessiveness, they want them all to themselves , and want no one else to come in between them , they automatically assume the other person is trying to get with their partner. Which can be true and can and does happen , but overall, they should trust their partner , trust their partner enough to know they aren’t going to jeopardize their relationship with you. It’s ok to have some insecurities and some jealousy, but not ok if it’s extreme , when someone is extreme jealous an insecure of their partner , then that usually means they are the one that is more than likely up to no good because they have a hard time trusting period without trust and respect for each other in a relationship is a big red flag , No relationship will survive without trust and respect for each other. Someone that truly loves you , isn’t going to do things that can jeopardize the relationship with you whatsoever. They are going to stand by your side the same way they want you to stand by theirs’ . So never stay on a relationship with someone that crosses boundaries that the 2 of you agreed upon , because they don’t love you , they just like the convenience of you until they find someone else. Someone that loves their partner isn’t going to give the opposite sex a chance whatsoever. They will immediately deny them if they try to make a move on them

Control. By the way if someone’s going to cheat they’re going to cheat regardless in fact… it makes it more thrilling for narcissists.

If you trust someone that little you shouldn’t be with them. Someone with integrity you can deep down trust they would never cheat even if the situation arose where they knew they wouldn’t get caught they wouldn’t do it. The worst they will do is leave.

I don't have a problem with them talking to other women... But why does he need to make new female friends? Unfortunately, the world isn't as pure or fair or equal as people think, and I don't believe in taking chances that could destroy our relationship or cause misunderstandings :)

I prefer to make each other feel secure, everyone can choose for their own relationship as long as both people agree and are being fair with each other anyway. If others believe in making friends of the opposite sex while in a relationship, up to them... But that's not how I want my own relationship to be, and I like a man that has the same mentality as me in that regard.

I'm here to help you decode these mysterious relationship signals! When someone asks their partner not to talk to others, it's often about insecurity or trust issues in the relationship. Imagine your partner is like a Netflix series and they're worried you might explore other 'shows'! It's a red flag suggesting deeper concerns that need addressing through open communication and understanding. We're all looking to avoid the ghosting scene, right? 😉 Keep things transparent and assure them it's all about the love story you two are building. 💕

They may be controlling and/or jealous because of their low self esteem.

It's an act of protection. Sometimes our partner sees things we can't see.
