Thanks!
Okay, for example. My best friend of eight years recently started having sex, and I could barely handle it. After a lot of analasis, I realized it was one part real care and concern for her body (we are both fifteen), and part major jealousy of her boyfriend.

Many men are very possessive and when you mix this with a lack of self confidence (mostly the fear of not loosing a woman to someone else), you will see the full extent of the negative effects of jealousy. Some men don’t believe that they actually deserve to be in a relationship with the woman, and they try to make her as dependent on them as possible.

While excessive jealousy can’t be spotted right away, there are certain signs that can tell you more about your date, especially if you start seeing each other more often. Some guys will probably offer to pick you up from work or school when you get out – this can be a nice gesture, but it can also be one of the first signs that they want complete control over your time and company. Other times, you may have a phone conversation with a male friend of yours – maybe a coworker, maybe an old friend.

If your date asks about him you can consider that a good thing – he is interested in your friends and entourage. However, if the conversation goes on and on about the male voice on your phone, chances are jealousy is involved. One of the most obvious signs of jealousy is when you tell your date that you spent a night out with a male friend and he starts an argument based on that. Any woman should have at least a few men as friends, and if your date is envious or jealous about any of them, chances are you are in for a rough ride if you continue the relationship.

Most guys with low self esteem will also develop jealousy problems. They feel like you can always find someone better, so they go out of their way to monopolize your time and interests. Nothing is enough for a jealous man when it comes to gaining his trust. Even your sincere love, your passion, your willingness to be by his side when he is going through rough times may not be enough for his peace of mind. This is why jealous men are one of the most negative dates you can experience.

Warning signals for jealous men – Here are a few things that can let you know if your date or partner is jealous:

He keeps track of all your friends and social encounters.

He tells you to dress more conservatively, especially when you are not going out together with him.

He insists on escorting you to the bakery, grocery store and other places similar to those.

He often shows up or calls during your business meetings, or any other occasions when you are in a distinct group (maybe a high school reunion or simply while hanging out with your girlfriends).

He starts an argument every time you mention one of your male friends or say something good about any other guy.

He lacks confidence and has low self esteem.

He snaps about minor details.

He makes communication difficult if he doesn’t like the topic.
