| Do you think its in a guys nature to try and make a girl jealous Posted: 3/22/2008 11:05:29 PM | Ba hahahaha ! guys never try to make a woman jealous? Its not in their nature? i see most of the posters here are trying to convince you that most men take the high road on this OP,.. and that most men would'nt dream of trying to get a jealous reaction from a woman who has rejected them.. What utter rubbish!! I know a load of men who have tried to do this. This whole 'Men are just insensitive/dumb/honest line doesnt wash with me. There are a lot of men out there, who are not above trying to deliberately get a jealous reaction. I actually pay most men the huge compliment of not underestimating them. I dont believe men are as insensitive/dumb, as they claim to be. Some can be very good manipulators, and some do like to play silly mind games,.. especially if their manly pride is hurt with a rejection. The only thing I would say OP, is that if you know he's doing this to get a reaction from you,.. then, despite your attraction to him.. you should not play his game with him. Remove yourself from him completely.. and then you wont have to listen to tales of his new girlfriend. he will be deprived of his little game,.. and you will have peace of mind,.. and a sense of control again.

| Do you think its in a guys nature to try and make a girl jealous Posted: 3/22/2008 11:29:29 PM | Jealousy is in the eye of the beholder, and no one can make you jealous but yourself......
Some are just naturally insecure and will be jealous because of an upbringing that created such insecurity deep within them. Some others are so dense that they could not see a jealous act even if it hit them between the eyes.........
OT.........I find that jealousy seems to disappear as one matures and gets past those points of insecurity, and have a self image that can withstand onslaughts of potential jealous acts.
One may be hurt by another's action, but being jealous is only within yourself, and you are the one that controls that......one way or the other.......
Just my opinion.........  | |

| Do you think its in a guys nature to try and make a girl jealous Posted: 3/22/2008 11:45:20 PM | Girls never play games with guys, I've never seen that. I really don't know what anyone is talking about. I see it this way if the guy is as bad as he sounds then be happy he's out of your life. He's a player. I hate to say it but your first mistake was the fwb those never work out someone always and I repeat always gets hurt it could be the female or even male that gets hurt. I was in a fwb relationship last year. I fell in love she didn't. We are still friends even though it didn't work out but oh I thought that most guys are sexaholics and jerks we could never be friends again.
Wrong again. You see not all men are evil we just play evil on TV. Best of luck to you  | |

| Do you think its in a guys nature to try and make a girl jealous Posted: 3/23/2008 3:28:50 AM | Miss Eyre: I'm not going to claim that guys are always Pure and Noble with their intentions, or anything like that... but trying to play games with Jealousy just doesn't seem in the guy character. When a guy pays attention to a woman that isn't his current partner, I don't think that causing jealousy is ever the motive. More likely, the guy is actively looking to end his current relationship, and is starting to test the waters before he makes the break-up official.
There are some stupid stunts that men and women pull equally... some things that (usually) only men regularly do (like emailing their junk to women they barely know) and some things that (usually) only women do. I think jealousy is one of those things. | |

| Do you think its in a guys nature to try and make a girl jealous Posted: 3/23/2008 4:49:01 AM | | This is one of those things that in the end kinda isn't gender specific. Many women try and make men jealous through flirtations with other guys cause some women like the idea that their man constantly feels he needs to fight for her. Which gets old fast, as I'm sure it does when men attempt to do the same to women. | |

Sorry, OP, I didn't mean to be so cynical with that. This is just so much drama I don't understand how you can tolerate it. Just grab your boots and walk right out of his life. Besides, it looks like you MIGHT be attributing a heck of a lot more meaning to his actions than is actually there. What I see based on what you've written is a guy who's moved on while you're pining away for him. | |

| Do you think its in a guys nature to try and make a girl jealous Posted: 3/24/2008 9:53:07 PM | I think he wants to have sex with you, but doesn't want a full on relationship with you.
There is a difference between a guy not wanting a relationship, and not wanting a relationship with a specific person.
I haven't even looked at your profile, so I can't say if thats the case or not, but it is not uncommon. And almost invariably, he will never admit that. | |

| Do you think its in a guys nature to try and make a girl jealous Posted: 5/5/2008 9:14:54 AM | Why the hell would you be playing with him like that? Neither of you want to be "friends". He wants to get in your pants and you don't want to let him and you want a relationship with him and he doesn't want that. Why don't you just be realistic and move on. Neither of you are capable of a friendship. He has no respect for you because you put yourself in a position of nowhere with him and still stick around for some reason. If you move on, he won't bother with you if he has someone else keeping his attention. You have the choice on what happens in your life. Not choosing like you are doing now is causing your problems, not him. You have the power, take it and make a decision.
hmmm. this is actually very interesting---and helpful.
why do we stay around people when we come to an impasse & can't agree on what we want? it's really a dilemma... | |

This is one of those things that in the end kinda isn't gender specific. Actually, this is the first topic that I can remember ever seeing on this forum that definitely IS gender specific. We all know that women are almost always the initiators of jealousy games. Threads like this one make me laugh, because I think to myself - it's extremely likely that if the OP hadn't initiated the jealousy games, there would be no game playing. | |

| Do you think its in a guys nature to try and make a girl jealous Posted: 5/5/2008 1:37:32 PM | I think it's in human nature to try and make other people jealous...
Some people are just more civil about it and oppress the urge to make someone jealous, seek revenge, etc...
Personally I'd rather avoid any unnessecary drama. I live the way I find fit and if that comes across as revenge or making someone jealous, so be it I guess. I like to think I don't deliberately act like a fool.  | |
