normal Posted May 22, 2009 Posted May 22, 2009 I've never been the jealous type. Neither has my boyfriend. But suddenly, he is getting jealous of everything. Some guy flirted with me very openly. I brushed it off, and ignored him then tried to give my bf a kiss to show the guy hitting on me that I was taken. And he totally rejected me for the kiss in front of the jackass! We got in a giant argument about it so i told him to leave the house tonight. So he's at the bars. Another example, we went to Sears the other day and some guy COMPLIMENTED me. Didn't hit on me, but told me he loved my necklace. I am pretty sure the guy was GAY too. I don't know of a straight guy that compliments that stuff. I told him MY BOYFRIEND gave it to me (he was standing next to me), then try to hold his hand in front of the loser.... And my boyfriend rejects me for some reason then gets all mad. I ask him what's wrong...he gives me the cold shoulder. WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO DO WHEN I GET HIT ON?? Does anyone have any advice on how I make him NOT get mad? I thought I was doing the right thing by flaunting the fact that HE is my boyfriend?
alphamale Posted May 22, 2009 Posted May 22, 2009 Does anyone have any advice on how I make him NOT get mad? yea, you ditch the loser and get another bf who doesn't mind when other dudes pay attention to you
Author normal Posted May 22, 2009 Author Posted May 22, 2009 yea, you ditch the loser and get another bf who doesn't mind when other dudes pay attention to you This is all new though! We've been together for a really long time, and all of a sudden he started getting mad. I don't get it!
alphamale Posted May 22, 2009 Posted May 22, 2009 This is all new though! We've been together for a really long time, and all of a sudden he started getting mad. I don't get it! why don't you ask him for an engagement ring, that should shut his cake hole
Author normal Posted May 22, 2009 Author Posted May 22, 2009 why don't you ask him for an engagement ring, that should shut his cake hole I'm probably more the man in that situation... Maybe the problem is that I'm not really that interested in marriage right now? By the way I hate the Redwings! That might be another cause to all the relationship drama, too.
alphamale Posted May 22, 2009 Posted May 22, 2009 By the way I hate the Redwings! That might be another cause to all the relationship drama, too. maybe, ice hockey can wreak havoc with a mans sense of self-worth...especially if his team is getting crushed like the chicago blackhawks are
Author normal Posted May 22, 2009 Author Posted May 22, 2009 You should know, hockey fans mean serious business. Anyways... I am not going to break up with him, but is there some way that I can seriously handle this problem?
JustLooking123 Posted May 22, 2009 Posted May 22, 2009 Sounds like he's going through something. It may or may not directly relate to you. Sometimes guys get grouchy, for lack of a better word, about work, friends, etc. and it shows in how they act with their S.O. (I guess girls do this too). I'd talk to him about it. Approach the subject NOT immediately after one of these "jealous" incidents, but when you two are just relaxing or spending time together. Just say that you have noticed that he seems tense or anxious lately, and you are worried about him. Ask him if there is anything you can do to help. If he asks what you mean, gently recount the examples you provided here, and point out that it was unusual behavior for him. Make it sound like you're concerned and want to work with him, so he won't get defensive.
prettybaby Posted May 22, 2009 Posted May 22, 2009 You should probably just talk it out with him instead of fighting and throwing him out of the house. If he wasn't like that before, then something is causing this behavior. If clinging onto him in front of flirting men makes him react like a loser, then don't cling to him in those situations. See how he reacts then. If someone compliments you, look at them like a b%tch and don't respond to them. What do you care? You don't know those people and you don't wanna get to know men who hit on you, since you're taken anyway. So give them a hostile look and ignore them. It's not an attitude I'd enjoy taking myself; but I'd give it a shot out of curiosity to see how the boyfriend reacts then. That being said, I still think you need to get to the bottom of this and talk it out with him in a peaceful manner.
