The way men and women see jealousy and infidelity is not the same. There are different instincts and reactions. Understanding this helps you make better decisions during your interactions with all women, not just the one you’re with now.

Men take jealousy as a challenge. When a woman makes a man jealous he responds with one of 3 reactions:

  • We lose interest in the girl and leave

  • we get aggressive towards the competition; or

  • We get depressed as a form of submission when we don’t have the above options.

If you’ve ever been on a date with a girl who rambled on about the men she has slept with and it turned you off of her, if you’ve ever seen someone talking to your woman and interjected with some posturing and passive aggression, or if you’ve posted your sad sob story to Facebook about your wife staying at the party while you went home and sent her pictures of the kids you already know this.
