Jealousy is this, a feeling that has evolved and accompanied us along the whole path of evolution. It is his evolutionary nature that is the cause of the difference in the jealousy of men and women. After all, evolution and function we have different. Today we will discuss the causes and manifestations of male jealousy, although the female manifestation of this destructive feeling is much more popular.
Causes of jealousy
Men have only one cause of jealousy - men can never be 100% sure that your common child is really his child. You can be indignant and answer that you do not yet have children, but the young man is still behaving like the last Othello. Do not flatter yourself, you may not have children, but jealousy will always be. As we have already mentioned, jealousy is an evolutionary, ancient feeling aimed at protecting the family from the invasion of outsiders. A man, without knowing it himself, instinctively worries that his "female" will bring someone else's child into the house, there is nothing more terrible for a man than this.
The psychology of jealousy in men is such that not being a biological father is an eerie waste, which means investing valuable resources, in preserving in the future the genes of a competitor, not their own. Perhaps, understanding these touching primitive feelings of his chosen one, will the ladies stop pour oil on the fire?
Jealousy and its physiological aspect
With psychology and instincts, everything is already clear, but did you know that jealousy manifests itself physiologically? After a long separation, for example, one of you was far away, on a business trip, during men, much more semen is released during intercourse than usual. It's not because he was so bored or long abstained. If there was a prolonged abstinence, but you were at the same time, there will be no increase in the volume of sperm. The reason is simple - the male body, "afraid" that you had a "stranger" contact, allocates sperm killers to eliminate the seed of the competitor. Men may not know about this phenomenon, not even notice it. But this is yet another confirmation that the manifestation of jealousy in men is aimed at preserving his own genes.
Manifestation of jealousy
Now let's talk about how male jealousy is manifested, that is, what are the signs of jealousy in men (in order to recognize the danger in time):
- the man completely denies that he is jealous, moreover, the more he denies, the more jealousy;
- the man shows an unprecedented interest in your life - where and with whom was, about what was discussed, whom he saw, and so on;
- a man strictly controls your wardrobe - something more authentic, something more pore-colored, or better simply a veil;
- a man tries to minimize your social contacts - with friends, relatives, colleagues;
- a man is angry with you when you are together in the company - not so sat down, or said something, not so looked.
Is it possible to fight jealousy?
Perhaps, for women who wanted to know where the legs of male jealousy grow, the most interesting thing is how to deal with jealousy of a man? Cure of jealousy is impossible and not necessary, remember, jealousy is the fruit of evolution and too much our connection with nature. But a jealous woman can do a lot:
- cease to frankly flirt and build eyes to the first male creature in the presence of his male;
- Raise self-esteem of your jealous - tell him (convincingly!) that he is the most-the most intelligent, good, beautiful and beloved;
- most importantly - do not add the oils themselves to the fire, because women very often give men reason for jealousy for their own pleasure;
- if you do not give any reason for jealousy, and the rage of a man does not cease - go to a psychologist, because strong and pathological jealousy can lead to even murder and suicide .
Do not play with genes!
