Signs of Jealous Men

He calls you all the time 

Jealous men feel the urge to always know where their partners are and what they are doing. If your boyfriend calls you all the time and becomes upset when he can not reach you (or when you deliberately do not pick it up), then there is a good chance that he has the potential to be an overly-jealous boyfriend, especially if you find him can not contain his anger and becomes more violent - in words and in deeds. 

Something always comes up that needs your time

You may not realize it, but it is another important sign of potentially overly jealous men: does it seem that he always comes up with something that needs your help? And it happens again and again that over time it affects your social routine?

Overly jealous men are known to create scenarios just to make you always within their sights. Rather than meeting with your friends, you will be there assisting him passing the screw-driver when he is fixing his compo or dictating some text while he is typing it into a report "for tomorrow". Of course you would not mind at first. After all, it is part of romantic relationship building, isn't it?

But that's only the tricks that men with jealous problem often do to keep their women within their sights as long as they can. If your boyfriend is one of those overly jealous men, there will be many and many more things to do that he needs your company. Over time, all that will divorce you from your everyday friends and activities - just the way he wants.

He starts saying bad things about your friends

Overly jealous men, when they feel that they have been able to somewhat separate you physically from your friends, will start to say bad things about them. They will say that your friends are not really your true friends, thus isolating you further from them if you take his words.

He starts criticizing you

This is what makes overly jealous men very bad for your health. At this stage, it is most probably that you have been to deeply involved with an sickly jealous man. It may not be as easy for you to get rid of him as before. But, as the saying says "The truth shall make you free", by knowing this truth you may be able to regroup and decide what is best for your own self.

Jealous men, when they feel that they have been able to alienate their woman from the people who used to support her, when they see that she no longer hase anybody else to turn to but him, will start criticizing her - often to the extent of making derogatory comments about about her, even before his friends.

A jealous man feels insecure, bad, about himself. So, in order to make you stay, he will try to make you feel bad about yourself, too, in anyway he can think of. That way, (he hopes, unconsciously though) you would never think again that anybody else would want you. He would try to make you believe how lucky you are to have him to take you.

Because now you have only him, his words would be so much more meaningful to you. Overtime, you would be very dependent on him and would truly believe what he said was true. Your own identity would become a thing of the past. Your "ex" friends may make many worried comments to you but you would just ignore them or make excuses for it.

That's eight signs that you can use to spot whether your (next-to-be) boyfriend hides an acute jealousy problem or not. Of course there are some other signs that are more subtle such as telling you the way he likes you to dress, but that might be too misleading because some men indeed have their own preferences on how their girls should cloth themselves.
