I’ve noticed that some men tend to be so jealous of their wives, getting very jealous if other men talk to them. In your opinions, why is this? Is it because they themselves are flirts & think other men are like them? Just curious. Thanks.

yes
Yes, they project their own insecurities on their wives. That way they can try to blame their wife when they do cheat, by saying they would not have cheated if their wife wasn’t always flirting with other men.
No, when my husband had an affair 23 yrs ago he was not acting jealous of me, he was acting normal. so I would say it depends on the man.
It’s because they are insecure.
I don’t think jealous spouses are more likely to cheat. I think jealous spouses are more likely to beat.
No.
Some people are just insecure; they may have self-esteem issues or be paranoid or may just be overly possessive people.
Sure, some possessive guys will cheat. Some relaxed guys will cheat.
I’ve heard more of the latter.
And this projection nonsense is… nonsense. Think of how many women are possessive: lots. Far more than men, in my experience.
Are they all cheats? This is just a case of modern sexism, where gobby women are trying to suggest all men are evil because they got burned once (probably because they’re gobby and intolerable).
You have to take people as they are and not tar them all with some pseudo-psychology statistics.
I think so because you feel like if I can do it maybe she can too
I wouldn’t think this is any more or less likely to be The Reason…
because there are just SO MANY from which to choose.
This is for sure the m.o. of some guys, though — and gals, too.
YES,..
yes I have heard this is the case
