Tip to make him jealous

The best thing about making a guy jealous is that it’s too easy. Men get jealous, like when you look hot, and they know that they are not with you or when you are flirting with anybody else, or when you ignore them for a while. It’s just male bravado that they want everything easily and does not want to work for anything. Now using jealousy, you can turn that table in your favor and make them work for you. So here are some of the ways you can make a guy jealous.

Look Sexy

First things first, guys are very visual so dressing up and looking sexy is the easiest way. But even for the other tricks to be more effective, you need to look sexy, so it’s a default step to make a guy jealous. For this to be most effective, you need to know his likes and dislikes. Some guys like a girl with a ponytail but most like open hair; some likes blondes and some brunettes. Knowing these kinds of things can give you a leg up when trying to make him jealous. But one thing common in all guys is they like a bit display of skin, yes a bit creepy, but guys will be guys.

Be a Flirt

Being a flirt is way too much fun; plus, this way, it helps you to get all nervousness out before you get to flirt with the guy you want. Nothing will make a guy more jealous than watching a girl he likes flirting with his friend. So, compliment his friends and flirt with him a bit, so he doesn’t feel left out. Also, doing this will help you develop a repo with the guys as the cool chick. So if a guy likes you, this will give him that boost he needs to approach you and make him work twice as hard to impress you.

Ignore Him

The only thing guys hate when they like a girl is when that girl ignores them. Guys can’t handle the fact that they are not your priority, so why not use it to make them jealous a bit. Don’t show that you are just waiting around for his phone call, even if you are. If you are on guys back and call, then sooner or later, this guy would interest you, and that’s not what you want. So don’t pick up the phone on the first ring, let him suffer a bit, and make him call you twice or three times if you feel like it. But remember not to take it too far. So if a guy has worked to get your attention, then you should give him some; otherwise, you will wear him out, and he may stop chasing you altogether.

Group Hangouts

Group hangouts can work in two ways. First, when you have female friends, You can use the group hangout to distract you and help ignore them. Secondly, when you have male friends, then it’s just pure jealousy for your guy. If you are in a relationship, this will help spice it up and even tell how much he cares. And if you are in the getting to know each other or dating phase, then this can be the one thing that makes girlfriend and boyfriend. But if you are just friends wanting more, this is the best thing for you because it brings out all kinds of feelings from him, which tells you if he is interested.

Use Technology

One of the best things about these days you can make them jealous without even meeting them face to face. With the help of technology, it’s quite easy to make a guy jealous as well. Taking selfies with male friends and posting them on your Instagram and Facebook page is one way to do it. If you are uncomfortable posing with guys, you can always post pictures with your female friends at a party or concert, having a great time without him.

Doing all this lets him know that you have a great life without him and don’t really need him. And the thing with guys is they like to be needed, so when you post these pictures, it makes them feel a bit insecure and jealous. So technology, in our case, can be an excellent thing, but only if you use it wisely and not overuse it.

What to Avoid when making him jealous

As I have mentioned before, Jealousy is tricky; if done poorly can do more harm than good. Sometimes people don’t know what they are doing and end up making someone jealous, and other times they try too hard and lose the person. Now that you have learned about how to go about jealousy, it’s only fair that you get some warnings and some don’ts before you start making your guy jealous. So, here are some things you need to know.

Don’t Be Obvious

When trying to make a guy jealous, you can’t be too obvious about it. First, sometimes girls try to pretend that they are having a good time when the guy enters the room, and let me tell you, a guy can tell pretend fun from actual fun in an instant. So please don’t do that; instead, continue what you were doing as you clearly were having fun without him. Secondly, sometimes girls try to make him jealous so much that they constantly flirt with his best friend and no one else or send him selfies with another guy.

Now doing all this is being too obvious. Instead of flirting with his best friend, compliment his friend in front of him and walk away, and instead of sending selfies to him, post them on Facebook wall tagging your blabbermouth friend. Doing both things will get his attention but won’t make it too obvious.

Don’t Go Overboard

It is prevalent when making a guy jealous to lose track of your end game. You slip and tend to go overboard, losing the guy completely. If you want to make a particular guy jealous, then flirt with his friend only for a couple of minutes. This flirting should be simple as you like what he is wearing or other things you notice. After this, shift your focus to your guy when he tries to get your attention back a couple of times. Please don’t give your utmost attention to him at the first instant. You need to make him wait just long enough not to feel you are not his level.

If you go overboard, the guy might feel insecure and never try to get with you again. So remember to push him enough but not more than that. You will know this from his facial expressions and body language, so look out for those.

Keep in mind not to forget your goal when using jealousy. Sometimes people have so much fun making the other person jealous that they completely forget their goal and ruin it. So keep it short, sweet, and harmless. Jealousy is supposed to be a fun banter to spice your relationship up a bit. If you are not in one, then perhaps using it can help you start. Just remember to have lots of fun when doing it and stop when it’s not fun anymore.
