Are you falling for a new guy, or are you open for a new relationship? This is the perfect time for a lesson on how to spot the jealous type. It’s easy to overlook this flaw in the beginning. You can easily mistake it for affection. But, as time goes on, those nice little quirks can quickly turn into crazy obsessions and you don’t want that. By then, your heart is fully invested making it difficult to just break up. Here are some ways to spot that green eyed monster before he bites!

He touches you a lot when…

Other men come around. Suddenly, he’s more touchy feely when other men show up. He’s sending a signal that you are “his” and to back off.

He gets angry so easily…

Are you blindsided some times by his anger? Whether you’re out with your girls or staying late for work, he finds a reason to make you feel like you’re going to be interrogated.

When you talk about others…

He doesn’t want to hear about it. Male or female, when you bring them up, he’s suddenly uncomfortable or abruptly changes the subject.

When you wear your favorite mini skirt….

Or any other clothing you really like, does he immediately get into disapproval mode?

Peeps at your text messages…

Whenever you’re texting someone, do you feel a little birdie over your shoulder reading your every word?

There always needs to be a plus one…

If you feel like he’s always around, it’s because he probably is. You know a guy is jealous whenever he insists on being everywhere you are.

Social media stalking…

Does he always bring up conversations and pictures from Facebook? If you feel like he’s way to in “the know” about who liked what on your page, that’s a clear sign of jealousy.
