Sometimes a man needs a little nudge to wake him up from his slumber and learn to really appreciate you. Making a man jealous works wonderfully for that. But if your problem is that you don’t know how to make him jealous, read on to find out how you can do it.

Have an active life

You’ve been hanging around your man for a while and you’ve always been at his beck and call. Well, if you want to make him jealous, that has to change. Have an active life. Reconnect with friends you’ve lost contact with, cultivate your interests, or look for a job change. Staying busy will make him want your time, and not getting it will surely make him jealous.

Start doing the things you would like to do, alone.

If your man likes extreme sports, try your luck or if it’s something simpler like tennis, practice squash and then start taking lessons. Your man will start to wonder why you are not asking him to join you and he will start to feel a little jealous as you do all the things that he would love to do.

Plan a trip with your friends

Get very excited about a trip to an exotic place with your friends. Talk about all the fun you hope to have and all the exciting things everyone is planning to do. He’ll get jealous thinking about why you didn’t even think about inviting him on this trip.

Go dance with your friend

Tell your man that you can’t go out with him one night, since he is dating his partner. Tell him that you are going to dance, that the evening was planned in advance and that you cannot cancel now. He will feel jealous as you will choose a friend instead of him.

Talk about a hunk at the office

Come home one night and talk about the new guy at the office who is also a hunk. Talk about how flirty shameless he is and how he complimented you over and over with such generous compliments. This has to make it look green.

Join a unisex gym

Join a unisex gym and talk about how the handsome guy helped you during your weight training.

Send yourself flowers

Ask a friend to send you some flowers without a card. When you receive it near your man, do not make a fuss and behave as if this is an everyday affair. It will make you jealous.
