A jealous man is not driven by love for a woman but by the fear of humiliation caused by betrayal.
A jealous man is not driven by love for a woman but by the fear of humiliation caused by betrayal.
This quote suggests that jealousy isn't primarily rooted in love, but rather in the fear of personal embarrassment and betrayal. When a man feels jealous, it's not necessarily because his love is so deep, but because he’s anxious about the possibility of being humiliated if the woman he loves might betray him. The focus of jealousy, according to this perspective, is on his own ego and insecurities rather than on genuine affection or concern for the woman's feelings and well-being.
