 Why are guys trying to make girls jealous and wanting to hurt like that from my ex amazing how smart you are? Why do guys try to make girls jealous? Well, first I, you know, I question whether he's actually trying to make you jealous or not. A lot of times people assume that people are doing certain things to hurt other people and that's not always what they're doing. So I'd question that and if he is doing that then I'd ask what's going on, what else is going on in this situation because usually people only try to hurt other people when they're hurting and that's actually exactly what we've been talking about here. That's what Stephanie Rogers was talking about where hurt people hurt people, right? Like hurt people hurt people and so if somebody wants to hurt another person is because they're hurting and they're not healed and so that's why hurt people hurt people.
