Guys: Would you try to make a girl you like jealous?

Okay, so my ex bf and i still talk and all, i never message him he messages me. He texts me everyday sometimes multiples times a day and hes all sweet and stuff, but just last night he was telling me he met this girl in the pool hall with his friend and got her number and he has a date with her today. do u think hes trying to make me jealous?

because the only reason we broke up is because he went off to college and hes coming back here next weekend for spring break and then for good May 2nd, and you dont talk to your ex like he has been if your over her, im just trying to figure out if i should be worried about this girl...

    He is still very interested in you and he is trying to gain some leverage. He thinks you will try a little harder if there is a little competition. Officially you are not dating right now so do not act like you have a problem with this. Don't bring it up - act like he never even told you. He's not a bad guy for trying to see if this bothers you to Gage your feelings but don't let it work and lose the upper hand you now have. Play it cool and he will knocking at your door as soon as he is back.

    Well, it seems that he is trying to make you jealous because he may want you back, or he just is trying to make you upset. Try asking him yourself to see what he says, of course there is always the fact that he may not tell you the truth, but whats the worst that could go wrong?

    I think he's lining you up for when he gets home but he's having his fun away from you at college. This probably isn't what you want to hear but next time he says something sweet to you, you should reply 'shouldn't you be telling this to the girl you met the other night'. He will either reply that he doesn't like her like he likes you then I suggest you tell him that if he likes you he should prove it and not go out with other girls or if he gets shitty about it then he's doing exactly what I said, lining you up and keeping you sweet for when he gets home but will happily sleep around with other girls in the meantime.

    No. A selfish son of a _____ would be the type to give a woman the impression that he likes more than one person at a time. He's trying to make you feel like he is the best you can so. Let him be free to manipulate someone else.

    btw; i`m a girl ~ (:

    & In my opinion, you can still talk to an ex even if you are over them, i still talk to some of my exes, and we flirt but we're just good friends(im a flirt, sometimes i dont even notice that i`m doing it!)

    Personally I don't think he is trying to make you jelous but it seems to be making you jelous anyways.

    Don't sweat it, it's no big deal, he's just baragging. All guys brag, its just what they like to do, he thinks it makes him seem, awesome.

    Yeah I think so, because you said he always messages you but you dont message him, he might think you are loosing interest in him so he's trying to get your attention by saying he's with another girl.

    lol all the girls answered that he is trying to make you jealous. All the guys said no.

    I say he isn't trying to make you jealous. He is just telling you and he probably doesn't realize that your thinking over it so hard

    I think he is definitely trying to make you jealous and maybe this is his way of finding out where you stand. if you get jealous u still want him if you dont then he knows hes wasting his time

    only if i got dumped. and that maybe. i would try to act cooler and make her notice me. not start dating someone else cause that gets a bad impression. you should get back with him. and yes he is. if he weren't he wouldn't bring something that awkward up. you should be worried. try and win him over by letting him gain your trust. a guy feels awkward if you don't let him kiss you or stuff like that. my older brother got back with a girl cause one night they stumbled over and started kissing. then he unfortunately told me they made love x(. but just try and get alone with him and win him over
