    You do realize 95% of the population can recognize themselves in this situation, right?

      Not really? As lightnsfw said, even if you’re monogamous you should be able to notice attractive people without it turning into a fight.

        And yet here we are. The joke wouldn’t work if literally every man couldn’t recognize this situation. Or are they all just mass deluded and you alone have seen the light? Just… Stop.

          It doesn’t! That explains it-- literally every man must not recognize this situation :)

          I know this situation only from people in unhealthy relationships. Repressed emotions like this can lead to cheating or mistrust

      Appeal to majority? I’ve never found the argument that “most people think this way” to be very compelling.
