Decoding Your Pisces Man: is He Jealous & Possessive?

Pisces men are often insecure and self-conscious. They are highly emotional and sensitive people. If your Pisces man is acting possessive or gets frequently jealous, these are all common reasons.

A Pisces man will try not to be possessive, though. He doesn’t want to control his partner. He tends to be trusting, so he’ll try to trust his partner even if he suspects something is going on.

If your Pisces man gets jealous, he likely won’t lash out. His jealousy can be unpredictable, so you never know what might make him jealous.

He’s Insecure

Pisces men tend to be insecure about their relationships. This can cause jealousy and possessive behavior, though that’s not always true.

If your Pisces man seems to be extra clingy or is acting possessive, insecurity is the reason. He thinks he might lose you, and he’s clinging to you a little harder to try and ensure that doesn’t happen.

Even a Pisces man in a relationship based on trust will be insecure sometimes. His insecurities aren’t always a sign that you’re doing anything wrong, so keep that in mind if your Pisces man sometimes feels insecure about your relationship.

When your Pisces man is feeling insecure, try to reassure him. He’ll be less likely to get jealous or to exhibit possessive behaviors if you go out of your way to make him feel better when his insecurities get the best of him.

This one weird trick is the only way to attract a Pisces man.

He’s Self-conscious

If you’re dating a Pisces man, you should know that he sometimes gets self-conscious. He gets uncomfortable with himself sometimes and with how others perceive him.

This has multiple effects on whether or not a Pisces man is jealous or possessive. On one hand, he will be overly aware of how he acts, so he won’t lash out when he’s feeling jealous because he won’t want to embarrass himself.

On the other hand, a self-conscious Pisces man may start to compare himself to other men in your life. He might get even more insecure if he thinks he doesn’t measure up to your exes or your male friends.

If your Pisces man is jealous of a man in your life, his self-consciousness might be behind it. He doesn’t think he’s good enough for you, and he’s worried that the other man is.

He’s Sensitive

A Pisces man is sensitive in more ways than one. He’s sensitive in the sense that he’s emotional but also sensitive in the intuitive sense.

If your Pisces man is acting jealous, it might be because his intuition is telling him something is wrong.

If you notice your Pisces man usually doesn’t act possessive, but he does when you’re around a particular male friend, he might be sensitive to how that friend acts around you.

His emotional sensitivity also means that if he gets jealous, you shouldn’t brush him aside. Even if you think he’s irrational, talk through things with him. Be mindful of his sensitivity and be patient with him.

He’s Highly Emotional

A Pisces man is emotional. Like his fellow water sign, Cancer, he will likely be one of the most emotional people you will ever meet!

Pisces men can’t control how they feel. Your Pisces man will get insecure sometimes, even if you’re not doing anything to make him feel that way. He may get jealous occasionally, as well.

This doesn’t necessarily make a Pisces man a jealous person, though. He’s not prone to fits of jealousy, and he’s not going to use that jealousy to try and control you, either.

Your Pisces man will feel jealous sometimes, but the feeling will pass. He’ll need to work through his emotions if you aren’t doing anything wrong. You can encourage him to talk to you about his feelings, and that will help him get over them.

He’s Trusting

If you’re in a relationship with a Pisces man, he probably trusts you. Some Pisces men are more trusting than others, but they typically only commit to people when they fully trust them.

His trusting nature can make a Pisces man less jealous and possessive. If he completely trusts you and knows you would never do anything to hurt or betray him, he’s not going to get upset just because you’re speaking to another man.

A Pisces man who fully trusts you might still feel insecure sometimes, but he’ll know his insecurities are his problem, not yours. If he does get jealous, he’ll work through it instead of accusing you of doing something wrong.

You can go out with your friends, and a Pisces man who trusts you will trust that you’re where you say you are. He likely won’t try to catch you in a lie or constantly demand to know what you’re up to.

He’s Clingy

Are Pisces men clingy? They definitely can be! A clingy Pisces man legitimately is not trying to be possessive or controlling.

Pisces men enjoy spending quality time with the people they love. If your Pisces man frequently sends texts saying he misses you and wants to spend more time with you, he’s not acting possessive. He genuinely wants to spend more time with you.

When your Pisces man sends multiple texts while you’re out with your friends, it’s not because he doesn’t trust you or he wants to know everything you’re doing at all times. He misses you and wants to talk to you.

If your Pisces man is a little too clingy for your liking, talk to him, but be kind. You can set specific boundaries while trying to make time for him so he knows you care.

He’s Forgiving

Are Pisces men controlling? They usually try not to be! Pisces men don’t want to control their partners or tell them what to do. Sometimes, they are too lax with the people they love.

Pisces men are incredibly forgiving, even when they shouldn’t be. If you flirt with an ex or a male friend, your Pisces man is more likely to forgive you than to lash out with jealousy or demand you don’t speak to that person again.

If your Pisces man loves you and wants to be with you, he’ll try to be forgiving. Even if you’re doing something suspicious or crossing boundaries in your relationship, he might try to look the other way and let it go.

Your Pisces man likely won’t get too mad at you if you stay out late or don’t give him a heads-up about who you will be with. He’ll forgive you, especially if you just made an honest mistake.

Is your Pisces man painfully distant? Rekindle your love.

He Tries Not to Be Possessive

Are Pisces men possessive? Many of them try not to be, though they can exhibit possessive behavior when feeling insecure in their relationship.

Your Pisces man doesn’t want to control you. He likely values your independence and wants you to be free to live your life in whatever way makes you happiest.

If you set clear boundaries with your Pisces man, he will respect them. If you want to go out with your friends, he won’t stop you. If you have male friends, your Pisces man won’t tell you that you’re not allowed to talk to them.

If your Pisces man does show possessive behaviors, talk to him. Let him know what you don’t like and set boundaries with him. He’ll usually try to do better and keep those behaviors under control.

He Won’t Lash Out When Jealous

How do Pisces men act when jealous? Most of the time, they won’t lash out, at least not in front of everyone. Your Pisces man isn’t going to compete with a man he’s jealous of or yell at you if you do something to make him feel jealous.

Your Pisces man will get jealous sometimes. He is a highly emotional person, and he can’t help how he feels sometimes. He can control how he acts, though.

An emotionally mature Pisces man will not lash out when jealous, but he will talk to you. He will tell you how he feels. He won’t blame you but will open up and discuss things with you.

Other Pisces men might try to ignore their jealousy, especially if they know they’re being irrational. It’s usually better for him to talk about what’s wrong. It’s good to keep things under control but not to bottle them up.

Is your Pisces man not communicating with you? Here's the trick to reel your Pisces back in.

His Jealousy Can Be Unpredictable

Are Pisces men jealous people? While Pisces men are not the jealous type like their fellow water sign, Scorpio, they do get jealous sometimes. Their jealousy can be unpredictable, though.

Your Pisces man may trust you completely and have no issue with you talking to an ex or having male friends. He may genuinely not get jealous about the idea of you talking to another man.

He might still get jealous out of nowhere, though. You may do the same thing multiple times without triggering his jealousy, but that same action might make him jealous the next time you do it.

If your Pisces man is already feeling insecure or upset about something, he’ll be more likely to get jealous. However, that’s not always the case. Sometimes, it genuinely comes out of nowhere. You can’t always predict what is and isn’t going to make him jealous.
