I think it's an evolution artifact from the human past. It is definitely a survival mechanism which assures the survival of our offspring. With the exploding population crisis (8 billion people) it is definitely no longer needed. Aside the massive population problem, it is a very destructive behavior!
I don't see any other reason for jealousy than lack of self-esteem and insecuritiy issues. It's disappointing to feel that relation isn't as you wished. Friendship or lovers....that's sick possessive to think we own some person....
That's important to talk it out, do therapy and move on....or maybe some voodoo hehehehe no, but also a bit self-criticism, checking on our own acts......Why be with someone who you're not attracted or don't love you anymore?

someone sells some worthless book for good money, while you cannot sell yours that is many times better or someone scams someone for money and you have hard time paying your bills, although you work hard. There are many similar examples in our lives where we could feel (and do feel) envy - at least for a while - for a couple of minutes/hours until we get back into balance.
It's the same with jealousy in a relationship. People can't be indifferent if their partner flirts with someone else. If they are - isn't that also the signal that something is wrong? You need to have the feeling of belonging to someone in a relationship. The feeling that someone is 'yours'. (Not in some obsessive possessive way, but in a normal way - that you are a couple and belong to each other). smile
Little advice;

I trust my partner enough to not be jealous. Should I ever feel the need to be jealous (which I haven't had any problems with in the past) it would tell me that there is something going on with my partner that shouldn't.
I do think that there is something wrong with people with extreme jealousy - let it be towards a partner (either issues with their own self-esteem or issues that they can't leave a cheating a**hole) or towards other people. I'm happy if something good happens to my friends and family members and it is a real eye opener (and turn off) if people tell me how "jealous" they are of what other people have and that they are incapable of being happy for people they call their "friends".
I dated a long time ago, she got mad at me because I didn't get jealous.
She said, "I just talked to my ex-boyfriend, and you didn't get jealous?"
I answered, "Nah, what for? If you want to be with me, okay. If you want to go back to him, okay."
Then for some reason, oh I don't know why, she shouted, "That's it! I'm through with you. If you can't get jealous after I just talked to my ex, then I don't want you!"
Sheesh! I was just trying to be nice and not make a big deal about it. What'd I say that made her mad?
