I haven't been jealous in a very long time. And when I was, it was probably insecurity. Some of it merited, mind you, some of it not.
its a lacking in the person feeling jealous..insecurity usually like maddog said, self esteem issues also in some people..
some people also like a jealous partner..purposely pick them then only to act very flirty and bring on situations that cause extreme jealousy cos it makes them feel wanted..
u take a relationship with both those personalities in play..uve a dangerous situation just waiting to happen.
Never be jealous of your ex if you see them with someone else.... After all, your parents always taught you to give your USED toys to the less fortunate.

Jealousy is connected directly to insecurity and issues around self worth and self esteem plain and simple
and the only way to sort it is for jealous person to explore with a good therapist what it is about and where it came from or when those feelings started
My ex was very jealous when I spoke to any of his mates, who he insisted on meeting anytime we went out. If I spoke to their wives/partners he would ask me later what we were talking about. It got so bad, that I stopped going to the pub with him - only went out for meals or movies, or anywhere his mates were unlikely to be. That was the begining of the end. I suppose it was his jealousy that finished us, but I'm happier now than in 12 years of marriage. I can be myself when I go out and not be worrying if someone is getting jealous.

Yep. Its psychotic behaviour that distorts the most normal of social interaction.
