Depends often it is fear of loss and not being secure in the relationship. Sometimes just hearing others stories of divorces and failed relationships.

But for me I'm not jealous I know my wife will always be the one to love me and come back home.

When my wife is pregnant she is more bi then normal so often we have other women in our bed together and it is great steamy fun! She loves it so much and I enjoy doing it also! Right now she is 2 months along and we are looking for a 3rd wanna join in?

In terms of dating and relationships, I think the number one cause is being jealous of other guys who have very attractive girlfriends. *However* -- I think it's important to recognize that many men, myself included, are surprisingly improved by jealousy. When a beautiful woman goes out of her way to make me jealous, I get really, really sweet, and if she lets me spoil her and her boyfriend I'm some way, I probably will:)

There are many root causes of jealousy, but I'd say insecurities, low self-esteem, and fear of abandonment are some of the main factors that cause it.

Insecurity. They fear that their partner will leave them for someone else because they feel inferior to others.

Insecurity - the fear that their partner will prefer someone else

depends on the situation, jealousy can come from different ways

It's no different than the roots causes of jealously in women. It could be due to insecurity, past trauma, or if their partner behaves in ways that make them jealous, intentionally or unintentionally.
