I don't think it's just a matter of not caring, so if a person isn't jealous of the person in their life, I also think that they don't have love or value towards them. Of course, it's not right to be jealous to the point of paranoia, but still, whether a woman or a man, they want to experience the feeling of jealousy once in a while.
No, it just means he's confident in his relationship but it also means that the one he's in the relationship with shears that same confidence by not giving other men hints that she is single and vice verse.. therefore no jealousy just respect & trust in their relationship.
Jealousy is the combination of insecurity and distrust. The lack of these can mean 1 of 2 things: either he isn't one to fully invest or commit, or he is indeed secure and trusting and you haven't given him any reason to be.
Me and my boyfriend just discussed this last night, when somone gets jealous it just means they are scared to lose you, if they don't get jealous they either are worried about losing you or just don't care.
I'd have to agree with what you say. I always tell myself that I can trust my girlfriend not to let other guys get between us, but I do still allow her to go out with her male friends and such. Yes, I do get a little jealous but I don't let it plague me, it really does make me value what I have and reminds me I'm lucky to have her.
tl;dr - Yes, a little jealous is a good thing.

It depends what you mean by that. I'm much the same way. You're almost never going to see that side of me. That DOESN'T mean I don't ever feel jealous at all. But no, there is nothing wrong with this. On the contrary, I submit that if you need your partner to be jealous that speaks more to your insecurity of self worth.
For me personally, yes. I am like you. I believe that little amount of jealousy should always be present.

No, it just means he's secure and comfortable in the relationship and himself. I am the same, I have little tolerance for jealousy, insecurity isn't healthy to me.
I don't get jealous. If you're going to cheat you're going to cheat, and when I find out about it you'll be replaced. I'm not going to give myself an ulcer about it.
He just may not be the jealous type but if you would push a button, I think he might show some of his true colors then. Or hide them very well for you to tell then.
I would Say jealousy (regardless the amount) equals to toxicity if you will. You may like it but some of us sure as hell don't (Just like with smoking weed), so we distance ourselves from that or we are just confident.

Lack of jealousy can indicate that he doesn't care. It's okay to BE jealous, it's not okay to ACT on jealousy. She likes that I'm jealous when she brings a guy home and doesn't share, (she knows we will have a LOT of fun later), but I don't act on it... and that's because while I care, and I wish I were in her place, I'm very secure about my position with her.
No, for example im not jealous but not because i dont care, just because i trust my partner and i dont want to put pressure on her with useless jealousy. It depends on how much one trust the partner
Maybe he is very secure. Or maybe he thinks he respects you this way and shows that he trusts you. As long as he respects you and care for you what is the deal. Some guys dont want the drama
Sounds like me:) if a woman's trying to make me jelous that means she's playing games which I don't tolerate. That completely turns me off, I'll put her in the friend zone & find someone else or remain alone.

3 things come to my mind:
1 - he is a liar.
2 - he has a mental disorder blocking/lacking emotions.
3 - he is stupid (which probably is not the case, assuming he is not young).

It depends on what you're doing.
Like, it's very weird for you to hope for jealousy. He's right, it's a friggin waste of time, it's uncool to be jealous.
There are other ways to care, jealousy ain't one of them.

exactly.
To me jealousy is an unhealthy emotion that is a waste of energy. It has no connection to caring about a person whatsoever.

not being jealous is from being very self secure, being jealous is from being insecure and weak.
