But so too does blame fall on the shoulders of those upon which the jealousy is focused.


While yes jealousy can grip us and cause debilitating resentment but to say it is wrong somehow blames the 'victim'.

It's not just about the resentment it is about how the situation was allowed to happen.
I agree with your views, you are right for some situations in which other person has an obligation to act upon and make right the situation.
