It helps to deconstruct what jealousy is. Is it the fear of losing someone to others? Or is it possessiveness? He or she are mine like property? Or we are simply conditioned to react like that given certain situations that triggers jealousy? I found it’s easier to deal with jealousy once I understood the source of it and treat jealousy like a symptom not the cause.

These are good insights, but I meant how do you adress it within the concept of a non monogamous society.

First you'd have to know what it is that you want to address, right?

How do you address the feeling that the non-committed person you're sleeping with

1) Does not prioritize you

2) Finds somebody they like more than you

3) Not actually happy with you but still uses you

4) Is going to get STDs from other people

5) Will have less and less time for you because of others

6) Believes children can be raised "by a village" instead of their own hard work

7) Wants to involve other people in your life

8) Births a child with somebody else (maybe?) as the parent

9) The mere thought of them with another person grosses you out
