I perceive jealousy as a fundamental element of a committed relationship.
A relationship in simple terms is your personal, emotional investment into another person. I believe it to be your right to ascertain whether that person behaves/acts worthy of the love and emotion you have for him/her.
To me, anyone who behaves suspiciously and must keep things secret is instantly ruled out. :)
I agree here, if you don't feel jealousy once in a while you basically showing you aren't committed. Its not about being secure or insecure here, if your emotions are committed to the relationship your feelings will signal you when something happens around your investment.
Lets say some guy/girl tries to smooth talk with your girl/guy. Its natural to be jealous. Only if you over react to these situations showing distrust in your partner is when it becomes a problem. You can be jealous from time to time and still have trust.
