Do dogs and cats actually get jealous, or are we just projecting? | Aeon Essays
- The typical features of jealousy include the person who is jealous, the beloved who is the subject of jealousy, and the rival who is the object of jealousy. Othello is jealous because he thinks that his wife Desdemona is romantically involved with the soldier Cassio. Jealousy differs from envy, which requires only two individuals: to be jealous also requires a rival to threaten the relationship.
