2) A Jealous lover: suspicious, distrustful, mistrustful, doubting, insecure, anxious, possessive, proprietorial, overprotective.

The only thing that means exactly "jealous" is "A jealous person.".
A jealous person would be someone who is hostile towards you because they think you have an advantage, or something that they don't have.
A person could also be "envious", that would mean that they want what you have, or the advantage that you have, though they aren't actively hostile because of it.
