jealous type
Suspicious romantic partner
A jealous type is someone prone to jealousy in romantic relationships—suspicious of partners, threatened by perceived rivals, possessive of attention.
The phrase often appears as a self-description or characterization: I'm not the jealous type, He seemed like the jealous type.
It implies a disposition rather than a momentary feeling.
