Just tell your husband what you want. In my younger days, I always felt that it's nice to be surprised occasionally with flowers or gifts (without me asking directly) but I end up in disappointment when I don't get them. So, why make yourself miserable? These days, I just tell my man what I want. For example, in my recent birthday, I reminded my husband that this year I don't want gerberras. Would prefer some other flowers instead. I even gave him the discount codes for a few florists! Haha! End of day, I got what I want, which is a mixed bouquet of lilies and roses. I'm happy and my man felt good cos he made the wife happy.
Bottom line is, don't expect men to read your mind. Tell him what you want (within his means, of course) and I'm sure the jealous situation will get better. Alternatively, you can choose to unfollow some of the friends' news feed if you think you are going to be affected by what they post.
Good luck.
