The Green-Eyed Monster was actually Cupid. Hera put a curse on Cupid so that he would be transformed if he felt unrequited love for a mortal. If he transformed three times, the change would be permanent. Aphrodite claimed that the curse was punishment for stealing one of Hera's old boyfriends (which perplexed her more than anything, since "he wasn't even that cute") and because Hera was jealous she'd never be as beautiful as her.
