I'm not sure who gave you the idea that it is us the reader/player that has to feel jealous for it to be NTR.

- "As a fetish, NTR hentai are designed to provoke jealousy in the audience by proxy by having a character indulge in sexual activity with someone other than the protagonist."

- "The story will then show the aforementioned heroine being intimate with another man (another girl just doesn't pack the same punch), thus provoking jealousy in the audience by proxy."This is what NTR has traditionally always been about and you see it even now with adult games. People cry "NTR" because they're seeing a girl they like doing something with someone else and it's because it has provoked jealousy in them as a proxy for the MC/protagonist.
The problem is that it's become distorted in recent years by people who don't want any female character to do anything with someone else, even when it's been established that the MC will not have anything to do with them and/or doesn't view them in a romantic or sexual way. Instead of being the proxy for the MC's feelings, they are imposing their feelings on to the MC and have started calling anything that doesn't involve the MC as "NTR".
