Then we somehow started talking again around July 2012, that lasted until December 2012 as we suggested 'friends with benefits' and then one day we literally just stopped texting each other. (I should probably mention that we go to the same college and we met through one of my friends who's close to him)Although, every time I see him liking my friends (who is ridiculously pretty) photo's on facebook or expressing what they're both doing on twitter, it gets to me and i get jealous. Why am i getting jealous?

 It is natural for someone you have been involved with to feel a bit of jealousy when you see them with someone attractive. I'd be very surprised if you find any woman on earth who doesnt go on Facebook from time to time and look at their ex's and who their new girlfriend is and what she looks like!
I wouldnt worry too much - this 'arrangement' came to an end naturally as you both just stopped talking to each other, clearly there are no strong feelings there so nothing to be too attached to. You are probably just a bit jealous he is talking to a pretty girl when you are currently single, but if you found a new guy I'm sure you would soon forget about him.
And one final thing - never have FWB when you are so young! At your age you should not be having causal sexual relationships, you are putting your health at risk and when you get older you will regret it because no guy is going to want you when you are older if you were 'easy' when you were young. Just look around on this site and see all the posts from men who hate their girlfriend's sexual past because she slept around so much. Being so easy is only going to come back to bite you when you are older, so please dont get into any more FWB!
FWB should only be for 2 adults that have no feelings for each other and just want sex occasionally because they are a bit horny whilst they are single. If a teenage boy wants a FWB then he is clearly using you for sex, and normally girls fall for this thinking that if they have sex with the guy then he will fall in love with them and like her more - but that never works.
Stay away from FWB until you are old enough to control your feelings and hormones, and are old enough to understand what you are getting yourself into.
