When I say I'm jealous I don't mean with money or finances, I mean with friends. I get very jealous very easily if one friend is getting more attention than the other, I do not show my jealousy but inside I'm burning with jealousy. How can I stop being jealous? Or at least not be so jealous so easily?

I dont think there is an easy way to stop being jealous. You just need to find ways to calm yourself down take deep breaths, count in your head, do something else to take your mind off it and give yourself something to do. That is the best you can do i guess. I know its stupid to say but try not to let it bother you so much, think about bigger problems if that helps, make you realise that it's nothing to be jealous of.
Hope i helped a little.

I usually start like singing in my head, or take ny phone out abd start texting random ppl, 1 so im not paying attention to jealously, and 2 so i dont like awkwardly stand there.

Hmm, if you feel like the other person is getting more attention then you are then try and get there attention as a whole not like only you talk to them but so everyone is talking and no one is left out. You can't always expect all the attention, let them talk to each and tey and get back in the convo or whatever you guys are doing

Just try to cool down, don't acknowledge it. Jealousy isn't really a good trait, and can lead to some shaky situations if you don't handle it well.
