It's unfair, irrational and yet very painful.
Or is it just envy? They had all the fun while I wanked it for all those years?

Yeah, it's not great. Especially because you (or at least I) feel like an absolute jackass for feeling it in the fist place.
I used to feel this about my girlfriend's former partners. For at least a year actually, when we started dating. Didn't make any sense to her. Didn't make any sense to me. Not like I didn't have partners, and that didn't drive her crazy. So... lots of shame about just having those feelings, at least for me.
Luckily it faded. Not sure when.
Jealousy, of any kind, sucks and is the worst.
