It does sound weird if the other person isn't a co-worker, colleague, nor a friend. But then you might doing it it for a business arrangement but if it's not for business...then it'd be weird.
Can anyone else name a relationship that excludes the ones above?
I see no problem at all. I think anyone should be able to talk and have a great time! If you guys snuggle afterwards and kiss goodbye, well then there might be something wrong with that.
If a guy asks you out for lunch and he knows you have a boyfriend? I'm sorry but I have a problem with that if I'm the boyfriend not eating at the lunch. When will people understand that guys don't want to be just friends with you. He's trying to go for you. I'd be plenty upset if you said yes to the date.
I think it depends on the intentions. If it's truly just a "friendly" lunch date and there's no interest or attraction on either side, then it seems pretty harmless to me.
There is no CONCRETE right or wrong in this situation. It's a maturity issue. Adults should know what's appropriate and inappropriate.
Likewise, jealously could be classified with statements like "I'm just pissed because I care." OR... that person could be a possessive, traumatized individual with a lack of self-confidence and severe insecurity issues.

It's really a case-by-case basis, no?
