You have a bad starter. It is getting weak that's why when you had it jumped it started. When you jump start a vehicle that does not have a bad battery you ar increasing the cranking amps so a weak starter will work. It is not a good idea to disconnect the terminals on the car while it is running though because it is extremely easy to fry your engines computer. You got lucky that time but I would not do it again. Hope I have been helpful.
