I'm jealous of almost everyone

I'm jealous of people in relationships.

I'm jealous of that most people are social.


I'm jealous of my family and how they are all normal but i have to live with this disorder .

I'm jealous of people who die by choice or not
and if by choice I'm jealous that they have the guts to end it all .

I hope others don't think this way it's a horrible way to think.

I am jealous because you are jealous. But if I was jealous, too, then there is no point for me to be jealous. Therefore I am not jealous. Logical contradiction. It seems that jealousy is completely illogical behavior.

i used to think that way. then i quit overanalyzing life itself. don't downplay yourself. quit putting the whole world around you on a pedestal. find your zen.

I am a very jealous person for the most part. I hate it because I truly feel that jealousy and anger and hate and negativity all go hand-in-hand together.


I'm jealous of almost everyone:


I have been jealous of a good number of people, but I also recognize that I am fortunate compared to many others, too. This will always be a constant battle, though. Even if I look at the brightside and the things I should be grateful for, I think it's still human nature to want more.


I'm jealous of people in relationships:

Yes, I am still a bit jealous of this. And sadly, I get jealous of other couples when I am in a relationship, too! Maybe it is because I have low-self esteem and wonder why people ever like me or if they really love me like they say they do. So, if I see a happy looking couple - I wonder if my relationship is just as genuine.

I'm jealous of that most people are social:

Yes and no. I'd be lying to say that I don't want to be more social. But, at the same time, I am also proud that I am a little different in a world full of extroverts. I think we actually need more quiet, introvert personalities.There is nothing wrong with having a low social threshold. I think we become jealous of social peoples opportunities more so than who they are: perhaps they are better at smooth talking in an interview or workplace, etc. I do like that they are more at ease in a social situation and can say what they want. I would not mind being quiet - as long as I was completely comfortable with myself and talked with ease when I wanted to say something. I'd much prefer quiet confidence and charm over being extremely social with nothing good to say. It's my anxious quietness that bothers me.


I'm jealous of my family and how they are all normal but i have to live with this disorder:

This bothers me as well. My mom's side of the family (not all of them, but a good number) are quiet, while my dad's side is loud and outgoing to an extreme. I think to myself, "I couldn't have inherited at least some of their vibrant personality and humour. Not even half?"

I'm jealous of people who die by choice or not:

I can't exactly say I am jealous about this. Though, I guess I would be jealous if the person had led a happy, fun, worthwhile life and then died. If I was on my deathbed right now, then I would be totally jealous of those who died having actually lived life to their fullest. And I guess there is a tint of jealosuy knowing that their troubles are over. But, you also must keep in mind that some have missed out on life (whether they died early or just died miserable or old.) They can't have the opportunity for things to get even better. We can.
 
yours is a lovely response moonie; i like that u dont negate sams emotions. thats why im here cos i dont need ot be told to get over it. i just have to step out the door for that. i wnat my negative emotions to be ok too. thats part of the problem they arent socially acceptable. i gotta pretend

Yes, jealousy is a evil thing, but quite reasonable in certain situations.

I'm jealous about social skills which people have, about their high self-esteem and about their ability to cope with routine social situations, which is very embarrassing for me.

Yes, I'm definitely jealous of people in relationships. Whenever I am walking on the streets and see a couples holding their hands or kissing on the bench in a park, I have a feeling that I'll burst out from inside. I feel envy and anger at the same time. I know that isn't right, but simply can't think otherwise.

I'm jealous of people who can function socially.

When you think about it there's probably a whole lot of people who will be jealous of yourself, for example a person in a wheelchair would be jealous that we can walk....Yet i can't count my blessings and appreciate what i have, i just can't! I'm never happy but i should be in reality.

I completely understand your plight. I too have felt such anger at the injustice of my lot in life. Oh the bitterly wonderful little jokes life plays no? Give all the ignorant fools a high standing in society, give them peace, give them prosperity, give them good fortune at no cost whatsoever, and give us? Nothing. Nothing but our shattered minds, our tortured souls, and our envy for death though it may not come.

I get jealous when I see couples being together and hugging, holding hands, etc... nice families.. kids playing with their friends or their parents spending time with them, being nice to them, buying them toys and candy... Everytime I see those scenes I just want to puke... It sickens me. And I feel even worse for having these thoughts...
