Are you jealous?

[anica]

Yea of course I feel jealous at times. It's simply human nature. Personally, i get jealous when they have something that I don't have. for instance, I have an older cousin and her mom used to brag about her being so perfect and being a quick learner, etc etc.

I don't ever get jealous of anyone because I'm happy with who I am. I think I'm pretty good at everything. You might hate on me for being arrogant, but that's just because you're jealous. Just kidding. But seriously, I think I've never been particularly jealous of anyone. I don't think I really care about what others have and what I don't have. I don't really notice it anyways. Even if I do, I'm really good at hiding it so I look like I'm not. heh heh

I feel jealous of my sister sometimes because she's really good at controlling what she eats. I eat too much and love every single food out there so it's hard to not eat. Whenever I see food, they start talking to me telling me that they taste good so I can't resist their tastiness. But she seems to be able to control herself from eating all that good food out there. One day I will overcome!

Yes, I have felt jelous of my younger cousin. When we were younger, we went to a cooking academy together. After the class, the teacher complimented my cousin, but not me. Since our age are similar, our family always compared us. Therefore, I felt jelous of my cousin like Agamemnon, but I did not treat her badly since we are a family. Thus, I did not express my feelings.

I used to be a very jealous person but not really anymore. Of course sometimes I compare myself to people but I think the difference between the past me and now is that I don't base how I treat people based on my jealousy. But sometimes I can't help but think of all the things that others have and it really puts me in a bad mood. Bad habit I need to break.

I also feel jealous of someone like others do. But, there could be two outcome of having jealousy to others. I feel jealous of others who are better than me in many areas. However, I respect them rather treating them badly. So I think as a human being, every people become jealous of someone.

personally, i never jealous to people and feel like hate them or want to do something bad to them. its just an envy feeling, like what elijah stated im just wishing that i have the thing that i dont. but its not gonna affect anything on my feeling toward that person.

I was once jealous of my cousin since she was good at things that I wasn't. I sometimes got the feeling that I was being compared with my cousin by my parents because they were always praising how she was so good at studying. However, I did not treat my cousin badly just because of that since it wasn't her fault for being so good at studying. It would be weird if you hate someone just because she is smarter than you.

It's a natural thing to be jealous over someone else. I feel jealous all the time and most of the time, I feel jealous of those who have special talents. For example, my sister is really good at writing essays. She writes incredible essays in like twenty minutes which usually take me like three hours. Also, she is so good at singing and dancing that even her friends in college ask her to perform for their festival; I have no skills like that.

I usually get jealous over something trivial so I end up forgetting about it. One example is I sometimes get jealous when I see some tall person, because I want that height. It's usually half respect/half jealousy for the people that I'm jealous towards, so I don't do anything bad to them. Also, if I did, I would feel terrible and pathetic for harming someone because they had what I didn't.

I think that everyone has felt the sense of jealousy at least once during their life. For instance, when I used to go to a public school in Korea during elementary school, I felt jealous of one of my best friends. She told me that her whole family was moving to America soon. Because I was only a first- grader back then, I was jealous of how she got to visit America and be able to stay in a whole different country where I have never been to before.

I do not see jealousy as a bad thing but just as a reminder that one cannot have everything he or she wants. When I was in elementary school, I felt jealous of a girl, who was one of my classmates and played piano very well for her age. But I later found out that she had to practice many hours everyday to reach that level and I respected for her persistence at that young age. Honestly, I did not have that much persistence to practice piano many hours every day.

I feel jealous when i see people who are better than something i want to be good at. For example when i see person who is more athletic than me i feel jealous. However, i think it is wrong to state jealousy as "bad". I feel motivated when i feel jealous. Whenever i see people who are better than me, i take that in to my account and motivate myself to be better than them. It is matter of how you take your jealousy into your life. Some idiots will do something such as harming them,but clever ones take that as their motivation and start building themselves.

[delmanykkfs]

Yep I do but the thing is I don't really show when I'm jealous about something, sometimes I can admited but mot of the times I dont show to other people what I am jealous about

[sarahlee4]

I think that no matter how many times a person denies the fact that they get jealous, its not like that. I would think of myself as a person who doesnt get jealous over things but when times come, haha you get jealous. I think jealousy is a natural element of a person! Getting jealous over things isnt a bad thing! It just shows that you care for whatever or whoever your being jealous over!
