Jealousy is natural delution that we all have because we don't patiently accept our circumstances. It can even lead to outright Anger which is one of the most harmful staes of minds we can be under the influence of. Anger and jealousy exagerate the things we don't like and propells our mind to actually harm the object of our feelings. Patience is the antidote to anger and rejoicing is the antidote to jealousy. Try to be happy for others good fortune and be inspired by them rather than hurt. peace out :)

Never of what "they" have or who "they" are.... in fact the first time someone said I was jealous was when I was 3 or so (older sis)... I didn't even know what jealousy meant yet, but I remember thinking that whatever it meant, I was sure I wasn't the one being it... until now I feel sad for people who think I would ever envy them for anything they have... I'm just not that kind of a person... never been- never will be.

The only people I've been jealous of are women my expartner cheated with. It's a horrible feeling. Have never been jealous over what other people have, how they look or whatever...

We all do, and the people who tell you they don't are lying. It's a normal human reaction, partly because we see our own failings and we feel inferior. Don't worry about it, it's normal. The only time you should worry is if you get so jealous that you intend to go over to one of those people with a baseball bat and use their heads as a ball. That isn't too healthy - definitely not for them it isn't!

Comon'! Let's all be honest here......
Everyone feels jealous sometimes. The way others look, the things people have, how easy some people's lives are...
We can't help it.....by nature, we want to be better.

My husband has it bad. He can't even drive through the neighborhoods with multi-million $$ homes...it kills him because he lost 60% of his income since 911 (he's a pilot).
