I know this is probably a topic that is elsewhere but I'm not comfortable posting stuff elsewhere :oops: I was just wondering how jealous you get about other people like looks to marks and just everything. I always find myself extremely jealous of everyone whether it be because they can laugh about things and fit in or because they beat me in a test. If you have this problem how do you control it? I start hating those I actually like simply because of jealousy and I don't want to do that, it just takes me over. And if I'm jealous of someone for interacting with someone I'm close to I get annoyed at the person they were interacting with... then I'm left alone.
I just wanted some ideas on if anyone else has problems with being jealous and how you manage it, even if it isn't that teenagerish.

I find myself incredibly jealous of people, and I thought it was just me. Often my jealousy is because people have stronger friendships with certain people than I do, and it gets me down a lot. Also people getting better marks than me, and often because they have the motivation to work, whereas I find it difficult to get my head down unless it is a piece of work that really interests me. And just things like that ... being accepted and fitting in of course is an issue because I'm steadily realising more and more how much I really don't fit in anywhere. But here I'm finding threads and posts that sound just like how I feel; this is one of those.

I am jealous of couples...I can't stand to see them. >.<

I envy women in general...well, for the most part.

I thought it was mainly just me as well, but yay, I'm not alone - I'm not sure if that's good or bad though.
I love your avatar OrangeMage :)
I'd love to know what to do when I get jealous, because I get depressed and upset and hate people instead of just getting over it, and I'm still not over half of the stuff I'm jealous of.

I get jealous so much as well, except it may not be for tests, it could be for some other reason. But yeah, I don't take a liking in it either, since I don't want to hate anyone I know and/or respect.

I get jealous when I come around WrongPlanet, because everyone seems like they're having such a fun time without me, and I feel left out...

I also sometimes feel jealous of people who are tall, because I'm 14 and I'm only 4'11".... it sucks :(

I get jealous of people who can stand other people's negative and smart ass personalities. I am too sensitive for the negative, smart ass people. It's kind of funny because I can be a smart ass too.:lol:

I also get jealous of people if they are in the lime-light. And be comfortable with leading and taking charge.
