Ok. I must tell you something (to make myself feel better). I am incredibly jealous. I was in such a competition called RockGirl 2008... me and my friend. We both got to a semifinal... and now she got to a final and I did not. I wish her the 1st prize, I do.. but at the same time I am soo jealous she got there and I didnt if we both got there or both didnt, it would be fine... but.. sorry. I am bad person. I know.. any opinions?
Its natural, if you had won and she didnt im sure she would feel exactly the same way, all i can say is try not to let it get to you and if its really bad then just talk to her and explain that you feel this way and spend time away from her / talking about it etc. Basically dont think about it. And i dont think you're a bad person
aw.. thanks for the last sentence I know it could be probably natural.. but you know... it's horrible to find out who you really are...
you're welcome Just because its what you feel now doesnt mean its who you really are, for a long time i was jealous of a friend of mine but it passed, its not who i am or who you are..
Of course it's natural to feel like that. But your feelings are mixed... yes, that's normal too in such a situation. But don't worry. Any competition is after all subjective, depending on the subjective opinions of the judges...
thank you both.. I thought you'd say me I'm bad and such.. good to see someone could feel so also... it's getting better now.. but you know... female ego is as big as male one.. maybe bigger :-D
being jealous is completely natural i'm jealous of a couple of my friends because i think they're so much better and more successful than me, but i don't let it get in the way of our friendship, or in the way of who i really am i just try to get past all the jealousy and concentrate on what really matters.
