I would have to say all of them together. It could only mean they had made a deal with dark forces. I never get offers from dark forces and it pisses me off.
I’m jealous of people who are more naturally gregarious than I am. I try to be nice, but so many people irritate me that I’ve gone to a policy of being aloof most of the time.
I can be jealous of people who are more intelligent than I am. This includes people who are better read than I am, and also people who are more talented artistically (which is strange, since I’m not really an artist).
I try to assuage this feeling by aspiring to be like them and making them my role model. That is, unless they’re assholes. Then I just resort to jealousy-induced hatred and I talk shit behind their backs.
There are those (I’m talking about uni here) who are so laid back, don’t really give a crap about anything, don’t work, yet when it comes down to exams and mid-terms they ace the darned thing. They’re so freakin’ talented it just leaves me speechless.
So I’m selecting 1), 2) and 4). As for 6) (a perfect sitcom type family), I have to wonder if those really exist
Have found the perfect mate in their lives
Are more successful in their careers
Have more patience
Have less body hair (applies to fellow males)
Are more intelligent and have more knowledge about wordly matters
Can make meaningful, entertaining conversation with anyone at any time
Are more generous and thoughtful of others
People who have money, whether they deserve it or not, make me sick with envy. Especially if they spend large chunks in ways I consider frivolous, although intellectually I know it’s none of my damn business.
I am envious of people who have supportive and normal parents. What I wouldn’t give to have parents who could do normal parent things and not have tonnes of baggage attached.
Mind you, neither of my parents do normal parent things (be there for birth of grandkids, help out with moving, babysitting, etc) but I’m not sure I’d want them to.
Mostly, I want to be able to trust my parents to do the right thing. I want to have been their priority growing up.
So, in summary, I envy people with wonderful parents and/or siblings.
I do envy some of those things some of the time, although cooler toys never really. That’s just not important to me.
What I really envy, though—and this may sound circuitous—is people who don’t envy others. People who are content with what they have, and don’t spend time worrying about what others have and how they compare.
I envy people who love what they do and do it well, who are intelligent, naturally charasmatic, and who other people are very drawn too. I envy people who are more disciplined about their lives than I am, more compassionate, more patient with themselves, and more worldly. I’ve also been envious of women who are well-endowed and have naturally beautiful hair
I envy alot of people and I have found it to be attraction that pisses me off, also the main emphasis of my envy is missing out on something else, could someone reassure me about this, cause I
I envy alot of people and I have found it to be attraction that pisses me off, also the main emphasis of my envy is missing out on something else, could someone reassure me about this, cause I feel down at the moment about it.
<sorry about uploading this on you guys, I just hope i’m not on my own with this>
I envy people with the babysitter-type grandparents. I want to go out with my hubby so badly but it’ll be years before we can go out alone.
Also, because I’m a small, small person, I envy people who are thinner than me. Not because they’re thin but because they have more options clothing-wise than I do. The kicker is, I’m not even fat!
I also envy people with better cars than me. Don’t ask, I’m just a petty person.
I envy people who are better read than me, too. I don’t have time to read these days and when I do it’s usualy some tech book (I’m reading Adobe Acrobat books right now and next I’ll be reading about Active Directory…joy).
I’m jealous of girls who are skinnier than I am. I’m not a dog or anything, and I do have a really hot husband (:)) so I can’t be too bad, but I really wish I was as skinny as I used to be. So when I see skinny little college girls around town I get jealous. I tend to think “I wish I could see you in 10 years when you put on your weight.”
I’m jealous of people who have more money than I do. I’m not living in the poor house, but I certainly live from paycheck to paycheck. I guess on the upside, our paychecks are for slightly more than our monthly bills. haha But still, I am jealous of those people who can just go spend money with out worrying about it.
I’m jealous of people who have a lot of talent at things. Since I was pretty young (like 10) I’ve always felt let down that I have no huge talent. I can’t sing, don’t play any instruments well, I can’t draw, I’m not really talented at writing, I’m not gifted at math… See where I’m going? I sometimes feel like God accidentally forgot to zap me with a talent of some sort. haha So I’m jealous of those people who have it!
