A time I experienced jealousy is when I didn’t do very good in one of my events and I was jealous of other people getting a pr that day. It made me feel angry with myself and I just brushed off that feeling to go to my next event.

This has definitely happened to me before. But I agree that brushing it off and going to your next event is the best way to deal with it!

I really don’t get jealous often. When I do, it’s not memorable because it doesn’t last too long. At this point, I try to acknowledge people’s successes and celebrate with them because they deserve to have happiness in their life, just as I have my own triumphs.

I wish I didn't jealous often, I'm always jealous of at least someone. Man I sound like an awful person right now.

You don’t sound awful, Kennedi. Jealousy is normal, it’s just a personal thing for me to try and always see through it. It took a while to get to this point. Though, it’s not a path for everyone.

The last time I felt jealousy was when I got left out from my friend group when they hung out with someone that I liked. I got pretty jealous cause I wasn’t included and my feelings were hurt. I didn’t really deal with it that much. I just tried to ignore it and be more included.

I used to be jealous of that too, but now I just don't care, I always feel out of place anyways.

I felt jealousy when I was little and my sister had always won all these music awards. It made me feel like I needed to match those expectations for my family. This lead me to keep practicing, but also to except that we are not the same person and that we will have our differences.

I think that it is really cool how you used that jealousy as a strive to make yourself better, but while doing so you acknowledged that you are your own person and that you have your own things you succeed at.

I was also jealous of my brother's running abilities, but after hitting middle school, I saw I was more of a sprinter than a runner.

A time I experienced jealousy was when a kid got the gift I really wanted, and then he flaunted it around. It made me very upset, but then the kid broke the thing while bragging about it. So I felt better and I realized that it looked cool, but it was really bad.

A time I have experienced jealousy would be when I see people who also wrestle eat a bunch of candy or foods that I try to stay away from and they are still perfectly fine on weight. This made me frustrated because I am working really hard trying to stay healthy while they snack on sweets and don't have to worry about the consequences. I didn't do anything I just sat there wishing I could have some but don't cause it could ruin all the work I've put in so far.

I try not to keep track of things like this, so I know I do get jealous sometimes but I can't specifically say why or for what. I guess one thing that can make me jealous is when other people don't even try at something and do a lot better than me when I'm trying my very hardest.

I feel jealous of my sister because her hair is thicker and longer than mine and my parents let her do things I would have never been allowed to do at her age, such as date people. Which I'm still not allowed to do, so what the heck bro? Also, she's popular and good at what she does.

I've been jealous for way too many things, that I don't care to explain. It made me feel awful and I didn't want to be around the person I was jealous of. I just couldn't stand to be around them.

One time I felt jealous when someone tripped me in a race that I was pretty sure I was gonna PR, and most of the other people in that race got their PR. It made me feel angry. I responded by talking to my friends saying I should go knock the light out of him. But I decided not to.

I hate when this happens, but it's probably best that you did not knock the light out of him. Although they definitely deserved it.

It’s good that you thought about your options and decisions before acting on them, not everyone does that.

I remember when this happened, I believe you were valid to be mad and I also think its good you didn't go and fight him because even though it'd may make you feel better it wouldn't solve the problem and could make it worse.

I felt Jelly once when my family went to Williams lake without me and went tubing. I got really mad and moped around for a while. It made me absolutely infuriated and a kind of longing feeling to have gone and tubed.

I've been jealous many times before, I'd prefer to keep these things privtate though, it seems petty when I bring these things up now. But when I am jealous it makes me feel mentally drained, I also feel like I am a burden to others because of my sour mood. I usually respond with isolating myself so I don't do something stupid because of my mood,and so I don't make other people feel bad because of my jealousy.

At a family reunion, I was hanging out with my cousins on a balcony one night. Some music was playing, and my cousins started dancing, - like actual dancing with lifts and different suitable styles of ballroom. They are all really good. After moping for a while because I am not that talented, I got over myself and had fun with them.

One of my friends once got a really cool bike for christmas, when we were younger. I got some pretty cool presents as well but I really wanted a bike. That bike specifically. But then I realized that he was my friend and he would let me ride his bike anyway. We were then both happy and he is still one of my best friends.

A time I got jealous was just recently when Pace said we had to make tik tok like stuff for our book project. For starters, I can't stand listening to my own voice or looking at my face in videos or pictures, so I'm jealous of people who can withstand that. Another thing is that I'm jealous of those with good editing skills, since they can make their videos seemingly flawless. I feel as though this is an English class not a drama class, yet half the people do drama stuff as their english project, and now its forced. I'm responding by writing this since I know there's not much I can really do against someone with power, when I have no power.
