I am jealous of my little sister Sydnee because she is a very talented hockey player and makes me feel slow. It makes me sad but also motivates me to work harder and try to get better. Now we are able to push each other and grow our skills together.

I got jealous of a whole class because they were really good at math. I'm really bad at math and it further crushed what little self esteem I had in math into the ground. I thought about how nice it would be to be them since they were good at math. Ultimately I did nothing, and I continued to be bad at math, and they continued to be good at it.

I agree that math is hard and is easy to be bad at.

I get jealous of my brother sometimes because he is the perfect child and my parents like him more than me. It makes me feel sad but I accepted the fact and moved on. I no longer get jealous of him.

Even though you may not be perfect in your parents eyes, you are perfect to me.

I was really jealous when my brother got out of chores for doing nothing while i was doing something which i had to stop and start doing chores. This made me mad and jealous when he got out of it. I just cleaned and did nothing about it this really didn't solve anything

That is very unfair. I'm sorry you had to go through that terrible experience.

My sophmore year I was jealous of Blazen Burgess during basketball season. I just moved here from Firth and Salmon got a new coach with Mr. Burgess. I wasn't as good as Blazen so I didn't need to start but he also played every single minute and I was on the bench for a whole season. How I got over this was I started to use him as a mentor and I use what I learned from being patient that year to basketball now.

I was jealous when all the people at track got to leave districts without a problem to go to Lagoon while I had a hard time with the coaches because they wouldn't let me leave. It made me feel bad and put me in a bad mood. My dad ended up telling me to get my stuff and we ended up just leaving, so yeah it solved the problem.

I've been jealous of my brother because I would buy expensive items such as air-pod pros with my hard earned money and that Christmas my brother would get air-pod pros from my parents. Whenever I seem to buy something expensive my brother will get one as a gift. It usually makes me very frustrated. I have tried telling my parents but they just blow me off about it.

I get jealous when I see couples walking the school because it reminds me that I am alone. I don't really do anything about it because I know that its not my time for a long lasting relationship. since the problem is still ongoing the answer is unknown
