How Do I Stop Being So Jealous Of My Sisters?
I'm 14 and a biological boy but I'm really a girl on the inside (transsexual, M2F). I have no brothers but I have 2 sisters. Nobody knows about me being transgender in my family so I can't really show it much. My problem is that I get really jealous of my two sisters because of the things they get to do, they way they get to act, but mostly the way they look and the clothes they get to wear. I just can't take watching them 24/7 living their lives the way I wish I could live mine. How can I stop being so jealous of them?
How can I stop being jealous of my own sister !?
I don't know why but I'm jealous of my own little sister! She's 4 years younger than I am. When we go to a relative's house, they tell my mom your daughter (my sister) looks like she's going to have one hell of a body in the future. I don't know why they say that. My sister's body doesn't match her age. She looks older and in the future she will probably look older than I am. She has bigger boobs than I do and I wish I had some! I don't have any and it sucks because my classmates sometimes make fun of me for that. Today my mom noticed that I have small boobs and she was like "you have small boobs unlike your sister" with a shocked face. Her body is fine. She has a big belly and a bigger waist than I do and her food is always unhealthy. The last thing she thinks about is taking care of her body. Me on the other hand really care. I ALWAYS eat healthy unlike my family and I exercise. I have abs, a few muscle on my arm and I think I have a petite body than my sis which I don't really like and in the future people might think I'm younger than she is. I really don't want to compare myself to my sister. I hate that! I do get compliments like your beautiful and I hate it when people say you're a lot prettier than your sis. I go like well, she's pretty too because I just hate it when they compare us. My sister is jealous of me too because I always get what I want and it's not fair because I ask my parents when she doesn't. How can I stop being jealous of her?
How can i stop being so jealous of my older sister?
Two things are happening: You think too much of her and too little of yourself. What she is and who she is should be irrelevant to your happiness. The real problems is your discontentment with yourself. Take control of your thinking, learn to see good things in yourself. Write down all the kind things people have done and said to you and re-read them when you're discouraged. If there is something about yourself you don't like, work to change it or conquer it's affect on your happiness by changing how you think about it. Don't discount yourself - that is to say you are worth less than your real value. Learn what thoughts reoccur and bring you down and learn ways to avoid these thoughts or how not to be beaten by them when you find yourself thinking them. If you like reading, you can find many books on healthy thinking, psychology, learned optimism... things like that.
Jealous of my sister's success?
It's a complicated situation but in brief words; I'm an 18 year old student, have an older brother and older sister. My sister's in her last years of studying philosophy and languages but since a few years she's together with a guy that's in a very successful Swedish band that's starting to grow to the top (about 200 000 facebook likes). She's very good in english as am I (we're from Belgium) so they asked her to come up with good lyrics for their newest songs, which she successfully managed to do. Later on she started showing me the songs with her lyrics and I feel she's getting a little 'lifted' and arrogant about her work being fairly good. I can't help but feel a bit jealous instead of happy for her. It's just because she was lucky getting a boyfriend in a big band that she got the chance thrown on her lap for getting involved in their music stuff and although she doesn't show it she might get a lot of money from writing these lyrics. I feel terrible for being so shallow and jealous, because I see myself as a potential person too, and I feel I could reach success as easily as her if only I got the chances she got by luck. Now I'm confused whether to leave myself out of the whole thing or try to participate in her tasks and making some opportunities myself by helping her writing lyrics, because she suggested it once. It all gets a little bit more painful because I study history, and I like what I do but I always had that strange feeling I could get more out of my life
How do you get over being jealous of your sister in law after being in the family for 6 years?
I 've always been jealous of my sister in law ever since I first became part of my husbands family. My sister in law has everything you could ever imagine fancy cars, three children, designer clothes, 1.5 million dollar homes to live in and most importantly a closer bond with her husbands family because she has known them alot longer than me and that she has picked the same people who were in her wedding party to be the godparents to her three children and not me because I do not have a blood relationship with the kids at all. My husband and I chose her and her husband to be our last childs godparent and every time she calls us on the phone she never wants to talk to me its always either to her two neices (my daughters) or her brother my husband. So my question to you the readers is how do I stop being so jealous of her and everything she has that I don't and also how do I grow a closer bond with her like she has with her other sisters in laws on her husbands side of the family?
I'm jealous of my sisters lifestyle?
My sister is 25 & I'm 28. & I've finally came to terms that I'm jealous of her life. She went to college and I didn't because I was going to take over the family business (restaurant) which I've been doing fine, I like being in my home town & it pays bills however I just went to visit my sister who lives in the burbs in the city & her kids & I'm jealous. One, her 3 kids are angels, I don't have any children but hers are very desirable. Two, her husband, he treats her like an absolute queen, my husband of longer length than hers doesn't do half of what my sisters husband does more her. Three, they live in a nice house with nice things, I live in the house that we grew up in. I figure the first thing I can do is go to college. I feel liked brat and bit of a *****, what can I do ?
