Jealous of new friend? (And I'm a boy?)?
Ok so I'm 16, just started sixth form in the UK (year 12 or whatever the same is in he US) and we have new people coming at this year. This is also he only year besides the next year (year 13) that has girls, but I'll come to that later. Almost immediately off the bat I made a new friend because we were on the same level of knowledge in maths (I've advanced past my class). He's a year older but he came from another country so he's in my year, but it also means he knows most of everything in this year already, so he's already clever at pretty much everything. He's not overly muscly or anything, but he's slim. Somehow he also acts like he's been friends with the girls for years and so do they, even though we've both only known them for 3 weeks (and I know that for sure). The thing that bugs me the most is he's one of the nicest guys I've ever known. Literally. He is a ridiculously kind person. I'm jealous. VERY jealous. Like envy-life jealous. What can I do? Its absolutely killing me
Is my friend jealous of me?????
If you are friends then you have to bring this to her attention. No matter what if you guys are truly friends then there is no reason that you or she should be jealous of each other. Friends congratulate, support, and our honest with one another if you find that this is not the case with the two of you then maybe you should not be friends let alone in each others company. I had a friend that was jealous of me and I left her alone. For the first 1 month I was said being without her company however I did not miss the negativity and the malicious things she would sometimes do to me. So talk to her and if you can't reach her then you have to figure out where to go from there. We can only advise you on the situation but oh so much. She is the only one to whom you should be asking or telling this too so do so. If she is your friend let her rectify the situation first and if she fails to do so then crucify her. Goo Luck! Charlie
My friend is jealous of me?
i know what you mean, and don't worry...you don't sound pathetic. personally, i don't believe anything anyone says (unless if it's my parents, siblings or really really close friends) until i think it over myself. let's pretend i am you, and your friend comes up to me and says "i talked to so and so. he likes you but he's into outgoing girls and i think you're too quiet." first, do an attitude check? ask yourself, "am i really quiet?" if the answer is truly a no, then she's wrong...be honest with yourself! :) if the answer is a yes, and YOU want to change it for YOURSELF (as opposed to changing yourself for a guy), then change. if the answer is still a yes, and you don't want to change and you're happy with yourself, don't change and don't be easily persuaded by others. i would personally not be her friend anymore. if she ever says "but I don't know, it probably won't work out..", then say back "why wouldn't it work out? what makes you think that?" since you said in your question that you usually ignore the last part, this would probably surprise her and throw her off. but by the way you write, i would break your friendship off.
Am i jealous of my friend?
I would say you are jealous of your friend but it is more from disappointment than from the green eyed monster kind of jealousy. Getting rewarded for accomplishments can come with a price, peoples expectations become higher which can lead to disappointment by the "teachers". Look at athletes or movie stars, they ride the high for a while with pats on the back, interviews with the press, paparazzi chasing them taking pictures and then whamo! one bad game or movie and people start saying oh so and so is such a bad athlete or can't act I don't know why anybody thinks they are any good and suddenly those interviews and pictures turn around and slam the person that was on the top of the heap 5 minutes ago. You will realize life is not a competition (most of the time) but a series of events and the only person you need to impress is yourself (and maybe your parents;o). It is nice to be recognized every once in a while but living up to those expectations can take a toll on a person. You say "she's not as perfect and nice as all the teachers think she is, she acts sooo fake in front of the teachers" maybe the fakness is her way of living up to the expectations they have come to expect and with her friends she let's the facade down and it comes across as being a total b***h. It is hard to not be envoius but that will come with experience. Be proud of yourself and remember when she does win stuff to truly be happy for her as you would hope she would be if and when you get recognized or win something.
I'm jealous of my best friend?
I know how you feel:( I always feel inferior when I'm around pretty people and I can't explain how envious I am when boys flock to them and they are able to make great conversations unlike me, the convo killer. It's great to have a guy tease you too, right? You would feel happy, loved and given attention and might even enjoy it. You mentioned that she has pretty eyes. This must mean it is the most prominent and eye-catching feature of hers. So why dong YOU find what's your best feature, be it face or body and emphasize and flaunt it? You could try pretending to be confident. Even when people put you down, laugh it off or play along with them. If confidence spent come naturally, fake it until it becomes a part of you that no one can take away. Make sure you dress well, smell nice, look nice. Some key points: hair, clothes, shoes, accessories, make up, nails, feet, neck. Look at lookbook.nu to see how others work their style and get some inspiration. You could ask to study with her so she could help you with your work too, or you could spend some time at home looking through your work at home. I had a school talk once and my school's councillor said that by looking through your all your work at least once everyday, you will be able to remember 75% of it even after a month. Be nice to everyone. Do some volunteer work, this might expand your 'thinking' and you will become nicer. When you are happy in life, you will be nice. Treat others the way you want them you treat you. Try talking to her about your crush. And tell her that you are serious about him and want her help. After all, she's your best friend and she might feel hurt that you didn't tell her. Good luck my dear:) and remember, YOU ARE PRETTY AND NO ONE CAN TAKE THAT AWAY FROM YOU. IT IS ONLY YOU WHO ALLOWS THEM TO. AND YOU CAN CHOOSE NOT TO. I wish you all the best with your crush too!! Sorry if it's too long. And if it's any consolation, I'm trying my best right now to bring out the best in me too:)
Is my best friend jealous of me?
She has this really annoying habit of befriending and getting super nice with all the guys who like me but I don't like back or my exes. She will actually spam their walls and talk to them on chat constantly but ignore me completely. It's like she has this desperate need to be liked by everyone. I've accepted that about her. But then she happens to be dating this guy who I kissed in front of her before they dated. (It was a lame dare). Now they are both in different countries and in a long distance relationship. I'm studying in the same place with her boyfriend. They are loyal to each other. But she just acts super bitchy to me sometimes. Like there were these comments on facebook on her album. Someone mentioned how pretty I am. Then I checked the pictures again and the comments were deleted =/ She is 24x7 on skype with her boyfriend but when I tell her to come on skype she'll make an excuse and say it's not working (it's not like I constantly ask her, but once in a blue moon, I do.). But with everybody else, she'll be the first in line to do anything for them. I don't like her boyfriend and I don't get why she's so insecure. Should I just stop treating her like my best friend? I'm so sick of her being so bitchy. When I do tell her how I feel, she calls me "needy" and makes me look like I'm super obsessed which I'm not =/ . She tries to turn everything around and make it about her or make me look bad.
