hey psych2go! i hope all your workers are doing fine. i think i might have a friend who is jealous from me, though i am the one who is always ignored and left on read in my friend group. should i confront them about it or should i keep it a secret? my friends are very dramatic so if i confronted them they would be like "thank you im jealous im stupid im disgusing im ugly" and they always do this to me and i'm not comfortable with it but if i unfriend them then i'll be lonely because they're the only friends i have. please help me! take your time to reply -love, tsuchii 💕

This is what I got from the video: 1. Your friend constantly competes with you. - You feel tension whenever you perform better than them - Friends should SUPPORT, not COMPETE 2. They undermine your success - Are they genuinely happy? - Jealous friends will downplay your achievements for their own satisfaction 3. They gossip about you - They try to ruin your reputation and put you in a negative light - They also exaggerate about themselves and make themselves look better - Again, this is all for their self-interest 4. They give false compliments - They pretend to be friends with you and give you false compliments 5. They're overly attached to you - Not ALL jealous people are angry or similar to the above four points - Someone might try to get your attention a lot, this may mean that they are envious of you and want to "steal" what you have 6. They're a copycat - They copy you because they're jealous of you

[@sundewlemon6619]

Someone can be secretly jealous, they don’t always be mean because of it.

[@devanshisharma6103]

@Reeet yes and mostly the jealous people are just struggling themselves. So, they just try to overcome their insecurities by taking inspiration from people in the life.

[@emilyhart7876]

I disagree. They may not be mean outwardly, but jealousy is *always* a cancer on a relationship. It causes inner resentment and a lack of healthy boundaries no matter how well intentioned the jealous person is. I have been both the jealous one and the person someone is jealous of. In both cases the situation was toxic.

[@emilyhart7876]

Reeet but is “trying to be nice” real friendship though? In a friendship, you should want your friend to succeed and your niceness should be organic, not because you are forcing it!

[@sundewlemon6619]

Emily Hart I agree with you, it is toxic, I wasn’t justifying jealousy, I was just wondering why does it have to be shown, sometimes in the relationship, the other person can have no idea they get that way due to the other person keeping it in and trying to suppress that emotion.

[@BadWolfSilence]

Emily Hart Forcing yourself to be nice when you don’t feel like being nice isn’t a bad thing, it’s being a good person when you don’t feel like it. I think what that person means is that someone can feel jealous without acting on it because they genuinely like their friend and don’t want to hurt them. You can have insecurities and inner wounds that can spur jealousy and choose to not take it out on others. That’s what I think they meant and I believe it too. :)

At first I thought I was exaggerating, but it turned out that she really is toxic and jealous. This video was entirely relatable, and it really breaks my heart.

[@shell7246]

I went to a party (I'm 13) and I was wearing makeup. Throughout the whole night this one "friend" would stare at me but I thought shes looking at my face/ makeup. As the night was drawing to an end all the girls were sitting in a circle talking, when my friend shouts out so everybody can hear "Bracefaceshellz you look like a catfish, usually you look so blick" (Blick is an insult to use against darkskins) I was confused to why she was calling me blick when she was several shades darker than me. I'm not a confrontational problem so I just smiled. This was a bashment party (Caribbean dancing). After I found out she was telling everybody how terrible my whining was and would make snide comments whenever I did, despite the fact I was being complimented about it. We're not friends anymore 🥴

People who publicly display their jealousy are a lot better than people who do it passively. Granted, both are bad, however the first one is so easy to spot before too much damage is done. I had a friend for 5 years until I decided to end the friendship because of jealousy, envy, manipulation, and literal emotional blackmail. It was so passive aggressive that only after 2 years of ending the friendship did the real truth hit me. Glad we’re rid of these kind of people, hope you found better friends

[@aliyam4023]

Jealous people always make me feel uncomfortable, there's a difference between admiring someone's accomplishments and being inspired by them and being jealous. Jealousy is the feeling that you wish you had what they had or that they didn't have what they have because you don't have it, there's a cynical feeling in it and I always worry about showing the happiness in my life to people who are jealous. Usually people who focus on jealousy are only pleased when those around them are doing worse that them, terrible mindset to have and not the kind of person people would want to be friends with. I've struggled a lot through life, like we all have, and I can't trust someone who only sees what I have and not how much I've struggled to get there or all the problems I have in my life which mean that I somewhat deserve that little bit of happiness in a different aspect of my life. Constantly looking to what other people have and not to what you have is a really negative mindset, we all have problems and we all have good things as well, no one's life is better than anyone else's, our life is the best for US because we're the only ones who have lived it and are accustomed to it. So please don't waste your time complaining about other people's 'happy' lives, go out their and make your own. I have no sympathy for those who say their lives are terrible and who spend time being jealous of others instead of investing time and energy into their own lives.

I feel like some of the points made arent as awful as they make it seem? 1. Competition isn't necessarily a bad thing. In lots of cases, it can be friendly and extremely motivating for both sides. Tension is natural in this setting. I dont think that just because you want to better yourself always means that youre jealous. I dont think its always so personal. 2. Although fake compliments arent the most desired, i feel like lots of us do that on a daily basis. Again, nothing personal, its just some such as myself, would rather avoid the trouble of possibly kicking someone down by telling them what i actually think? Especially if im not that close with them 3. I dont think being attached to someone is a crime. I guess i can see overly-attached as a potential for issues, but idk. I dont see how that directly correlates to jealousy. Or maybe im just a jealous person. Idk. But I dont feel negatively, nor aim for others to feel negatively through the points i mentioned above

[@ryumusu4173]

Fair point 👏

[@sezstamorae9004]

Your only competition is who you were yesterday, everyone’s definition of success is different, so imagine competing with someone who doesn’t know they’re in a competition to begin with.

if you are reading this, whoever you are, if somebody is trying to dirty your name it _only_ makes them the filthy ones and they *will not* succeed. today i have cut out a friend group like this... they were saying they were doing all the things they did because they were looking out for me and such, while i kept magically hearing non-existent facts about myself from unrelated people. i started getting strange looks and behaviours from people i didn't know a few weeks ago which kept getting worse and worse, and i swear, i swear, i wouldn't hurt a fly even if i had to. then, the person i trusted the most in that group, who had helped me so much in the past to recover from a painful event, initiated all the gossip. she shared confidential stuff with everyone. i am heartbroken, and the person i had thought loved me doesn't talk to me anymore because they stuffed him up with their lies about me. i feel like i was covered with honey and left in a forest. i feel betrayed, because i was betrayed. i felt liberated at first, then empty inside. if they attack me, i will not let them succeed. i will stay calm, collected, and gentle towards people. i will never resort to gossip the way they did. even sitting at that table every day, listening to them bashing every single person who stepped foot in the school, made me feel dirty. if you have read all this, thank you. if you have anything to say, i would be delighted to read it. ps: if you are the silent one in the friend group, i feel you... you are poetic and i send you love. we can do this because our gentility holds power over them.

i don't have any head-turning qualities about me whatsoever, but they still talk shit. i am loved by a few pure people with loving intentions and i think that is what they might be jealous of, as well as my romance life going lovingly (until they intervened) whereas they get rejected over and over.

She would constantly text me and want my attention, copy me and get upset if I didn't text her back within a couple of days. On top of it all she admitted to me that she liked me and pushed gifts on me constantly. I couldn't keep up with her constantly pushing her way into my life and as much as I believe that she is a good person at heart, I just couldn't find space to breath with her around. I had to walk away and that's what I did. I told her that I needed to walk away as firmly and politely as I could without backing down and giving in to her emotions. I'm not going to lie it was hard and it hurt, but putting your foot down and walking away will be the best thing you could ever do for yourself. I'm much happier and am ready to move forward with my life and I hope anyone else reading this will be ready too. All the best for anyone who is going through this now. And if anyone has anymore experience or advice to add please feel free to share your personal experience and how you dealt with it because everyone is different and no two situations are the same.

@@Casket_Cutie thank you for saying this. I will put a end to my unhealthy friendship with her and tell her. Knowing how she is like she would probably hate me and see me as a bad person. She might say things about me but I won't let her affect my life again thank you for commenting.

[@MoonShadow333]

I know it is a difficult situation. I have been there. Cutting them off sounds extreme but it is the only way. I would recommend you tho to prepare others about their possible reactions. Like, that they might say nasty things that are false or that you need a break. So when your friend tries to make a counterattack, the people around you won’t pay them much attention. It is hard but it is totally worth it! You will feel so much better

[@t-stacks5297]

This is terrifying. I had known a person like this for 8 years. This makes everything clear to me. Thankfully this person is no longer involved in my life. I only found out in college that she was talking behind my back and trying to turn my friends against me. I’m glad the friends I had believed me over her. I was lucky.

In addition to jealousy, #3 are characteristics of a narcissist. Narcissists spin malicious gossip and behavior as concern or trying to befriend the victim. They don't want to be exposed for who they really are.

Someone tried to ruin my life because they were jealous. Her name is Ava. Whenever I did something the slightest wrong to her, she would get mad at me for forever. She was always quick to forgive my other friends. I kept trying to be her friend until I realized that I did nothing wrong. It was her. My friend broke it to me that she was jealous and I finally found out. San, if your reading this, I owe you 10,000 dollars. Thank you

[@maddyG7414]

Envy is so sneaky and so much more pervasive than people say, because it lives in the shadows. Many people, myself included, feel ashamed of envy and jealousy. But if you’ve ever been in a friend group or relationship where it’s prominent you’ll know how bad it can get. I had a friendship where envy basically broke it. I got so fed up with the competitive antics, hot and cold behaviour, subtle cut downs and imitation of my life that I just said goodbye and didn’t look back 👋

[@catsarelovelyy]

I've had a best friend who I broke the relationship off a little while ago because, well, she just didn't treat me like a human. Then I realise that it's because she was jealous of me.. everything checked out, she said that she didn't have a crush, but the second I said that I did, she immediately starting "liking" the same guy. She would say that on all of my school projects that, anyone could reach that level of achieving. And of course, she talked about me behind my back. When I would leave for the bus at the end of the day, she would say 'Bye!' and then go to the other girls and say my name like "Holly This" "Holly That". So thanks for the information!

[@sooyeon_ah]

My ex best friend would do some of these things. When we were younger it wasn't as bad, but as we got older she got progressively worse. First it was copying me and eventually became trying to compete with me. She'd try to one-up me when it came to my hobbies, like trying to outdo my drawings or when playing sports. It was little petty things like this at first, but once we got to high school she got worse. It seemed like she just plain out didn't like me anymore. By this time we kind of drifted apart, but we still remained friends because we had some mutual friends. She became less genuine and felt two-faced. She was nice to my face, but I could tell she was gossiping about me behind my back. Whenever she started hanging out with the people I did, I started being treated differently, as if they knew something about me that I didn't. This happened EVERY time I made new friend groups. She'd start hanging out with us and eventually I'd have to make a new one. She was like a parasite lol funny how she could never keep friends of her own though. I finally cut her off and it felt so satisfying! I felt so much happier now that I don't have to deal with her toxic behavior anymore!

[@SirenUndine]

#5 and #6 sound more like their insecurities. They are signs, yes. They aren't necessarily bad, they're just behaviors that need boundaries. And they are obvious signs that the other person needs more balance in their life and possibly therapy to work on.

[@katara9]

I feel like there's another important perspective of jealousy too: A friend who suddenly slowly begins to exit out of your life, because they're jealous. I've done this once, because the jealousy showed me how slowly my own life was going, so I couldn't quite bear to communicate with one of my friends anymore. I plan to get better to where I can be close to them again, and to monitor my jealousy, cause I genuinely love them. But I think that's a type of jealousy that can quietly destroy relationships. Someone who is too hurt by their own jealous feelings or who doesn't want to project their jealousy onto their friend, and slowly slips away into the distance. Thank you so much for this video! This helped me finally understand a family member that's been at my throat for the past multiple years.

[@christinelee4780]

There have been two "colleagues" who were jealous of me, although they expressed it differently. One tried dressing like me (my style seriously didn't suit her). The other lied her way into a Phd candidacy after I was offered mine (she was kicked out due to lack of progress and discovery of her fraud). Jealousy holds you back, it gets you nowhere.

[@nishmalopez4917]

I mean, as someone who deals with jealousy like it's a disease I cant get rid of, i don't really do the whole talk behind their back and always be with them. I usually beat myself up about it and suffer in the distance. But yeah I heavily did the whole copycat thing and it sucks ass.

Nothing is necessarily wrong with jealousy. Jealousy is an emotion. It is the behavior that stems from that jealousy that can the problem. Whether you are the one with the jealousy, or someone towards you has the jealousy, it's the behavior that manifests is the problem. If you don't like it, put boundaries on it. If you are the one with jealousy and have problems putting boundaries on it, or not knowing what to do with it, talking with the therapist and working on those is what's going to help. And if people are setting boundaries on you , it's not necessarily a bad thing either. It just shows what they can and are willing to tolerate. Or how they are able to receive it. If it bothers you, talking with a professional can help. Either with insight, you're toleration levels, or changing your behaviors to better yourself and relationships.

My best friend led up to all of this. Thank you so much for this, now I know how jealous she is.

[@mochiminyoongles3245]

Even though we really love and support each other, between my best friend and I, there is an always existing level of jealousy. She seems to feel like I'm better at things than she is, I feel like her body is way better than mine. We are similar, we know that we're jealous of some people, but we try not to be. We both know that jealousy ruins some things and friendships, so we try to push it back and act like we're not jealous. That of course doesn't mean that we constantly do the things listed in this video, but I just notice that at many points throughout the days and weeks and months, she puts herself in front of me, trying to be in the spotlight as much as possible. But that's okay, it's quite annoying sometimes, but I can live with it since everybody has their flaws. I don't blame her, I understand what all of that is about and that she's just insecure. Not saying she's not good at the things she does, but she wasn't born with a great natural talent. (Many people don't have such a talent, which is totally fine, but those many people believe that everybody except them has that talent) She may not have that, but she works hard to achieve her goals and that's the big point, not any great talent. We both don't mind that little jealousy within our friendship, because it still works great and we're a good team! I love her and she loves me, it works out and we support each other, that's what counts! :)

[@thereallastoneleft1576]

It really helps when someone is finally able to GENUINELY accept the failure and imperfection of their lives and make it a point to be critical of their own way before someone else's. I literally do not ever look at someone with malicious envy or unperceptive hatred. I love to see my people succeeding in life and i SINCERELY love it when my close friends find themselves making progress in areas of life they never even thought possible. I wouldn't be able to be at peace if it was the other way around tho

But, if it's a game, to compete with your friends? I mean, I always have at least a friend who's also a kind of "rival" I don't think that it's particularly "toxic", because this competition makes me want to work even harder, and the same goes for him, so it's not a bad thing At least not when both are competing against each other!

I said that i didnt invite him because he acting weird and make me uncomfortable. He said he will join and i didnt let him. "Why i cant?!" Said him with high voice. I said "Its because you acting weird and make me uncomfortable i already said that. Also you dont even know how to ride bicycle so i dont want you to broke your legs on dirtbike".

[@Eri-Chanuu]

cut them off lmao

[@fwanki]

I'd like to add following: 1. Slowly reduce the time you spend with them (or just cut them off right away if u are able to) for example: you walk to school/work together? Quit that. Tell them u have a change in ur schedule which is why u can't walk with them at the usual time ; sitting together at lunch? Search for a new friend group or place where u can sit instead. U can even sit alone, if u are comfortable with that. And most importantly: don't spend time with them outside of the environment where u are forced to be in their vicinity. Your freetime is yours alone. Stop hanging out with them immediately! 2. Don't text back or become a dry texter. Ultimate Tip: tell them that u are not okay with the way they have been treating you lately and cut them off completely (if you are somewhat dependent on them because u sit next to them in class or smth like that, try to make up an plan how to become independent again, so you don't have to be afraid of being alone)

I have a “friend” we weren’t much of friends until 7th grade. But we’ve known each other since 1st. At first she would just eat the same things I do (I’m just extremely picky and eat basically the same 20 food choices every day) and I thought she just liked the same foods, and it wasn’t much of a deal. I would play with a lot of American girl dolls, and she started to play with them A LOT and I had a “family” of like 5 dolls, she could find literally any baby dolls she could get her hands on just so that she could make herself a “family” too. She copies my style. I wear a lot of leggings, Jean shorts, and graphic t-shirts. She started to wear all that too. I went to clares (an accessory store with earrings, bracelets, hair things etc) and she went there too. I loved subway, Wendy’s and chick fil a, she started to love it too. I loved a tv show called icarly, guess what? She started to love it too. I loved loved loved to listen to Harry styles, and one direction, now she is obsessed. She even copies my jokes. I like to paint my nails and now so does she. I like to wear matching hand sanitizer and perfume. She matches them too. She is constantly texting me and bugging me to see her.I could go on and on but these were the most annoying. And now, she thinks I’m her bestie and I really am not trying to be mean but I just don’t like her that much.

[@elspethcoogan1499]

I have experienced jealousy from a so-called friend (more like a frenemy) whose competitiveness with me was far more subtle and insidious than this video shows. Jealous friends don’t always manifest their feelings but can sometimes harbour them very adeptly, and which 'leak out'' in ways that can slip by one if not attuned to the signs. Because I was her BFF she showered me with compliments and praised my “amazing” qualities as a person. But when the friendship was tested in times of stress her true colours were often revealed. I spent most of our relationship walking on eggshells. She is no longer my friend; a huge relief.
