What's the difference between jealousy and envy?

[@yogiperogy]

A very articulate, intelligent young man who makes his points clearly.

[@johnmeye]

Watched 8 KZbins to figure out the difference; you’re the One who nailed it

[@Stucrompton1]

agree fully

[@MahmoudAlzaibaqCC]

we need more short and informative videos like this one, now I learned what envy means. thank you

[@brianlaforge9872]

For sure

[@brianlaforge9872]

I applaud this gentleman. Very articulate, enlightening and explicit.. I guess this just wonderful

[@alexishill3342]

This is the best explanation I've heard. You've made it so clear. Thank you!

[@tamasmihaly1]

One small caveat. Jealousy involves two people plus another person, place, or thing; not necessarily a third person. Lots of spouses, for instance, are jealous of their partner being apparently more invested in a hobby than they are with them. I think it's rooted in possessiveness and a need to be seen as being of paramount importance to the jealous party.

Right its fear of lost of what you have or had

[@salsabilahmedshrestho960]

sounds like someone has personal issues

[@natalyawoop4263]

It doesn't sound like a personal issue, it sounds like they were fleshing out the definition

I think jealousy stems from a good intent of wanting to be better and level up in life. Envy is an evil way of wanting what others have only to yourself at the expense of the other person losing it. It’s like a sport player if you are jealous you have good sportsmanship if you are operating from the spirit of envy towards others you are a toxic loser who doesn’t accept defeat in order to progress and get better in life you have to fail and fall many times but it’s up to you if you want to rise up and try again. Not with a narcissist through because their games is not fair.

Thank you very much

[@Hell_Kell]

Very well said!

[@frency5671]

A lot of people use jealousy instead of envy, and when I tell them, I even get insulted. XD well, they can keep being ignorant and prsumptuous.

Thank you for helping me with an argument 😂

[@topmetalrockbandsfullmetal1073]

See I thought the difference between jealousy and envy was positive and negative emotions and thoughts .. i thought envy was positive and jealousy was negative.. So what would be envying somebody in a positive way as in you look up to them they inspire you they're motivating you to set goals to reach that level of hierarchy or work harder to get what other said person has that they desired

[@blackvikingthrone]

Reminds me of an ex or 2.

[@rafaelcisneros562]

Jealousy is a good thing, Envy is a sin

[@anulan18]

I will give an example of situation, - my friends are on holiday in beautiful place, can I send a message to them " I'm jealous " or better would be " I'm envious"?

[@skurinski]

envious of course. You cant be jealous of something, just someone

[@JollyOliW]

@@skurinski you can't be jealous of something you don't have

[@Yestopeace365]

Neither, it’s your friend, be happy for them 😀

[@natalyawoop4263]

Better to tell them you're inspired by them.
