DEALING WITH JEALOUS AND COMPETITIVE FRIENDS!

Dealing with jealous friends can be challenging. It's so important to recognize that jealousy often stems from personal insecurities and feelings of inadequacy. It’s also very important to not retaliate and become defensive when this person does that typical behavior that frustrates you.

This relationship will teach you the importance of having high standards and boundaries! Let's get into today's video...

If your friends are jealous and competitive with you, RUN don’t walk away!!!

People who ‘compete’ with you consistently are not your friends- get rid of them.

I learned to just not deal with them anymore and cut them off. It's too draining and stressful. The One upping, Jealously, Envy, mimic/copying me, Competition when your not even in competition with them, cutting me off while I am talking, gossip, excluding me, and the cattiness gets old.

the hardest thing for me in recovering from depression was dealing with people who didn't like the energetic and successful new me. I learnt you can't tell people anything

After having friends like this in past, I immediately distance from people like this. They’re liabilities and they will sabotage and obstruct whenever they get the opportunity. You have to grieve thinking they were a better, more mature person and demote them in your life. In my experience, if you bring up aspects of their behavior they’ll just blow up at you. I feel like people never realize they’re being a pathetic brat until they figure it out on their own.

Relationships are exhausting, friends, family, spouses etc. they all take so much work. I really appreciate my alone time the older I get. ☺️

This was starting to creep me out. I gotta rid of everybody. I have one friend. I can’t take the jealousy, envy, passive aggressiveness, not being happy for me. Everyone has to GO!

I just ended a friendship with a jealous "friend". She would make so many passive aggressive comments, try to compete with me, downplay my success or nice things that happen to me. So i told her that i noticed she was being competitive. Started drifting away. And now shes out of my life. These people are toxic. Im glad shes no longer my friend.

Everytime things are going well in my relationship and i share it with this person thats very closely related to me, their energy instantly drops, but when i share about someting thats not going right, you can literally see them getting pumped up and having so much to say about the issue. And this has been with all my relationships so far. So ive decided to become private about any progress in my life.

[darialo]

That’s exactly what happens! I did that with my sister, I dimmed my light so she wasn’t angry at me. What a waste of my time, empathy, and years.

[courtneygillespie]

My empathy and sensitivity is all I'm going to do whatever I can fly higher without holding me back.

[jamesbishop]

Jealousy stems from believing that you can't have what they have.

[jjwashere-qoow]

It never ends from my experience with a "friend" of 55 years; she's made absolutely everything a competition including our grandchildren (hers are superior of course); jealousy and envy are always there and I'm relieved to live far away with minimal contact now. Never trust someone who secretly hates you (call a thing a thing) by keeping your distance or completely removing them from your life!

[sushiilulou]

its just so sad 😢 realizing I have no real friends 😢 they literally want me down

[thelaziestbee]

Jealousy and competition is the highest form of flattery 😅

[clincpb]

I should show this video to many of my female colleagues but they are so narcissistic they won't question their insecurities,

[bleri]

Jealous people can really destroy your life when you are not aware or you don’t know how to handle the situation these kind of people are sick and never give up .Many times they are manipulated by someone else that hates you a narcissist so the best thing you can do is walk away as soon as possible

[kaykaymcgee]

I experienced a falling out with a childhood friend. She was jealous and envious (of course she denied). I am mourning this friendship and I am learning how to navigate my anger from the betrayal.

[BigL]

Wow, story of my life. My relatives and friends have been jealous of me for a while. I made myself to make them feel good. I could never share, and they could never be happy for me.

When an individual that meets you but they are not in your life, and continues to be jelouse, gossip, spread lies and rumors even goes as far as interferes in your job, is beyond insecure. They have a mental illness that can become dangerous. You must be aware of how jelouse a person becomes.
