I would have to say jealousy is one of those feelings you really can’t avoid. Everyone has it and it always seems to shows its face when you least expect it. For all of 2015 I have just been living life, being happy and exploring new things. Ultimately I have been happy with no issues but people hate to see you happy if they aren’t happy. Jealousy is a hell of a drug and God don’t like ugly. Not saying jealousy is a bad thing but too much of it can make you come off as a really bad person.
I really don’t like posting my life on social media but sometimes I slip up and post it. People see what I am doing and always have something negative to say. These are the people I Ignore. When someone hits you with the “how was your lil trip?” or “how is your lil friend doing” you already know they are bitter, jealous and pissed. Anyone that hits you with the “lil” in between something is mad at your life. This is not up for debate. The other thing is when people say “why you ain’t take me with you? You would have had a lot more fun if I came.” I heard this about 8 times this year, I didn’t invite you for a reason.
I personally think that everyone gets jealous no matter if you’re in a friendship or relationship. Not saying if you’re in a relationship you go out and flirt with someone but the “thought” that you are gets your significant other jealous. Makes them try a lot harder to keep your attention. We look on someone’s social media feed and see comments from the opposite sex like, “wtf are they cheating on me” or “is that someone they use to talk to?” It’s always something not so serious but it happens, especially if you start over thinking things. Sometimes in friendships people get jealous if you invite one person out over the other person. They see pictures online or they hear that you had a great time with the other person and not them, so they get mad. It happens, life happens you just have to not let it get to you.
Jealousy is something that happens in all of us, we are human. To let it consume you and make you a bitter person is not good. Take a step back, catch your life before jealousy grabs a hold of you and never let’s you go.
