I am usually very happy and satisfied with my life, but latelly I have been a little jealous of my sister.
She is three years younger than me and she is so much more well of money wise than me.
It wouldn't be that way if she hadn't of met her 34 year old rich boyfriend though.
He owns his own construction company, and my husband works at a factory.
Her boyfriend makes much more money, and I sometimes get jealous because I feel I should be doing much better, I am older then her.
But then, my husband points out the fact that her boyfriend is actually the one with the money, not her, and he is much older then we are, by ten years!
He says that in ten years, we will also be doing very well like him.
My husband has a great way of cheering me up:)
My question is, are you ever jealous of someone?
If so, who?
And why? For what reason are jealous?

I am only jealous if my husband will look to another sexy women coz i know that i am no longer the sexiest woman he ever had.
But I know he loves me so much coz he married me and we have three kids. One thing i like is that he is not a involved with another woman during our marriage. And he said that I am the woman he wants to be with for the rest of his life.
Though we're not rich we are very much happy and contented of what we have right now.

The only time I can recall being jealous of someone was in school. But, the jealousness that I felt really made me get serious and thus must be the reason I am where I am at today in life. In other words, the jealousness lead to healthy competition b/w us to see who could get the best grades. Needless to say, it was one of the reasons for my success in college......and the reason for my success now.

Yes I have been jealous for someone. It was my school days when we were two toppers in class. We always used to think about to be the first in result. But that was fluctuating. One year I used to be first, another year she used to be first in class. Though we used to share our study. Now I jealous when someone who have joined with me in company and get promotion before me just because he loves not to work hard but spends time in buttering. In this way he gets promotion sooner. This frushtrates me. I do believe in hard work always. Hard working teaches us many things in advance. We be firm for future. We get advantages in future time. I believe that hard work is always rewarded, sooner or later. These are the few things which causes jealousness in me.

Your sister also must having the jealous feeling because her husband is older than your husband. Your husband is perfect, even he can rise to that level when he is 34. I suggest you not to feel jealous, because it is harmful to health.
