Do you compare yourself with your friends?

you are right... we are unique, but sometimes for us to learn and to know whats wrong about us, we need to compare our self, i admitted it, sometimes am comparing myself just to know about something not to get envy or something its just to accept the face the fact and my wrong, its easy for me as a human if i can see example to know my wrong, but not too much, just to analyze something.

I don't really compare myself to my friends but sometimes I think they have it all perfect even though I know nobody really does.

I never compare myself with other friends as i think that they live a very different life style to me and i think thaqt we all have alot of different things that we all like doing ready for our futures.I have a few friends that are not married aswell as do not haqve children and they have no money,then there are the friends that are always out and about and live a happier life,but have not paid their bills.I see my friends as friends and would not want to compare myself with them.

i dont think it`s not urgent to always compare ourself to others. maybe if only once or twice to make that we can do which someone can do.but if we always any time to compare it, iam doubt that it good for our mentality. i believe thats not good to always compare ourself and other. i always believe in our wisely words, just be your self

Nope. I'm the same as you when it comes to comparing myself with people in general. I have my weaknesses and strengths, and they have their weaknesses and strengths. We are all different from one another, so comparing ourselves is ridiculous because all it does is highlight our weaknesses and makes us feel inferior.

I don't really like to compare but sometimes I felt jealous on some point and just hide my feelings of insecurity with them. I knew it's bad and I'm trying to change it and just being myself. I love my friends so much and hope they we're true and real friends for me forever...

I guess its natural to sometimes compare your status amongst the peers you've been with always or most of the time, especially your friends. I don't see anything wrong with trying to catch up with their success, as long as you don't thread over any of their boundaries, it will in fact make you a better person, that's if you truly know what you go for not just try to be somebody you aren't. There are things in life that depresses me, and one of them is my current status in life as compared to most of my batch mates, but I always say to myself that there are worse things that could happen but should be thankful for for I'm not in one of them and that there are always better sides of anything.

Sometimes I feel that comparing myself to my friend but that was happened only if I'm depressed and feeling of becoming a loser. I don't like this thing to happen but sometimes I feel this way and it makes sad. Anyway it was just a feelings. Well after this scenario in life I feel happy again and I say thanks to all my friends. Whatever my friends has it's okay and fine with me and what I have more than my friends I kept silent and never to compare to my friends. Thanks and have a nice day!

Personally,I think this is inevitable. How can we ever stop ourselves form comparing? We are human beings after all. We are affected by the people around. Comparing ourselves itself is not bad. What we do after and what we feel after, do we feel inferior? Do we take things to catch up? And I mean taking steps to catch up with them no matter how and no matter what we do, just to keep up? Its up to us how we handle this. Comparing can be constructive. We do things to be able to improve ourselves, but also we should accept things that we cannot control, that no matter waht we do, we are just us and we will never be like them. We can improve a little. We can be a better person like them. But being realistic and being accepting of things we cannot do also.

I really don't compare myself with my friends but just having some what if's within me if i am at their footsteps. But what i will think behind my back there's really a reason or a purpose that what i have achieved is not as high as they are. But what is really a good thing is you are satisfied and contented with the life you are having and enjoying it to the fullest.

Nope. I acknowledge my friends' achievements and I am truly happy for them. I do not need to catch up with them nor they catch up with me. Status does not matter to me. We are all human beings and should be treated fairly under the law. I believe that it only I that can make myself feel inferior.

It depends. usually i just compare myself with my same age friends. if they are a lot older than me I would not compare with them. However I would think if I can reach their achivement when i am in their ages. I don't know it's good or not, but I think it's part of human nature. it can give me motivation in life. they are kind of my direction and target. you don'y need feel pressure. every one has different life and luck. so you just do your best. comparisation with your friend is just a way to help you wide world.

Different people have different pursues and different realm, and stand on different sides to consider anything, it is hard to define the happiness and success for everyone. To be precise, there is no comparability between different people. If let me make good choice, I will exert myself to enjoy life all the time regardless of other bored things.

No........ I never compared me with my friends..........

I don't really like to compare myself coz I know that's bad. Though sometimes, I kinda feel like "They're in this status already and I'm still here, etc, etc". Then I start telling myself that I excel in other fields too. In my own pace, I will probably where they are. And sometimes I tell myself, I'm really not in their circle---then I remember that I'm happy with what I have and who I am.

I think most humans do compared.. Especially those frenz whom are much weaker than us in studies, and yet now they are doing far better than us in life?? We will tend to feel unfair, and also start to ask ourself what's wrong.. haha =D THere will be some inferior complexity in us, but as long as we can get over it fast, we will be good.. Because nothing in life last forever.. And if we are contented with the way life is, why bother to change or even risk it?? hehe

What status in life? What achievements? What have they've been doing? Where they have gone? Be happy with what you have, where you have gone, and what you are doing right now. It is but natural to have that feeling but think. You are different. You are unique. One of a kind star from the vastness of the universe. Be different.

I did. But I always tell me that everyone has his own life. Some is rich, some is poor, some is intelligent and some is average. So I gradually don't really care about it. No matter what life you are living, you will have this or that difficult. So everyone is unique.

apparently yeah, i do compare myself with my friends.... i'm the kind of person who hasn't got that much in life and every time i see my friends it always comes into my mind ... why am i not like that or i wanna be like that ... i don't know how to put it but maybe i'm just being insecure or what... maybe it's like that ehehe but i always keep our friendship in tact -^^-

oh!Yes,I do. I think it's a good way to stimulate myself. I always do that when I was unhappy,I compare myself with my friend who are always happy. Why she always keep herself in good mood and what's wrong with me? It's good for us that compare ourselves with our friends,right?
