I want to know if it is wrong to resent your friends and family for having a
better life than you?
I know that everyone has problems, but some people have a lot more problems then
others. I tend to get annoyed with people that think problems like not having a
boyfriend/girlfriend or breaking up with their partner is a huge problem. Or
other problems like not looking perfect or not having lots of money, or not
having the perfect job.
I know that those problems seem huge to them, and it really hurts them. I am not
trying to play that down. I just get upset because compared to the problems that
I have those are nothing to me. I know that everyone thinks their problems are
the worst and that is probably what you are thinking of me. But honestly don't
you get angry with people who have a pretty great life and they complain that it
sucks?
Everyone gets angry once in a while. Yea people do get all upset when they don't
have their way, its the way of life. I learned to live with it because i just
ignore it most of the time.

Yea they do complain, its because they can't see what they have.
Alot of people might envy them because of it, but when they loose it, they do
complain, but then in a few days they'll get over it...maybe.
I've been around people like that, and when they have a problem, they make
everyone suffer with them, they talk about it becasue they want attention and
they want people to pitty them.
I learned to like my life since i don't need anymore then what i have
You might get upset about because their problems are nothing compared to
yours.
However you being upset over that might mean nothing to a homeless man on the
street who lost every thing because of some kind of misfortune, or a child in
africa who doesn't even have clean water or food to eat.
Being upset about things you don't have is natural. Better to channel your
energy into fixing those problems.
I think a bit of complaining is probably good for you. Better to get it out than
keep it all pent up. Theres just limits to expressing yourself and being just a
general whinger.
simple. if they're complaining about small, petty stuff, ignore it beacuse they
can't always have their way. when u think that their problems is nothing
compared 2 yours, they're also thinking that you're the one complaining about
small stuff. anyway, who doesn't get upset when something like that happens? i
have that problem too but i don't bother telling anyone. try 2 focus on ways of
overcoming it because afterwards, it'll go away and u won't have 2 worry about
that again.
Do I resent friends or family for having a better life? Nope, can't say I do,
none of them have the kind of life I want. Maybe because they're interests are
far different from my own.
Meh, it's up to one's values and their expections on life. People get jealous
because money is so important in society. They get lonely from not having a
girlfriend/boyfriend. This is why they get angry, and how they bring out their
true feelings wrong. That's all about being human, I wouldn't let any of their
crap get to you, think what you want, don't be influenced by senseless jealousy,
depression and anger.
I knw alot of pple is suffering then i am, i understand i am more lucky then
someone who live horrible life but i still complain to myself, but this is
human, we just think it`s not enough... Now you are also complaining how your
life suck, how pple complain when they are very fortunate, but look it at
another view, not all pple think the same way, everyone have their own problem,
to you maybe it seem to be a small problem bt to other people this is what
matters most in their life, pple live a different life... For a patient what
matters most if their health, they complain and you think it`s ok, on the other
hand, if they does not have this illness, they might be somewhere else
complaining abt other stuff... When pple grow older and become mature, these
stuff will not matters anymore and they will change their complaining target, we
knw what you mean, but human just dun satisfied, maybe this is how pple
encourage themself to be better...
naturally you always will feel envy for someone who seems to have more than you,
especially if they are someone close to you. Its kind of funny that that people
that you care for most are the ones that you resent the most when they outdo
you. But just remember eveyone has there own set of problems. even if you fel
envy which is natural try to aviod resentment as in the end the bond you have
with those people is more important that pride.

Every one complains about what they don't have.

I'm telling you people:
Be content with what you have
Rejoice in the way things are
When you realize that nothing is lacking
The whole world belongs to you
