Is it normal that women waste time comparing themselves to other women?

Not all women are like this. I've only noticed this with other women who are my age in my area I live in.

They'll get so upset and jealous that their female friends, female coworkers, or female family members have some things they don't.

These somethings are stupid things like:
- the other woman owning a house and or car while she don't
- the other woman being prettier and more flirted with than her
- the other woman having a better body or nicer hair
- the other woman having a successful marriage while she doesn't
- the other woman having better job earnings
- the other woman being more popular
- the other woman doesn't have or want kids(this last one is weird because they'll say shit like "she only has more money because her selfish ass didn't sacrifice like I did" or "it's a woman's purpose to have kids, why is she not doing it?"

Funny thing is that the women that have nicer things than them worked TWICE as hard as they did to achieve it all. They didn't let things like mental issues, financial ruin, and other tragedies get in the way like the jealous women did. But that doesn't matter to these jealous types. All that matters is that the fact that they have better stuff means that they must've cheated in some way, so they'll speculate and make up rumors in order to try to bring the more successful woman down. It never works though, so I don't get why they do this. One would think that they would've grown out of this behavior by 22. Also, they never get this way with men. Just other women.

Is this normal?

    They should worry about themselves to be rather completely honest and to stop being jealous of each other.

    • They never do. Most women I've seen that display their behaviors eventually wind up broke, divorced, friendless, and wonder why no one wants to hang out with their negative asses.

    I don’t think comparing and being jealous is unique to women. Women probably get more jealous about other girls being better looking than them than guys do. But everyone is jealous of people that are better than them.

    • Idk. I never noticed my male family members, friends, or coworkers do this. Just the women. The men dont get all whiny and emotional like the women do. They seem to work much harder than the women and are happy for others success.

        They still do. You've never heard a dude bitching about how much better than others they are cause they work 80 hours a week or have a fancy car?

        Kids are brought up to want to "win" by doing better than other people. This is incredibly toxic because comparing yourself to other people is never going to make you happy, ever. Somebody will always have a better car bigger house and hotter spouse.

    That's how women are. You'd better get used to that.
    But I don't like it though.

    • I wish I knew why. They always prioritize petty emotional nonsese instead of doing anything useful to get ahead in life.

    I don't care for jealous people in general. I have some luxuries in life that I didn't work hard for, but so what? I'm grateful for what I have, and I consider myself blessed, so anyone who has a problem with it is someone I don't want to know.

    I used to know a couple of very jealous women, one of them was super gossipy, she was about as two faced as a coin, and the other was just jealous. They were a couple of real harpies!
