I'm very competitive by nature but resenting someone who's better than you? I voted not normal. I know this is sadly so incredibly common, but you should try to rationalize. See the stupidity in resenting someone just cause they're smarter than you.
I come across tons of smarter/better people than me, I get that competitive urge to be better, but simultaneously I admire and respect them. Use your envy of other people as motivation to better yourself, but excise the part that resents them. The ability to do that is in itself is an intelligence
IIN to feel threatened by anyone who might be smarter than me?
