Is it normal to hate a girl when everyone loves her ?

Is it normal to be so envious of a girl or lets say a nearly 28 year old woman(in a month ) i know , who has about 1009 friends(and counting ) on facebook , and gets all the love and compliment and is very successful and looks way way younger than 28 , LIVED HER YOUTH with all the outings with friends and doing masters , and travelling abroad , is someone important and popular in the more than one society , STILL looks like a pretty or cute school girl ,(face and body ) NOTHING has changed looks wise and alot of the personality is the same ,I mean she doesn't even look like a college student ,also alot of GIRLS baby her and tell her "honey " "Sweetie " , "adorable " and nickname her name( at 28 years of age ), etc as though she's still 6 , is it normal to HATE that girl and wish bad things happen to her (starting with her looks ) while everyone loves her ?

    In my experience, the number of facebook friends you have is inversely proportional to the number of actual friends you have. And a facebook compliment is less meaningful that getting flipped off in traffic. It takes no real effort or even sincerity.

    Will this help: if she actually looks that young, how do you think she will feel when her looks finally fade? Do you not think that she probably spends a fair amount of time and probably money on her looks? All women think that they are ugly on some level in their heart of hearts. Do you think that she has all those "friends" because of her sparkling personality (which I can't help but notice you make no mention of)? Do you think she worries that people won't like her as much if she looks different? It sounds like she is affluent or has wealthy parents. Could this be why people are so unfailingly nice to her? Or perhaps she just works really hard and is lucky. I have no idea.

    Just remember that this woman is a real person, not just some apotheosis, that she has problems in her life, insecurities, that she isn't perfect, despite what you percieve to be a flawless, charmed life,

    Hi!

    Yeah, I've struggled with my own envy problems for years, but I'm at last getting past them. I've found that it helps to think regularly about the people who I love rather than obsess over the people who I hate...:-).

    Also, I heard a quote from a book by Sarah Dessen a while back: "One [personal photo] in particular jumped out at me. It was a shot of three beautiful girls (obviously sisters), all blonde, posing together by a pool, and even at first glance all I could think was that they looked like the kind of girls who had everything. A great family, fabulous social life, palpable confidence, all the stuff I wished I had in high school and beyond. Later, though, when I was driving home, I kept thinking about that picture and how quickly I'd made assumptions about it. After all, nobody's life is perfect, and you can't tell anything from just one shot, one day. I started to wonder what it would be like to be one of those girls, with everyone so quick to judge, and just how wrong they might be."

    Jealousy is a sign of weakness. Be strong and move past this. :-)

    Dude she's only 28 not a 50!!!! Everything you said sounds pretty normal for a 28 year old that had a decent life. You probably don't want to hear this but you sound jealous. This is usually the part where I would say that you too can live your life to the fullest, get in shape, take care of your body and have fun. Think of being as cool as she is as a fun and healthy journey to better yourself and be the person that you've always wanted to be. If she can look great and have a great time why can't you? If you are truly happy with yourself than you won't be hating on her so much. I wish you the very best of luck!

    • Sounds good ,but i always have "jelouse " people as well . who don't want me to be that happy , i know that from thier vibes , the things they say , the things they do , thier eyes are like a negative owls eyes ..watching me ,and trying to ruin my happy moments . What should i do about that or them ? , the ironic thing is that some of them have almost everything except a skin that's like the rest and a different nationality .

    I have never been jealous of anyone in my whole life! Probably coz I'm not one of those 'pity me' type of people - even though we were poor and I had an abusive childhood.

    Someone on this site directed me recently to read about John Rosemond who's a psychologist and talks about this generation's feelings of entitlement.

    So you feel as though you should have her life? Why? What have you done to deserve her life more than her?
    I bet that if you knew all the troubles she has, you'd be glad you are you.

    If I were you, I'd concentrate on myself and stop blaming other people for your own failings.

    It's normal to envy her, but not necessarily to the point of hating her. Have you even talked to her? She could be a very nice person. You might change your mind if you get to know her. I've changed my mind about quite a few people, sometimes in a good way, sometimes not.

    I'm overly jealous of a women as well. She's stealing all of my friends because she's way better than me, but honestly even though she's a total jerk (she's done more stuff then stealing friends) I still wouldn't do anything or wish anything bad to happen to her. I know if I wish bad things to happen or cause bad things to happen, karma will definitely come back to haunt me. Plus thinking negatively towards my situation won't help at all nor will getting revenge. Everyone has something they don't like about themselves, everyone has problems.

    You sound a little obsessed with this girl, but what you really need to deal with is your own jealousy. There will always be people who are prettier, smarter and more popular than us. When you come across one of these people who seem to tick ALL the boxes it really sucks, I know. If it helps, remember that everybody has some problems and insecurities and will experience loss and disappointments in their life. There is no need to add to these intentionally or wish them upon others. Instead I would suggest taking a step back and and a good look at your own life. What can you improve? How can you make it more fulfilling. And only compete with yourself!
