How do you cope with jealousy?

I've got a friend who really only likes to talk about herself. She doesn't like to listen to anyone else. She has a lot of great accomplishments, I'll admit that. And everyone around us knows that she's just an awesome person! But it makes me sick!!! She's bright and bubbly on the outside. But when she tells me stuff, she seems really depressed. But nobody else knows that! They think she's an amazing person!!!





Yes, I think I do have a green monster that keeps following me, but...I don't want things to end between our friendship! This has been going on ever since we were kids. I'd hate to lose a friend now.





How would you deal with this???How do you cope with jealousy?
work on making YOURSELF better. although she might be ';bright and bubbly'; on the outside, doesn't necessarily mean she is like that on the inside.





think positive in all you do and you will accomplish what your heart desires. you are your own beautiful person and no one can compare... so don't compare yourself to others. (:How do you cope with jealousy?
she wouldn't be my friend, if she can't listen to me SHE'S GONE
Your friend sounds great, but remember everyone has their down moments, and there are times when even the greatest persons need someone to confide in. I think it speaks to how great you are that this great friend chooses to confide in you. Maybe she just sees you for the great person you are? If you are helping her to cope when she is down and it helps to pick her back up you are being a friend. There is no reason for the green monster to turn what is a true sign of friendship into anything else. It is always better to have someone confide in you than to have them talk about you. Your other friends should be and may be jealous that she chooses to confide in you. Just stay positive.
have you ever sat her down and told her your feelings???? maybe she just does not know what she sounds like....if you have been friends a long time think of all the good stuff you guys have shared.....i am sure she loves hanging out with you for the same wonderful reasons you have described her as being...... talk it out...
For some people its easier for them to act a certain way on the out side an fell a hole other way on the inside you should just continue to be her friend but a true friend would pull her to the side an tell her that shes a great person but you don't need to hear it every day out of her mouth but just continue to be her friend because deep down inside you know how she really is so just be their.
get a punching bag it takes off alot of stress and steam to blow off if she seems depressed you have to stick by her
i woulden't say it's jealousy i would say that ur frustrated about how people don't really know about your friend write this frustration down somewhere and then if u want rip it up as much as u want. Also tell your friend about how you feel at least she'll know whats going on and won't be all upset at you.
Don't let yourself be a jealous person - it is a useless emotion.


However, someone who constantly brags about themself all the time is no fun either. We have a family friend who is like that, everything she does or her family does is the best thing and they are just perfect as far as she is concerned! If you try and tell her something about yourself she simply doesn't listen! I don't think she does it on purpose, she is just naturally a shallow and selfish person. Personally, I never ask her anything about her, that way she can't volunteer to talk about how great she is. Nearly everyone treats her that way now and she is slowly getting the idea.


It may sound harsh, but my simple answer is, when she starts on about herself, don't say much back. She will learn fast.
I jus think about all of d bad qualities dat d person Im jelous of has n all d gd 1s dat I hav





D person is only telling u dis stuff bcoz she dosent lyk her life, u prob hav a betta lyf den her
