why so many friends just get jealous when their friends are doing better? WTF WHY??!! we are friends not to be jealous at each other OR back stab each other
I think Western influenced friends are a lot more selfish than back-country .. at least these people still have some innocent to them in believing in people. Quite frankly, I have come across so many friends like them. They talked shit behind you whether you're better off than them or not. Sometimes, people will do whatever just step on you or over you to get ahead.
I think it's in the gene. People wants to know they do better than the people they know, probably makes them feel better and increase their self-esteem. And negiq is right, some will do anything to get ahead even if they "sacrifice" their friend(s). Effects of a capitalist society? Nowadays, it's pretty hard to find those "brothers" and "sisters"
Some people uses people to get ahead and make them feel better by back stabbing their friends. Its a self confident problem that some people have, and is always jeolous if their friends are happier or better life then them. They think their friends they are back stabbing are stupid and wont know who is doing it to them. So will keep doing this till they feel better. So it's upto you if you still want to keep them as friends or not.
oh well some people are like that. i guess it's ok if it's a friendly competition but if they are seriously jealous just because your friend is smarter than you then i don't understand what they are thinking...
I guess its human nature to backstab someone that is better then you. Also that friend must have an annoying personality
survival of the fittest? friends should help each other whenever. i wonder why you would call backstabbing people friends
I think you're confusing friends with buddies. It's not hard to make friends but not all of them should be trusted. I know it's hard but you just have to be aware of these things.
jealousy is human nature but maybe your friends not just not mature enough or just overwhelmingly selfish which cannot be good friends.
I've been bs'ed by a acouple friends before, but I dunno I couldnt do that.. I would just feel too bad about it!
i agreeee.... u know...when ur younger u always feel everyones ur friend n u actually think u want n need a whole buncha friends...but when u get older u realize a handful of friends is all u need + ur siblings n parents
A friend in need is a friend indeed... Human beings are naturally selfish...we want to do things that benefit ourselves first. Unless its for a close family member or a loved one... So that's how a world is. Just move on and be strong, and show those backstabber you're not afraid of them. Eventually they'll give up and move on with life too...
friends will never back stab a friend remember that, if you got backstab by someone that person isn't your friend.
Personally I think its a good thing, to a certain extent. I'm sometimes jealous of my friends achievements so I then work harder to become better than him. Nothing like competition to make you get at it.
