When they try to copy you, dress like you, color their hair the same as yours. Buy the same kind of car & try to add something different to it like they think its better. Same goes for your home when they try to copy what your doing with your home too. Or they always trying to brag & boast about how they think their stuff is better then yours when they really know it ain't your just happy with what you got & even though they may have something simular to yours their still miserable. Or they try to get your boyfriend or husband because they think if they do they are just as good as you when their not & never will be.

They watch you in awe, with that "DAMN I wish I had that" look on their face. But in reality, they know that once they have it, they wont want it anymore. Because we want what we cant have. And what we have, we get tired of eventually.

I don't know. I have never noticed anyone being jealous of me. I suppose if they are they keep it to themselves and it is for them to work out.

Jealousy comes in many forms! I would say that you will usually know that someone is jealous of you when you have to hear negative things that they have said about you from other people. These "jealous" people will smile in your face and cut up with you but turn around and verbaly rape you behind your back! Not to worry though because karma is a BITCH!!!

Hmmm, I would say that if they act obvious it sure is easy to tell but the jealous type rarely acts out in an obvious manner. Many times it's incredibly hard to spot. What I've noticed jealous people will do (that isn't the obvious 1up attempt after attempt) is; 1)They might put you down in other, unrelated areas to compensate in their minds to the fact that they are lacking. I've had a sibling abuse me emotionally much of the time for being the smart and talented one, instilling in my mind as much insecurity as they could to attempt to hold me back. Probably the most common act would be attacking someone's character by calling them horrible things in whatever way they can to make them feel bad, which temporarily makes them feel good for that moment they feel the tug of their discontentment. So then they'll continue over and over instead of facing their own insecurities about themselves. And keeping you down keeps the reoccurance of that annoying sting at bay as much as possible too. Sometimes, if they are able to find others to join in, a group effort can ensue (or they will simply whisper poison into the ears of those around you and they might join in out of believing their lies as well). 2)They might add on extra bits to minimize how good you are at your talent, how nice you're car is, etc. (ex: Yeah, you won the contest and got the trophy but the people competing against you really were crap so it's not like it was much of a contest.) 3)They might totally ignore any impressive things you do or make so they don't encourage you to further yourself and your talents and such. This is many time subconcious and the people will insist that they are not jealous and that they care about the other person, yet their actions and words (or lack of them) speak much louder and more truthfully to their real agenda than the strokes of their self-painting. This of course must be coupled with discernment as you might really not be that good at whatever you're doing and they're just trying to not say anything at all if they can't say anything nice. 4)They might even try to get you in trouble. I know professionals who have tried to setup other professionals (sometimes succeeding) simply because the other person is better at their job than them (or they are a threat to their job position's security). Sooo...haha. It's a sad thing when people act like this but I've seen it more often than not. So it's true, many times you have to really look for the good in people. Other than that, bad can be turned around for good and like Proverbs says, seek Wisdom! Hope that helps.

It takes a lot for me to realize. Usually, it comes down to the person being mean and trying to make me cry. I don't know why a person would be jealous, though.

I've had people be jealous of me before. I noticed that jealous people tend to be disrespectful and lose their manners around you. They say just about every hurtful thing they can think of, just to make you feel bad. Jealous people hate to see you happy, and they love to see you in adverse situations. Jealous people pay lots of attention to the things that you do, and they become overly preoccupied with you---such as the way you dress, the way you talk, the people you associate with, maybe even the way you walk! Whenever you are faced with a hater, just remember how pathetic they REALLY are because deep down inside they're wishing they had what you have.

I have a friend whos always making suttle remarks about my intelligence. I work as a retail manager and am getting a nice paycheck plus I get to travel quite a bit. She will make remarks like "Oh your job doesn't require you to use your brains unlike mine", (she's a free lance writter).Other times she'll say things like "How I wish I can just work in retail,life is so much easier when you don't need to think so much.I shouldn't have aimed so high".To me these are just signs of insecurities manifested into jealousy. I remember once I cooked a meal for us and she commented that the reason I could cook so well was because I wasn't intellectual. Totally crap of a woman,I eventually cut her off! Toxic people are a waste of time and should be left alone. Let them sort themselves out do not allow their sickness to get to you....

I don't care. Its not a problem with me but with them

They will act like you've done something wrong when you havent, and give you dirty looks to try and make you seem like you're ugly or somethings wrong with your wardrobe. take it as a sign that you have it going on. they always have this surprised look on this face. On a guy though, that would usually mean he is interested in you.

Generally, they'd have to tell me so.

BECAUSE THEY ALWAYS TALK NEGATIVE LIKE THEY DO ME AND THEY ALWAYS TALK DOWN ON MY CLOTHES SAYING THERE FAKE WHEN I GET THEM FROM DILLARDS IT'S NOT MY FAULT IM FRESH EVERYDAY AND MY CLOTHES ARE REAL AND YOUR WEARING CHEAP BASKETBALL SHORTS AND THESE ARE FOR THE DUDES AT BATON ROUGE COMMUNITY COLLEGE AND IN THE HOOD YALL ARE WORST THEN THE FEMALES.

IF I WAS YALL I WOULD LISTEN 2 ME ANYTIME YOU HAVE GOSPEL SINGERS TALKING BAD BEHIND YOUR BACK AND STARTING FAKE RUMORS YOU KNOW SOMETHING. THIS IS NOTHING 2 ME I GO THROUGH IT EVERYDAY. ALL DAT JEALOUSY AND PUBLICITY FOR A CLOSET FULL OF CLOTHES WHO WOULDNT TAKE IT.

WHEN YOU HAVE A LOT OF PEOPLE JEALOUS OF YOU KEEP DOING WHAT YOU ARE DOING BECAUSE WHATEVER YOU ARE DOING IS MAKING THEM JEALOUS AND THE MORE YOU MAKE THEM JEALOUS THE MORE THEY ARE GOING TO TALK ABOUT YOU BEHIND YOUR BACK, START FAKE RUMORS, AND TALK ABOUT YOU BAD. REMEMBER THE MORE THEY TALK ABOUT YOU BAD THE BETTER YOU LOOK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THEY WANT 2 DRESS LIKE ME THEY WANT 2 GET ALL THE GIRLS LIKE ME THEY WANT A LOT OF PUBLICITY LIKE ME BUT THERE CAN ONLY BE 1 ME THATS WHY THERE JEALOUS

WHEN PEOPLE START A WHOLE BUNCH OF RUMORS ABOUT YOU AND THE 2 OR 3 MAIN RUMORS ARE NOT TRUE THAT MEAN 9 TIMES OUT OF 10 THEY ARE JEALOUS AND THEY ARE TRYING EVERYTHING IN THEIR POWER TO BRING YOU DOWN. YOU KNOW YOU ARE THE SHIT AND A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE JEALOUS OF YOU WHEN THEY START A RUMOR AND TELL EVERYONE THAT YOU PISS ON YOURSELF. THEY DID THAT 2 ME WOMEN GET AT ME IM GETTING FAMOUS!!!!!!!!!!!!

Just turn around. If you feel a few sharp pains in your back...you'll know soon enough!

Yea like with me I always have people come up and tell me how beautiful I am. Because most of the time I'm mistaken for a female. Very Androgenyous my hair is a natural browndish blond people always ask do I dye it. I have long eye lashes naturally arched eyebraws Hazel eyes Im black and german sharp facial features which comes from my mom and I mean women just tell me god your so beautiful men come up and say I thought you were a beutiful woman. My hair is kinda styled like bill kaulitz from toky hotel another androgenyous male. And I always have those few people like this guy at schoolschool who always says why do u do ur hair like that oh its so gay. This mother****** is wearing played out cornrows i mean what does it mean when someone says something about me when Im beautiful.

I just don't get it people always have to ask are you gay im like hell no I cant be beautiful and be straight god. And im in California Los angeles that is and Im new here from what Ive heard there are alot of gay people here but Im just not one of them.I have been told many times that you should not be ashamed of the way you look the reality of it is is that you are more prettier than some females so embrace it. But it's just so hard I think its harder for me to even get a woman because I lack the masculinity most women seek. So if there are any women out there who dont mind being with a 18 year old in public and people thinking we are lesbiens myspace me or leave me yours..

people are definitley jealous of you when they say negative crap about you to make you feel bad. My ex partner constantly puts me down (i am married to another man by the way)we have a son together, so i have to keep contact with him. Which is minimal, as he is overseas. Although, my husband and I, still have a great relationship with his family and have contact with them on a regular basis, as my son goes to his family every weekend. I also have contact with his family on a social networking site also, where my ex is also a member. I will contact family on the site, just chat about normal things, absolutely nothing to do with my ex, and he will respond to my comments by calling me unspeakable things, calling me unattractive and so on. Its horrible!! I never respond to any of his acts of jealousy, as i know that he is disturbed by the fact that i am happy. And i do think the only way to deal with it, is not to stoop to their level of craziness, not to let yourself give in to their insecurities!!

Look at their eyes.

yh this boy i used to like and i still do his girlfriend threatened me and she only went back into school telling everyone tht my dad did it she called me a bitch behine my back and the boy he keeps on looking at me all the time and i dont know wht to do?

IM A MALE AND I DON'T MEAN TO BRAG BUT GIRLS CHECK ME OUT ALOT AND EVERYBODY IN MY FAMILY SAY IM GOODLOOKIN BUT WHEN IM WITH MY FRIEND HE ALWAYS SAYS EVEN HIS FAMILY THAT OOO YOU A UGLY ASS OR MAN THAT GIRL AIN'T LOOKIN AT U,U KNOW WHAT I MEAN PLUS ONE TIME WE WAS IN THE CAR AND WE BOTH HAD WATCHES AND EVERYTIME I WOULD SHOW MY WATCH OUT THE WINDOW HE WOULD DO IT.PLUS IM BLACK AND ONE THING ABOUT BLACK PEOPLE IS THAT WELL AND BODY FROM ANY RACE COULD GET JEALOUS BUT BLACK PEOPLE ARE MAINLY ALWAYS JEALOUS OF EACH OTHER AND NEVER STICK TOGETHER AND OTHER BLACK PEOPLE SAY IT TOO,THE PROBLEM ABOUT BLACK PEOPLE IS THAT THAY ALWAYS WANNA BE BETTER THAN SOMEONE AND IF THEY NOT LIKE YOU OR IF YOUR MORE ATTRACTIVE THAN THEM THAY WANNA CUT YOUR FACE, ROB WHAT YOU HAVE AND PUT YOU DOWN AND THATS NOT RIGHT.

Envy is an emotion that most people keep inside of them. 99% of the time you can't tell at all, and when you can, it's just a bit of unfriendly eye contact.

I'm in high school, and I transferred to a new high school just this year. I play baseball, and I would say I'm a pretty good baseball player. I can tell that people feel threatened by me in many ways, including that I am stronger and more confident than them. My only lack of is height, I am about 5'6, but I bench 205 at 140 lbs. Kids that are much weaker but also taller than me call me names like "gnome" and "dwarf", and recently they started spreading a rumour that this substance I was taking was Human Growth Hormone, all because they feel threatened by me and don't want me to make the baseball team.
