True. I have learnt it in the hard way. And decided to keep good things happening to me private ever since. I found peace.

You're welcome , I love my family but certain ones seem to get jealous over stupid things @ZenKitty

ZenKitty · 31-35, F

@SW-User yeah..I try to keep my conversations minimal with those. But they are part of the family so I play it cool.

@ZenKitty my uncle got jealous because I own an iPhone soo pathetic when he has one too . He wants me to buy his kids iPhones because he thinks money grows in my yard

I have slowly and painfully learned to play my cards close to the vest. Take a short cut in the "school of hard knocks".....Keep your mouth shut. I'm not trying to be funny. It's a painful truth.

Oh believe me I have uncles that are jealous of me , it's sickening @zhafar

I found myself dumb-founded at the greed, lack of foresight, and the abandonment of family when my somewhat wealthy grandmother died. I turned my back for 30 years. Finally, some of my cousins and I are re-connecting. Very sad.

Envy is a sickness. I don't think jealousy applies here.

Agree. No one in my family knows what we make....It would piss them off. Some topics are just not discussed.

@LarryZ Jealousy is a natural occurrence so it's better to avoid it plus it brings bad luck .

@SW-User My Bro-in-law turns into an ass when someone else has better fortune than him. Take him gambling and hope you don't win otherwise he is unbearable. No fun.

SW-User

Yes I know some people have a lousy way of covering up their jealousy lol @LarryZ

Family are the worst!
