blair08 Posted February 11, 2008 Posted February 11, 2008 Hello, I'm new here first off. Nice to meet you all. I hope people here can give me some insight on what might be going on with me. I'll try to keep it brief. I'm not sure what is wrong with me. But for some reason I think everyone I know is bascially jealous of me. A family member or a friend can say something that I might feel is offensive even if its not meant that way, and I automacially think its because they are jealous of me, and assume that is why they made whatever kind of comment to me. I have been told recently by a friend that I shouldn't think like that, and that it might be true some people are that way but not ALL people are like that, who tell me things I don't want to hear. I try not to assume things, and have been told by others at times I read to much into things too. Is it possible I have some kind of disorder with the way my thnking patterns have been with me thinking alot of people are jealous of me when they tell me something?
Star Gazer Posted February 11, 2008 Posted February 11, 2008 In order for you to feel as though everyone is jealous of you, you must think very, very highly of yourself. What exactly do you think they're jealous of?
a_torn_novagirl Posted February 11, 2008 Posted February 11, 2008 Welcome. I have the same problem, but I don't think people are jealous of me. I just like to read more into something than there really is. People might say mean comments to you, because you put yourself on a pedestal. You might come off as an ice queen to them, and this message you wrote isn't giving me the best impression of you right now. Take those comments as something that you need work on. If everyone is making comments to YOU....the problem might be YOU. I try to be honest, not hurtful and mean.

Do you think its possible you have low self esteem and you wish they were jealous, so you just kind of interpert it that they are? Just a thought.
