      Yeah it’s very mentally I’ll the amount of guilt tripping and manipulation they display. personal trainer admitted to be jealous of me and the owner has talked smacked about me to my face and behind my back while I stay in the same room. Yeah totally normal brotherly behavior. I stay positive and god driven and willing to change like the stories of those of the Book of Daniel. It’s an amazing feat imo for me to continuously rise to higher vibrations than they impose on me.

      Yeah I can vouch. Had a distant relative (con artist) come to “help” me care for my grandpa when he had a stroke in my 20s. No one would come and help us and she got into his head and said she would come help. Bad idea. Grandpa told a friend before he died “I made a mistake”. That con artist not only stole his legacy (and my healthy trust fund he was passing on), but she isolated him so much, I was having to call to find him almost every day. Found out he was usually in the house but they were disconnecting the phone and leaving him or buying up all sorts of cars and things. I still feel guilt because I had moved to Canada and was fighting for him remotely. He was my best friend. I trust no one. ❤

      It is not envy in a sense that they want "the same thing", it is more that, they think so low of you that they don't think you deserve it. They think you are a "peasant", and you don't deserve good things to happen to you. They just use you to pass their time and to stimulate themselves. It is a hard realization when it hits you.

      Sad reality. I am beginning to believe there are more people who lack integrity than those who possess it. I know no one is perfect and we can all do things when we are en route to becoming adults that can hurt others even when we don’t realise it, or have not yet matured enough to understand the consequences. But, I am seeing most seems to never mature into adults with the real ability for empathy and never seemed to develop conscience. Selfishness at all costs seems to be most peoples blueprint for living their lives.

      Beware of being love-bombed. It's intoxicating when it happens, and these people can come to us when we're very vulnerable, like when we're in a state of grief. As Robert says, that kind of rapid intensity isn't natural, but when we're stumbling, we can fall prey to it. You can watch out for it, but there's no real protection. It's just life. When it occurs, try to love yourself through it.

    My mother inlaw had some pictures of myself with my little sister, and she showed me the face, in many pictures she had that face looking at me, I did some tests to see if my mother inlaw was correct, well my heart was hurt, my little sister did indeed secretly hate me, I later found out that she was secretly behind my back going to my mum and older sister gossiping about me, then coming to my face with a smile. She passively aggressively bullied me then gaslight me, I didn't notice because I love her still do, what hurts is I actually gave her my life, I gave her more then half my wages when she was a young teenager, made sure I went around other girls to let them know don't mess with my sister. And deep down, she actually hated me FOR NOTHING, not just that, but gossiped to family about me. She was sending provocative pictures to a guy I was chatting with, then when I confronted her, she point blank Said "why r u jealous" so nasty, by the way she had a boy friend with a child to him, which i have never revealed what she was doing. I didn't understand because I would of took her side no matter what. I finally now say no to he. Myy boundaries r fully up with love and compassion. I literally gave her my unconditional love my life, and all the while she was playing me and lying about me, but coming to me as a victim of everyone. Now I am apparently evil because I finally found my worth and say NO. The funny thing is my mother inlaw spotted it.

    This is actually a must, as Robert has nicely put it; "You're not going to get rid of envy". Thus, it's just better to embrace it all the time and never take it personally. Let envious people be the pathetic losers that they are instead. They will die on the inside while you shine bright in your own light.

    • @MrSmurf459
      @MrSmurf459 2 місяці тому +1

      Agreed! Jealousy and envy are normal human emotions that we all have, hence the notion of never taking it personal! Two issues I see, individuals who claim that they have people around them that are jealous of them can also be suffering from a little bit of narcissism, jealousy and envy at times can be not so easy to detect at first so people need to have enough self awareness to be accurate in their assessment! Secondly, I’m a little more understanding of someone’s perceived jealousy or envy towards me or other people! Who knows someone’s genetics, upbringing and environment?!?!? Where I don’t believe in a world of freewill then I’ve become a bit more empathetic towards someone’s hate even towards me! But as I sense it, I deal with that person accordingly, because as discussed, these people will literally ruin your life!
      It’s up to us as individuals to use our jealousy and envy appropriately and to not let it destroy us!

Im extremely cautious now, a friend recently said “your so lucky you don’t have to deal with work” and I immediately withdrew form the conversation. I know if i feel envious it means I probably want something they have, but i have enough faith to know if it was meant for me I’ll have it or that i can work towards and have what they have anyway, so it doesn’t last long at all. My paranoia is that 90% of people seem to not be able to do the same..

You try and cut them off and they feel as though they have been wronged. You can help and support these people but their behaviour reverts back to toxicity. They feel entitled to your help.

When I hear "oh their jelous of you," I cry inside because I know it's just a matter of time before the spiritual attacks from that person begins. Then the sabotage, backstabbing...😢

    Envy is a message that we want something like that for ourselves & what we should perhaps work towards.
    Unfortunately most people utilize envy as a form of comparison & measure their own worth by what OTHER people have. That’s when it’s dangerous.
    I think I’m lucky in that I naturally want everyone to be happy & succeed because I see it as contributing to overall world happiness & possibly peace.
    In the few times I feel envy I’m thinking to myself “I’m happy for them for having XYZ, and I don’t want to take it from them, nor do I assume they came about it by nefarious means, but I’d like to have it also. And perhaps, if possible, I will ask how they achieved it.
    Misery loves company & I feel so sorry for people who believe that others succeeding means that they are failing.
    Comparison is the thief of joy.

I think everyone vents when undergoing stress. And when you are surrounded by people who is like this in the first place you develop a beehive mentality. And then you realize oh god, what happened to me? There is a saying "don't bite the hand that feeds you". And it's not always as easy as cut them off.

It makes sense on the surface, but when I actually think about it, it seems that most people are insecure about one thing or another. So it seems to me that if you’re hanging out with more confident people it’s good for you but bad for them because their confidence might be effected by your insecurities.

      This is very good advice, actually. The two difficulties you're having are, 1) interpreting the word "better" in a somewhat superficial way, and, 2) a failure to adequately consider the alternative. About the first, "better" doesn't mean "self-flauntingly, boastingly better." That would NOT be "better" people. Rather, people who are "better" are those with a solid, mature, healthily integrated self-understanding, a healthy altruism (which means, they're also not anybody's doormats), a healthy ambition in life to keep pushing themselves for more learning, discovery and rich exploitation of their own gifts in ways that contribute to the lives of many others. THAT is "better" and there is NO downside to trying to associate with, learn from, emulate such people. Don't confuse "confidence" of the best kind with narcissism. He's not saying, of course, 'Go out and find a bunch of narcissists to associate with." So, no, it's definitely NOT bad advice to spend time with the most healthily confident people you can. About the second, your failure to adequately consider the alternative. Usually when a concept presents some difficulties to comprehension, a very helpful trick is to imagine its extremes, so that the concept becomes stark and easily identifiable. So consider the alternative in the extreme: you can't really believe that there would be any upside to surrounding yourself and immersing yourself, your whole life, in a circle of people who are all plagued and riddled with crippling insecurities, jealousies, envy, mutual suspicion, petty rivalries, laziness and a refusal to get up and TRY, all of them scrambling after their perception of the biggest piece of a pathetically miserable small pie, ready to stab each other in the back to be the Big Fish in their fetidly ingrown small pond. You think you'd do yourself, or them, any good by wasting your life among them, ESPECIALLY by the way, if you did it with the notion "Okay, at least I'm 'better' than this crowd, so by being with them I'll improve them"? (As if they wouldn't read that right away, and you can imagine how they'd just lo-o-ove that.) I think that pretty much settles that. As for your last question. Again, what do you mean "people who are better than you"? If you mean they're TELLING you they're better than you, then guess what: they're not better than you. If you mean, more experienced, more wise, well-balanced, genuinely helpful and adept at maintaining boundaries, then, don't worry, Rocky, you won't be able to harm them by associating with them even if you wanted to (and we'll assume it's not your purpose to want to, right?).

    Unfortunately for myself, I’m simply a person, who bad things happen to. I seem to have a lot of problems with people, by probably a few major factors, like merely being civil, being alone (predatory people love this), and racial and gender factors play their part.
    I do work to save myself and mitigate people, however. I don’t like talking about it, for the purpose of just talking about it. I also don’t see it as my problem, that I don’t comply, with what people want from me. What they typically have wanted are things like free caregiving or, perhaps, a free place to live. Since that’s a no, yes, I’m the problem.
    I hat I’ve learned, however, is the key to it is to not simply mitigate people with strong boundaries, but to just not say anything. You must suffer in silence, until you’ve rid yourself of them, because no one has any empathy for you anyway. Often, they will side, with the person who’s trying to use you actually. They may often feel you should give up your life, to become a vessel for use. You may also be conveying the problem - to someone else, who also intends to be a problem.
    Where frenemies are concerned, even though I’ve had some successes and done some things, I don’t think I’ve done a great deal. But then, comes the people who have done absolutely nothing. They are also the types that don’t want to do what you’re doing, but they either still want what you have or they want to destroy what you have. Even the types that don’t want what you want, but simply don’t want you to have it either. And I’ve definitely met the type and been the target of, “I know you have your nice career going and your life seems to be comfortable. But, I’d feel more comfortable with you, if you played nursemaid to me, since I didn’t make any plans for my own care. By the way, you are GOING to be doing that.” Yeah, keep the fantasy going.
    So, what is the key? Be scarce. Learn how to be comfortable, celebrating your successes alone. Because quite often, even your own mother is not happy with those successes. Mine tried to destroy mine.

    It’s a bit odd how the speaker keeps saying that envy and lack of happiness for other people is so normal compared with being happy for people. It is natural to be happy for others. Moreover - we all have control over our emotions, and can choose to be happy for others and not go down the path of envy. Sure, chimps feel envy. But we’re not chimps. We have the power to choose good, and we should. Even when it’s hard.

    Be very careful whom you let in. Your energy is precious. Do not just drop your boundaries when lower vibrational people suddenly want to become your bestie. Be selective and picky. Real friends are few and far between. Remember that. Not everyone you meet is meant to stay.

    I absolutely love Robert Greene and have several of his books. I agree with much of what he says, but respectfully disagree with some of his points here. Yes, envy/jealousy are unfortunately human traits, albeit lower energy level. But this is NOT natural or a default state to be in. Those who choose to play victim, are insecure, blame everyone/everything for their lives, or refuse to do work on themselves to heal their past traumas will of course display these lower human qualities. But the default state of human beings is love, kindness, compassion, community, honesty, etc. - characteristics that are very vivid in innocent children who still have that purity in them. Unfortunately we lose sight of these traits as we grow up, when falling victim to toxic environments (family, friends, school, career, etc). True that many have suffered horrific situations in their lives, and the pain and trauma they've gone through is very very real. We've all experienced this. But ultimately it is each and every one of our responsibilities to work on ourselves to heal from those traumas so that our inner love and kindness may resurface - that includes forgiving our little selves and what we've been through, forgiving (i.e. letting go, detaching from) those who've hurt us, whether family, friends, coworkers, partners etc. Basically cutting cords with all who no longer serve a purpose in our lives; wiping the slate clean to allow more aligned, kind, compassionate individuals and circumstances to enter our lives; and working on changing our lives for the better. Hurt people hurt people, but healed people also heal people ... remember that :)
    Sending love to everyone - wherever you are. May we all stay safe, away from evil people and environments, and work to be the best version of ourselves each and every day ♥

    I gotta say some people, who open up their problem, aren't necessarily insecure. Often, insecure people are loud and bias. Those perceived to be negative are usually too honest to a fault that can be draining at times. All they need is to be heard and probably some suggestions would help that person a lot.
    Charming people are happy to be with but may not be there when you are vulnerable or at lows; AND don't easily brush off people that have opinions and being vulnerable with you, relationships aren't black & white.
    So yes, we need to read people but that takes a loooong time to finally say, yes this person resonates with me or toxic 😛

Multiple times I told her I want to stop being friends with her but she always make me feel like I’ve done something wrong and the I’ve done her wrong and she cries victim to my mom everytime trying to remain friends with me.

Sadly I got some and she was so envious and tried to tell this guy that was interested in speaking me, that I had “ stomach issues” right in front of me. Still didn’t work, still continued to pursue me and every man that would smile my way, you could see the jealousy in her eyes. 😂 Your girl is a plain Jane so I’m not saying I’m gorgeous… but I can’t man.

    When I met you and you began to download everything about people, organizations, and yourself without asking, I'll watch out for your nonverbal clue, read your👁 It doesn't deceive. Also, your body has no capacity to hide your envious spirit if your mouth can hide it and speak love,your body can't. It automatically rejects it as you profess jealousy in your spirit towards others. Take time to study people's eyes and body language. That's the clue to spot envious people.
    Example:I met with someone so envious of me to the point she was looking at me dejected and depressed,unknown that I was watching her until I called her out, and she said it wasn't you😅 and another encounter was a friend who transfer the aggression on her spouse as if the man was wrong. She began to yell at the man when someone told her a certain truth about me.This is a close friend.
