i wish there was someone who could answer this question. why do some peoples' lives just go perfectly? some of my friends (don't really know if i can call them friends anymore) have such perfect lives and i keep comparing their lives to my life and just find it so unfair. they have so many friends, they always have somewhere to go and hang out, they always have someone who wants to hang out with them. also, they have so accepting families, they get everything they want and everything just works out for them. why can't my life be like that. it's so unfair. i just want a life like them so i wouldn't have to suffer from this feeling. i'm so lonely, i have'nt talked to anyone except my family in two weeks and it's driving me so crazy. i don't know what to do i just really want to disappear.

I think the best thing that you should do is to start talking to your family about the things that you wanted to do. Be bold to them because sometimes they really don't know what you are feeling. Always remember that having a family that know you better is almost like having a bestfriend. Cheer up! There is always a way to find things that is missing :)
ReplyI'm glad that I'm not jealous of my friends and vice versa
ReplyHey, I'm so sorry you're going through this. It is incredibly difficult to not compare ourselves to others. Especially those close to us. A couple of things to remember is, no matter how many friends a person has or how much money they have it isn't a reflection of how happy they truly are. I think, just from this post because I don't know you personally, you are a much deeper person than they are. That is something to be admired! Instead of comparing your life with their's, try to focus on the good things you DO have. This will create a culture of gratitude within your heart. Take up hobbies, read, write, create deep, meaningful relationships with a couple of people. A person with a lot of friends is typically more lonely because they don't typically open up to all of them and commune with them in a meaningful way. I don't know if any of this makes sense, but I hope it is somewhat helpful.
ReplyComparing yourself to others will never never end my dear! Who are you going to compare to next? Obama's daughter? Learn to appreciate little things at one time, here's a tiny example. I hated my fingers because they are short and stubbly whereas other girl's fingers are also long and slender. but there's once i saw a girl texting on her phone and her fingers are all just stubs! meaning her fingers are... choped off? or what not. but she was texting on the phone, a little struggling because none of her fingers can't reach either side of the phone very well, with the brightest smile on her face! and i felt so ashamed that i was discontented with my fingers when she could smile that brightly with less than what i had. So Cheer up and fight on!
