I feel bad admitting this, but I am often jealous of other women. I absolutely do not act upon these feelings, and I would never do something bad to a woman that I am jealous of.
Anyway, I feel that these thoughts impact me negatively. I worry that i may unconsciously treat women I'm jealous of badly.
To give some examples, I am jealous of women who are: smarter than me, better-looking than me, more sociable than me, richer than me, and so on.
I feel awful admitting this, but if something mildly bad happens to a woman I am jealous of, I feel gleeful. I absolutely don't want to feel this way, but I do.
How can I combat these feelings?
