From the OP’s post and subsequent comments from others. It just reinforces to me “what kind of world or we living in?
Where we as fellow human beings can’t be happy for other people’s success and progression in life. My God! It’s like “crab in barrel mentality”.
I personally am happy for people including strangers, when I see, read or hear of their good news. This life we live is so short, why are you hang up on other people’s downfall and misfortune. Instead of focusing on YOUR OWN LIFE and creating the happiness that you seek.
Your thought process and mindset to life comes across as a person who is highly insecure, envious, jealous and sadistic in nature. - Wishing to see other people fail or experience the same level of pain and hurt you feel.
Even if someone enters a room and looks happy and all put together; hair, makeup, clothes and oozing with positive energy and confidence, your the type of person to just instantly feel threatened and hate them for no reason at all but existing in the same space as you.
I am sick and tired of people like you who hate an innocent people for no reason and try to make their life hell in both personal and professional context. Please, get the help you need. That behaviour is not normal, it stems from a lack of emotional intelligence and empathy. This is typical for cluster B personality types; Narcissist, psychopaths and sociopaths.
There are genuinely Good people in this world who trust people, are quick to help, honest, loyal and are happy for others around them when they see them doing well or even better than themselves. Their siblings, friends, colleagues and strangers.
Think abundance. Life is not a competition. We all don’t want the same things in life. Our happiness is not all defined the same. So, let other people live and be happy without sabotaging them because you don’t know who you are or how to create your own happiness. Happiness is internal.
I read your post and all the other post trying to normalise cluster b personality traits and Narcissism and I am triggered. I am trigger because I am tired of dealing with people like you IRL. We see you, we know your MO and it saddens hearts,I It’s not a win for humanity. I have been through so much with Narcs I just avoid people in general now and ALL NEWS to myself. I’m not even on social media anymore cause of those people, they love to spy on you, stalk you to compare their life to you and also, to gather info to use to manipulate or use against you at an appointed time. Their envy and jealousy towards others all for living their best life has no limit.
I caught work colleagues spying on my social media handles. 3 work colleagues went and bought the same watch I wear to work. They stated to wear makeup and took interest in their outer appearance. Mind you they never into their appearance when I started working there. I started there wearing full face of makeup and not repeating the same outfit every day for an entire year. I planned AL to Holland in summer and 1 colleague book AL to Holland in autumn. Said colleague also bought same MK watch as me and started taking interest in her makeup, hair and dressing like me, out of no where.
Same colleague also, smiling to my face and going behind my back to smear me.- trying to isolate me in the team. I found out because my line manager told me to be careful of said colleague in supervision.
What hurt the most was I had trusted that colleague. I was nice to her. I did find the mimicking weird. I used to be placid and happy go lucky type of person. Very naive when it came to setting boundaries with colleagues. I was too friendly and thinking everybody has good intentions. It hurts but from that pain I learnt not to trust people I work with and set firm boundaries. I know better now.
When she thought I was pregnant, she ran and got pregnant. That’s how badly some people will use your life as a measuring stick for themselves and even to an extent where they want to kill you to be you. It’s scary!!
I am genuinely fearful of envious and jealous people and also, at the same time I’m just tired of people being jealous and envious of me for my wins and not my struggles. At this point based on all I have gone through both in personal and professional context, I think these people are parasitic and pathetic.
So, to the OP’s post please, get the help you need and don’t reck havoc and chaos amongst those you come across whom you perceive to be doing well in life. Let them live in peace. Stop seeking pleasure and joy from other people’s hurt and pain. It’s not sustainable and it’s maladaptive coping mechanisms. Get the real help you need.
Not judging you at all or others who have posted. My opinion in general.
