Definition of a jealous person
Basically, a jealous person is someone who has a hard time feeling good about themselves and may act in ways that are hostile and resentful towards others. This can show up in many different ways. They might be very possessive or controlling in their relationships, always comparing themselves to others, or being ultra-competitive in social or professional settings.
How to deal with a jealous person
Dealing with someone who’s jealous can be a real challenge because their actions can really mess things up. Here are a couple of tips on how to deal with them:
1. Get their point of view: Take a moment to figure out what’s bothering them and what’s making them so jealous. This can help you see things from their point of view and maybe even figure out what’s bugging them.
2. Talk to them: Tell them that you see how their jealousy is getting in the way. Be honest and open, but also show that you understand and care.
3. Draw a line in the sand: If their jealousy is getting in the way of your relationship, you may need to give yourself some space to stay safe. That could mean talking less or being clear about what you want and how you feel.
4. Be there for them: If they’re dealing with those “I’m not good enough” vibes, give them a hand. Help them feel better about themselves by praising them and pointing out their skills.
5. Get some expert assistance: If their jealousy is truly affecting their life or relationships, getting help from a therapist or counselor could be a game-changer.
Just keep in mind that dealing with a jealous person can be a bit of a puzzle, and it’s not your job to sort out all of their problems. Still, if you show compassion and kindness, you might be able to help them sort through their thoughts and find a better way forward.
Famous people who are known for being jealous
It’s kind of tough to pinpoint famous folks for being jealous because jealousy is often something they keep hush-hush. But there’ve been times when some big shots got called out for feeling the envy bug. Check out some of these examples:
1. Taylor Swift: People are saying that the singer is jealous of other female artists, like Katy Perry and Kim Kardashian. Some people even thought that her song “Bad Blood” is about her fight with Perry.
2. Mariah Carey: The singer got called out for being jealous of other female artists, especially Jennifer Lopez. Back in 2002, when asked about Lopez, the singer dropped the famous line “I don’t know her,” sparking all sorts of talk about her maybe being envious of Lopez’s success.
3. Kanye West: The rapper caught some heat for supposedly being jealous of fellow artists, especially Jay-Z. Back in 2016, during a concert rant, this rapper went off on Jay-Z, claiming that Jay-Z was actually the jealous one, not being a solid friend and all.
4. Lindsay Lohan: People are saying that the actress is jealous of other actresses, especially Hilary Duff. In a 2003 interview, Lohan said, “I’m not that girl from Freaky Friday anymore” when they asked about Duff. So, people started thinking she might be jealous of Duff’s success.
However, you should always bear in mind that the situations above are just a few examples. And that jealousy is a complex feeling that can take many different shapes.

“Jealousy is such an ugly trait. I thought you mother taught you better”
Hey i feel like im constantly being put down by my cousin, if i say i dont like something she was thinking of gwtting
Or i said a girl wasnt as pretty as another 1 I get in a room full of people ypur clealry jealous. Im actually not and its embarressing. How can i intelligantly say something back. She flicks her hair and walks away. I feel so small help please.
You should totally ingore them. Hard. Like the i-will-ignore-you-so-hard-you-will-start-doubting- your-own-existence meme hard. When ever she tries to speak to you, you could turn and face her, and then pretend to be confused because you don’t see her, then shrug an keep walking
on. if she tries getting your attention AGAIN, you can do the same thing you did before, and then ask a bystander something like this: “Hey, did you hear something? Like, a high pitched squeal?” That will REALLY get her goat!
Hoping it helps, A Friend
Just ignore them. Everyone uses calling someone jealous because they’ll always win in the end if you try pleading your case. Their main goal when they call you jealous is to piss you off, so just be happy and smile and remember that words are just words and who cares what they think.
I would need something to be jealous of first.
I feel like my best friend is always mad at my accomplishments. She always feels the need to add on like “Dosen’t sound cool, but ok.” Is that a sign of jealousy, and should I confront her?
Hell yes, You need to confront her, you cant be living with this jealous person. I actually had the same type of bestfriend, but its not a bestfriend if they are jealous of you. A bestfriend is proud of what you do.
“jealousy is a disease get well soon bitch” was that a good one
never hate jealous people, they are jealous because you are better than them
Jealousy is a disease and calling me jealous is’int the cure
I’m flattered that you think I’m jealous. Whatever makes you sleep at night.
