Ever since I was a youngin' i've been an envious/jealous person. I have no idea WHY i  am like that but i hate it so much.

A big example and reocurring theme is when a guy gets a girl that I wanted. Like today, my sexy latina walks in the gym with this white dude player that goes there and always tells me how great I look. He isn't bad looking but seeing her with him made me rage. Ruined my workout

The thing is I can see how silly it is but I can't help the feeling. One of the worst feelings imo

Any advice?

His eyebrows sparkling, his white beard hangs down to his chest. The thatched mats, spread outside his chise, spread softly, his splendid attos. He polishes, cross-legged, his makiri, with his eyes completely absorbed.

He is Ainu.

The god of Ainu Mosir, Ae-Oine Kamuy, descendant of Okiku-Rumi, He perishes, a living corpse. The summers day, the white sunlight, unabrushed, ends simply through his breath alone.
Forget about the world
Stop caring about anything

I couldn't care less about dating them, asking girls out isn't the problem. It's them being with someone else that gets to me. Really unhealthy and bordering pathetic actually but i feel comfortable asking you guys for advices :)

There's sort of a thin line between a feeling of jealousy and entitlement. From the sounds of it, you see some guy getting with a girl you want, and you think you deserve to have her, instead. It's not just a matter of wanting what somebody else has, it's the feeling that you should have it.

That's a hard one to advise on since it's not neccessarily a habit, but more of an inherited trait.

I'd have no idea how a materialistic person would change that. Just like how I could never see myself getting pissed over material things or even really wanting them, or, how I'd change that.

The best bet is to rationalize things. Ask yourself the important questions. When you get envious or jealous, ask yourself why. You'll usually get a truthful answer back. How true it is, of course, depends on how afraid you are of reality, or acknowledging it.

The angel agreed to trade a set of white wings for the head of another demon. Overjoyed, the demon killed one of his own and plucked the head right off its still-warm body.

The angel then led the demon to heaven, where he underwent centuries of the cruelest tortures imaginable. Finally, the pain was so great that he lost consciousness - at which point his dark wings turned the promised shade of white.

You need to feel satisfied. Being confident that 'she's yours' is the only way to get over this fear of someone else taking her (envy).

Alternatively, get over the idea of 'owning' people -- you can't.

I want you to lock yourself in 12x6 plywood closet. The only two items you are permitted to have within this compartment is a low intensity dynamo flashlight and a black permanent magic marker.

Before entering the void, set an alarm destined to ring each hour of the day. Input the dying screams of a Serengeti wildebeest as the alarm audio.

Sit inside the domain you have built. Lay in self meditation for a period of 4 hours each day. When the alarm sounds, turn on your flash light and inscribe the word GOD on the middle of your palm.

Choke yourself violently for a period of 30 minuites, increasing the rate of asphyxiation as your body becomes accustomed to this ritual.


You will live a life of envy in the periods between sessions, as you have been touched by God himself.
