Do any of you have friends who are clearly jealous of you?

Well I am going to sound like a jerk. (-: Some people who cant keep up have to be left behind.


That statement is all about attitude. When you begin to do well, some people will grab at your ankles and try to pull you back. That is not friendship . .


I have some friends who are way smarter and way more successful than I am. Not to many people fall under me, but admittedly I have left a few behind.


Hmm . . friendship is a supportive connection. Mutual support that reaffirms failures and depression is not a friend ship . . . it is as destructive as it sounds when you write it down.

I'd change the topic and in the future avoid providing information regarding benefits or salary. it's no one's business but your own.

It all depends on what you are willing to live with.
