What’s up with people about jealousy?
IMO, there is so much different between “I’m so envious/I envy you” and “Do you envy me?/Are you envious?”!!
Well, the former is like you might see something and want to do or have but not necessarily really really want or have an urge to do/have it. But, the latter is, IMO, like an insult esp from the people whom I count as “friends”. We’re too old to do these thing, I think. Seriously, would it be more satisfying to the asker if the answer is “YES, I’m envious.”
Helloooooooo … Do you even know me!???! Are we friends???
hmm .. maybe they don’t realize it’s not good thing to say to a friend. Or, I’m too serious about this?
PS. My response? “Should I be (envious)?” heheh
