Jerina SG Izzit true that once you become a bit successful, your friends stop feelg happy for you and they start feelg ever-so-slightly jealous? Anyone has such experiences?
seow SG See what kind of friend. Friends who befriend you for being "successful" are not friends i think.
parn SG Hmm...if you're talking about Singaporeans, then the answer is definitely YES. So best is to tell all your friends that you're more unsuccessful of them to enjoy their accompany. Else, tell them you're more successful of them if you don't need them to be your friends anymore. I'm always less successful to all my friends.
seow SG no wonder, i don't have many friends, no im not successful, got suck to people, also got look down on people one.
Twice A Day SG yes...frens do not become jealous once u r successful..Becoz if they are..then they would are not even frens in the first place..I would say lost a friend if hes jealous
beavan SG well some of them do get jealous, but they are still good friends. after a while it just gets on fine.
ha8n SG cant deny more >>> who knows wat they will do to u (unscruplous / back arrow/ try to make u look bad ) even if ur nice to them
Sakuraflower SG Dun hide ur talent because of ur friends... it is not worth it... A lot of people will get jealous because of ur success but it is the time to find ur true friend too... All the best!
Kawazoe SG which is why, your best friend is never your colleague, all will be jealous if u do better den them and some might even get so jealous they do things to sabbo u. My best frens are still from sec sch, frens ever since.
gasband SG It also depends on how you treat your frens when you are successful. If you start to act high and mighty becos you are earning more or in a loftier position, then you cannot blame your frens for isolating you becos you could be the problem instead of them.
crossover SG i have this friend who appears not to be very happy whenever i’m a bit better off than him… it has been for some time liao but i dun wanna confront him jus cuz of tt la… he will act sarcastic etc when i’m slightly better off lor… try to make me feel worse…
dreameryb SG This is just one instrinsic but ugly aspect of human nature. We generally do not want others to outdo us. The only persons who are not be jealous of your success are your parents.
