Anybody here get "Facebook envy"?

I believe that people who wallow in misery (barring health issues that cause it) allow it. If they are your friends and you envy their partying, then go party with them. If they won't let you, they aren't your friends.
You control how happy you want to be and while envy can be a motivator for some, for others it's a detriment. You want a more exciting life, go make it.

This.

There was a long period of time where i felt stuck and miserable and just wallowed in self pity for a long time. I hated my job, my life, my lack of friends and how i would just be stuck at home unable to go anywhere.
It took me along time, and im still not where i want to be in life but early this year i finally started to take the steps i needed to take to get my life and myself where it is i want to be.

I quit my dead end job that i hated and moved down to fort myers with my mother. I got a new job doing something that i enjoy and that has the potential to become a career with time and effort on my part. Im finally being able to go out and do things. not glamorous things mind you but still things that are fun and that i enjoy. Im working to get myself both fit and healthy and one step at a time i can feel myself changing into who i want to be rather than settling.

I wont lie, i am a little scared but ive been stuck in the same "place" for so long and i wasnt happy at all. I miss my friends and family that i've left behind back home but atleast i can still visit them from time to time.

Lmfao @ those acting six shades of self righteous by saying they are never envious. Is it hard to be so full of crap? Lol. OP, just remind yourself that if the grass looks greener on the other side of the fence, it's because it has been fertilized with bull****. Everybody gets green from time to time, and I mean everybody! If it's not causing negative issues in your life, no biggie! Personally at times I've channeled the occasional envy into motivation to make positive changes. Thanks for keeping it real OP.

Thank you SO much for being so omniscient that you know what everyone else is thinking. NO, I don't envy anyone, envy serves no purpose. Nor does the above quote, which presumes to speak for others.

No way brah. They're all getting married and fat and popping out babies like Civil War era Hotchkiss Mountain Guns. Whatever the reverse of envy is, I get that.

No, I do not envy other peoples lives. Maybe I am in the minority. I love seeing everyones success.. Just like here it helps me to strive to do more for my family. It is very petty to be jealous of others lives when we have full control of our own.
