Envy of others. How to defend yourself?

Painting a colleague in colors, how coolly he spent the weekend with his beloved, and suddenly stumbles in mid-sentence: the expression of her face is far from understanding and sympathy. You leave the house all so beautiful, and my mother says thoughtfully after you: "It would not hurt you to twist the hoop or play sports!". You share the tremendous news with the boyfriend - you were instructed to lead a new project, and he sadly pulls: "And you can do it?" These people are not in a hurry to be happy for you. In their eyes, words and actions, the envious soul is clearly reflected!

If someone annoys your successes and achievements, then you can look at it from a positive point of view, so your successes are really significant and someone would like to be as successful as you, hence the envy. Probably, each of us has a friend who, at the sight of your new dress, manicure or hairdress, starts to say that she once had a similar haircut, and that she went very much and all around her only about her hair and said . Do not get upset at these words and run to correct your hair. Most likely, it was said in a fit of envy, so as not to look next to you clever and beautiful less fashionable and advanced.

Envy of mother
With the envy that the mother feels for her daughter, everything is much more complicated. Your mother does not get younger every year, the time when she was young and blossoming is already gradually passing, but it seems that she still can not accept this.

And every woman wants to be better and more beautiful than others, even her own daughter. This is our nature. The more tolerant is her mother, not her power to bring youth back. Think that someday you will be in its place, and then you will not be the rival of your grown up and prettier daughter. However, the fact that your mother wants to at least remain and seem as beautiful as before is worthy of respect. So maybe you should go shopping together and choose a new outfit for Mom? Let him drive gentlemen of his age mad and build eyes to your peers who came to visit you for a cup of tea.

But if this is not an isolated incident on his part, and this is repeated from time to time, and it is impossible to write off such behavior to some external factors, then there is only one way out - to escape without looking back from such a prince. Nothing good with such a person in life will not.
