How can I stop being so jealous????

Question

There is an exchnage student from Japan and she lives with me.At first I was glad that she is staying with me cause I wanted a new friend but now I am starting to hate her.She is sooooooooooo poular and Im not popular cause I have selective mutism which makes life difficult...anyway, home is bad enough as my parents favour her but school is horrible.Everyone likes her she has soooooo many friends.My friends are obsessed with her as she is friendly and outgoing..exept to me.She ignores me at school as she has so many friends.I got really upset yesturday cause after school my closest friend said bye to me but then told the exchange student to ring her, probably so they could hang out on the weekend.And now she is out with all her friends and i have to hang out with my parents instaed.What should I do???Not only am I jealous...Im also lonely.

Answer 1

I think jelousy is part of growing up and its a learning curb for everyone. Don't show that you are jelous. Maybe sit down with your parents and say look im having some problems i feel like im not fitting in as well as i used to and explain why and get talking to them because i can understand jelousy that your friends are close with her but when you feel like your family is closer with her than you thats when you need to talk to your parents and give them a chance to give you their opinion too as well as your friends dont make them hate or dislike her because thats nasty but you know people grow apart friends i mean. It doesnt mean they arent interested in you anymore they might just want more than just one good friend its understandable. If your feeling lonely do something you love doing on your own like a hobbie and meet some new people aswell but always remember that you have friends that care about you and a family that loves you.

Answer 2

All you need is a change of attitude. Have a good picture of yourself so you can reflect them to people around you. The Japanese girl is an excellent social person, so everybody likes her. You might as well emulate her friendliness. Don't be jealous. It's an eye opener to you so you will change your self-centered way.

Answer 3

why dont you send her back to japan? or confront her and tell her to back away from your friends!  also, you said depends on his personality on my question??? lol
