Unless someone's trying to take what's mine or kill me then their jealousy is not my concern. People have been jealous of me and envious of the things that I have. I try not to internalize other people's problems unless they get too close to me, my family or my livelihood. I have had to let a bish know a few times, but that usually resolved it.

Probably but I stay in my head most of the time. You can either confront them or ignore it until they find a hobby to occupy their time. So what is the story OP? Details you want to share?

Yup... I didn't handle it. It has never/will never be my concern. I don't throw what I have or what ive done in people's face but I wont downplay them to spare irrational feelings either.

I have ex-friends (cause i cut those birds off cold turkey when i saw it) that were jealous of me..always trying to compete with me and outdo me even though I never entertained a minute of it.
I'm not a competitive person in any way and I'm not childish so I don't care to "outdo" or compare myself to anyone. I was always there for my friends when they needed a shoulder to cry on or someone to listen to them. But I guess that wasn't enough. I've learned when you are blessed there will be people who wont like it, and will get envious of what you have.
Long story short, I don't tolerate it anymore. From anyone. There's no way to handle it. You can check them but they will just hide it. It stems from insecurity and unhappiness and I don't have time for that. They have to check that for themselves.
I only surround myself with positive individuals now.

I don't have a bunch of friends, I have 4 and if I thought one of them was jealous I would be down to 3. Life is too short for phuckery.
I must be odd, I do not notice this type of stuff.  If everyone is keeping their eyebrows waved, hair groomed, toe nail polish unchipped, exercising, taking care of they kids, going to school, pimples off they face, teeth white, keegals, grocery shopping, working do you realy find time to notice this stuff?
being fabulous YOURSELF is at least a part time job.

All the time. People have even been jealous of perceived things that I didn't even have. I don't think I've ever known how to handle it, really. I'm not a very jealous person by nature and that emotion often doesn't make sense for me when it's over petty things. There are people I should have let go much earlier than I did.
