Are you an Envious person?
Long as we're into various emotional things. Are you envious? Something you'd like to have or be able to do?
I suppose with me, it's more pure admiration than anything. What this guy does has been filmed and analyzed many times. Can anybody else do it as well? Nope. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WAEnKCL3stU

Is this a trick question?
I'm not envious of others.....it is they who are envious of me!

Not a big pool player so that doesn't interest me much... for me it would be the great guitar players, EVH, SRV, etc.
Now all the cool cars/motorcycles you guys own... THAT makes me envious!

I'm envious of people who have a blissful lack of self awareness

People who routinely envy others are stricken with a bad curse.
Thank God I'm not one of 'em with that hangup. Class warfare is ugly. rjp

I'm not envious of anyone. I'm perfectly happy with where I've gotten in life, and who and what I have in my life.

I really don't want and certainly don't need anything more in my life. I don't think my life would be improved by "striking it rich".
There was a 5-10 year period in my late 20s/early 30s where I was mostly single and I was a bit envious of friends with happy families. I have since married and have a lovely wife and great children so that period is behind me.

I am sometimes envious of others but never jealous. There are people/friends of mine that have something really great. I can be envious but I'm also completely happy with my own situation. I may strive for things that I'm envious of and that's motivation for me.
