  1. Very true. This also applies to friendships as well. Ive seen myself when one friend does better it increases the feelings of inferiority in the one who has remained stagnant or unchanging so to speak. Over time this breeds envy, resentment and a desire to see the other person fail. This is one of the reasons people read gossip magazines. They like seeing celebrities who seem to have perfect successful lives knocked down a notch because of scandals. Gore Vidal once said " I die a little each time a friend succeeds" and another saying is " people don't mind you doing better, they just don't want you doing better than them" both are sadly all too real.
