I don't know is this happened to everyone or I am overeacting. But the situation is not in my control at all.My mother love me a lot but whenever I see my mom care for someone else, I become jeolous. when she gave more attention to anyone else in front of me I feel that I am loosing something and I get frustrated.It is not just people but pets too. Why does my mom have to care for the others when I am right there. That's wise I always quarrel with my siblings. Is this is normal? You also feel the same thing or not? Or I am overreacting person?

It is normal to fight with your siblings,but jealousy is inmature,ugly,evil and useless.All it does is cause more problems.Your mom has other people,pets,things in her life other than just you,which is normal.But,you have to learn to share.How would you like it if it were vise,versa?Would you like it if your mom was jealous of you to the point of having control of you completely.You could have no friends,phone calls,time away from home? Depending on how old you are,what if she didn't ever let you date,get in a serious relationship with someone or get married.I don't think that you'd like it much.

I think you need to realise that you are not the only sibling your mother has to take care of and you should not be feeling jealous because she gives time to your siblings too, they have needs just as much as you do. YOu are lucky that she cares for ALL of you. I'm not sure why you feel jealous of her either? I don't understand that!

I believe you are wrong.You don't need jealous and specially your mother.You ask if you overreacting?Of course yes.I'm sure your mother loves and cares about you.The jealous is from the more bad felling for me.I don't jealous at all so is little hard to understand you. Just try see how a love caring mother you have,for these she cares and loves anyone around her.

Hi desertking! You should not be feeling that. Instead of being jealous, be thankful that you have such wonderful caring and loving mom, that makes you very fortunate. I use to feel less love by my mom before and I thought she loves my brother more than me and that made me thought maybe I was adopted.. silly thoughts! Thank God I didn't do or say anything about it that would've offended my mom because now I see and feel that she loves me so much! You have to understand that it is not only you who needs to be loved, there are siblings of yours also who needs care and love otherwise they will feel neglected and they might blame your mom.. Do you want that to happen? I believe you love your siblings and your mom too and you don't want them to feel neglected... Don't be jealous but be understanding. I assure you, your mom loves you so much and think that nothing can stop her from loving you forever.

Some is normal. Not what your feeling.Pets shouldn't make you jealous. Does she give you as much attention as the others? If so, chill out. sincerely http://electric-scooterinfo.blogspot.com
