I know someone that will copy everything. If someone gets a new car they will sell the one they have and get a new car. If you get a pet they will go get the same pet too. If you buy something for the house they will buy the same as well. Lately when I get something I always ask so when are you geting the same thing (just to let them know hov obvius they are. They are ok people nice to talk to and have fun but man that is driving me crazy. Do you know someone like this?

No... I don't know anyone like that.
But there was a guy in the movie "The Italian job" who did it. After committing a robbery... everyone was discussing what they were going to buy with their share of the money. He then stole the money from his partners and went to buy all the things his partners wanted to buy.
It shows a total lack of imagination. Those people don't have a life. They try to live the life of someone else. Pretty pathetic really. You should almost feel sorry for them... more than anything else.

I used to have a friend like that. Everytime I did something she would all of a sudden love it. She'd always want to borrow my clothes too. I'm very individualistic so that really bothers me. I don't talk to this girl anymore. Its not because of the copy thing... she had other major issues.

I would say there are countless people like that.what is really interesting is why do they get jealous for some one buying something.what i have noticed is that these people are very hypocrytic in nature,they want people to praise them for what they are otherwise they get agitated.the problem with such people are they dont really understand the essence of life and they just run back of the lust of life.but ofcourse one day these people would surely realise that they had wasted their life running back of things that didnt matter much in life.even one of my relatives have this very bad nature,as this is a public community i dont want to put on his name here.

Yes, I know someone like that. Its like they try to out do you. To me it doesn't really matter. I could care less if someone has more money or a better home than me. If they want to try and get everything you have feel privileged. They must really look up to you!

I usse to have neighbors like that, if Imowed my yard so did they, if we planted flowers so did they, If we were out side doing something they had to come out and some times they would just act like they were doing something just so that they could hear what was going on. If we had someone come over as soon as they pulled up in the driveway they would come out side to see who it was. thank God they have moved out.

That person has a problem! Why in the world would you want to copy someone else. I want to be my own peron not copy someones else! I do have a friend who loved my new car and went out and bought the same brand of car but she has not copied anything else.
