why can't others be happy for other people's bliss? The more you get better, the more their willingness to bring you down. It's just so unfair

Because they are jealous and don't have the ability to become as you are. And so, they don't like someone to be superior to themselves because they feel that it may threaten them. Especially for those people who are around you, they have more possibility to feel threatened because you are better.

It really happens in our country, colonial mentality of a person can never be avoided since our country's are full of such type of person's. Crab mentality even happen's in our history. Even in our goverment, business, tv station, artists. I guess people can never live without doing such act since they had this greediness in them.I guess there doing it for survival especially in business . Most of them uses such dirty tactics for business to prosper.

Prospering at the expense of stepping on other people's back. It is indeed a dirty tactic.

Some people can, other's can't. It depends how selfish and insecure one is.

It's just that...jealousy. People who are unhappy with their own lives will often find a way to bring everyone else down. It's not fair, but then again, nothing in life is fair.

Yes, they are unhappy people. They should focus on their lives first so that they can get even, the "fairest" way possible

Yes, I can't understand why there are people like that in the world. Those are the ones I guess we need to stay away from.

I agree. That is why I am keeping my distance to them now.
