Your abusers just want your respect?

i think jealousy is an emotion that is motivated when someone doesn't want you to have whatever it is you own, could be the image/mind or things, they will get jealous over your own THOUGHTS or deeds or possessions.

envy = someone upset that you have or APPEAR to have MORE then them = weight

jealousy = someone not wanting you to have what you own at all = try to create "without"/desolation/destitute

sorry this is so old, here's the old paradox:
remember the Greek paradox about envy and jealousy. both were able to bless each other. they are both people, but one is jealousy and the other is envy. and a genie walks across their path and tells them they can have a wish after crossing into a new world, but the first one in will end up blessing the one behind with double portions. so, they both argue but decide that envy goes in first. envy realizes that jealousy will own twice the amount and decides to pull out one eye. jealousy thinks he's getting double portions, but ends up blind, b/c jealousy was left with double of envy. jealousy blinded by envy.

You would be interesting to meet in real life. However, it would be a frightening experience. 😆

How did you know I'm ugly? 😠

Seriously, when I was a kid, and my mom and sis would take pics at the mall, I would be filled with joy, until I saw myself. I would just think UNJUST, what happened here? My mom assured me that I was beautiful, and I repeated that to anyone at school that called me ugly..."my mom said..."

It would be very interesting to meet you as well. 🙂

(there, that solves the conflict of message boards having a purpose of gathering, which is a bit of a fuss in some circles, from what I read a couple of days ago).

Strange...uhm...what on earth could that mean?

Uhm, that adjective doesn't speak for itself, it's not a complete sentence. Strange.

So, I had to search the thesaurus to find possible interpretations for the word "Strange".

deviating

exotic

odd

abnormal

different

foreigner

non-conforming

unrealistic

secret(ive)

There's like 7 pages of possible root interpretations for the word "strange". Strange.

Are you abusing someone because you want their respect CC? Where is your empathy?

hug who me?

thesaurus is related to a field of CONCEPTs, if I want to expound on the concept, I will use a thesaurus for it (and dictionary), but mostly a thesaurus, obviously, the angle of "strange" could be seen as different or exotic, the list of words was to show that it really depends on HIS point of view, which he's entitled.

How do you explain people abusing babies then?

WAIT WAIT!!! I KNOW I KNOW!!!

Because they cry all night and keep you up so that you drag ass all day at work! 😠 😠 😠

Seriously, though, I love my little baby and though she frustrates me with her crying sometimes, I wouldn't trade her for ANYTHING in the whole wide world.

I've never been in a physically abusive relationship, though I've been in an envious, emotionally passive aggressive one, which is a form of abuse and control.

Well, envious..may that would mean that they didn't want you to do better or have "more" in either esteem (private thoughts of yourself) and/or material. Do you feel they were also motived to see you in a state of reduction (of esteem or material) in order to establish a dependency so that they can decide if you are now worthy of gifting back your self worth or material items? I've seen this done to myself and others.

I forgot to add, with the prespective on jealousy "jealousy = someone not wanting you to have what you own at all ", it would make sense why someone can look prettier then you or I, or have a nicer body or more in shape, but at the sametime, may not want that for you. It's odd so see a jealous hearted pretty woman/man but they are out there, and it's always a shock for some to understand this about someone who is so very pretty or celebrated.

i missed the 15 min timing, may = maybe

It is strange that you don't know the meaning of the word strange.
