How do I stop feeling jealous of people who seem to have lots of friends?
Identity & Self-Worth
Friend jealousy is natural but often based on incomplete information; focus on building your own connections rather than comparing to others.
Feeling jealous of others' apparent social success is natural but often based on incomplete information. Social media and public appearances don't show the full picture of people's Interpersonal relationship - they might have many acquaintances but few close friends, or their Interpersonal relationship might be more superficial than they appear. Instead of comparing, focus your energy on building the types of connections you want. Remember that quality matters more than quantity, and everyone's social needs are different.
