12 Secret Signs of Envy: How to Tell If Someone Envy You

Much has been written about dealing with feelings of envy and how to overcome this painful emotion.

However, not much has been written about how to tell if someone is envious of you.

Envy is everywhere and dealing with the detrimental, sometimes catastrophic, actions of people who envy you is no picnic.

We may not consciously recognize it, but envy is a universally dreaded emotion, and it has the potential to decimate individuals as well as societies.

(Think of large-scale political motivations that are only fueled by envy).

I don't mean to make this a political play, but just as an example of political movements fueled by envy, you can consider political parties appealing to the envious of a populace by promising to tax the rich and the poor more. less poor (or not taxing them at all).

Is it easy to tell when you're the target of envy?

Most people feel much more comfortable describing themselves as jealous rather than envious, even though most of the time what they really mean is that they feel envious.

Also, some people are extremely prone to envy.

These people are so secretly absorbed in emotion that much of their actions are silently fueled by it, and they spend their lives trying to avoid dealing with it.
