This is something I never thought about until today but wow I am jealous of some girls. Not just that they are real but their confidence and looks and I know I will never look as good as them.
I also find myself strongly wanting to be fictional heroines.

I'm feeling a little silly about this because I never had any male idols before my realisation.

How many others think/have thought like this?

I think most woman are jealous of other woman. We all want to look better .

I get jealous of other women who are tall and have long legs. And I get jealous of people in general who have normal eye and skin color.  I think it's human nature to be jealous of things we can't change.

I have this a lot of times and it's this very frustrating situation when I know that it's not possible but I still want to be like a girl I see somewhere.

A few weeks ago I was coming home from work and there was this girl waiting for the lights to go green, and I just couldn't stop staring at her. I felt so bad.

She was petite, her body was tight and she had good proportions, her face, hair and eyes were cute too. She wore a simple black dress with high heels and she looked confident and smart. She looked exactly like the girl I would like to be.

The most painful thing was that I knew that even if I do everything right I will only look like her bigger sister with a lot more flaws.
I only saw her for a few minutes but I think I would have accepted it in a second if somebody would have offered to turn me into her.

I too envy beautiful women.  I always have.

I won't ever have a body like them, but mine is not bad considering what I had to work with.  I don't want to attract unwanted attention, so I try to dress in a way that is age-appropriate.  That means that I do not wear really short skirts, even though I love the look.  But I have found a place that sells fashionable high-end second-hand clothes at insanely reasonable prices, so I can rock my look.  I know I look good when I am in town.  That makes me happy.

I think my envy is turning into simple admiration.  I don't need to look like them when I can be me.

I've only felt like that just my whole life! 

The other day we got a swimwear catalog in the mail from Venus. At first I was just looking at the suits, then the "I wish I could wear that". Then the realization of how every model has perfect curves. So yes definately feel the same.

phew! I'm normal!

This is happening to me every single time I go out now.

Don't get too excited -- they photoshop the heck out of those swimsuit models.  Some of those girls are wearing more duct tape than a worn out race car.  Be happy knowing that those women are no more perfect than we are.

Summer is never long enough.  Order swimsuits, wear them and enjoy life!

crikey yes!!

Google celebs without makeup and dont be fooled by the photos where they clearly have basic makeup on.
They look same as any other girl. face lines, tired eyes, limp hair.

what they do have are world class makeup artists and computers to fix them.
Its not real

I get so jealous of how pretty women look I,ve stopped watching TV & very rarely go out doors. Sara

Ahhh.. the famous Venus catalog One of my favorite online retailers. I should ask work to direct deposit parts of my paycheck there...

I am a bit more realistic, I know that catalogs and professional photos are somewhat far away from the real world. But i also do have a lot of envy for other women looks. From the body shape, slim shoulders, nice hair, breast size. I came to the realization while I may be able to get a bit closer, I have my limitations...

I don't feel jealous of or want to be ANYone else. Not because I'm the prettiest, smartest, or most successful girl in the world. Plenty of girls have a lot more going for them than I do. But if I was them, I wouldn't be ME. I wouldn't have the friends or the family I have. I wouldn't have the memories I have. The people who love me wouldn't love me, the people who once did, never would have.

So despite the imperfections, despite the fact things could be better, I never feel even a moments jealousy or desire to be anyone else. Others may make me want to change and improve my life...but I wouldn't trade it for the world.

Yayo you have an awesome viewpoint on this - you really do.
 
Now I am jealous of your point of view.  Ugh I just did it again.

If I were them, I would still be me.  So, yes, if I could be them, I would.

I have always envied other women.  My (cis) wife does it, too.  We envy each others' attributes, too.  Sometimes it makes me crazy, though, I admit it.

I myself do sometimes evny women , but its just cause I think her shoes are super hawt!

I used to think to myself that I do wish I had bigger boobies or thighs that made me feel more in proportion to my shoulders and then I think that but she isn't me and she could never be. Yeah she might be beautiful and yeah I wish that I could be that but I am me.

People know me for me and I'm happy that I got to be me. Yeah it has been super tough sometimes and I know that the girl I saw walking down the street is striking as hell, she too has things going on in her life. But we are all unique and have our own beauty traits about us.

We are unique and  people find different things interesting. And perhaps she might've thought that she wanted to look like you. Just a thought to keep in mind we look at people but they look at us too.

I guess that was my two cents worth 🙊

It is really common. I look so longingly so etimes they might mistake it for liust if they cat h my glances.

It is really quite lonely an experience when you have noone you love accept that reality

I'm jealous of people who don't get jealous.
