feeling like a "hater" after evaluations... am i the only one?
results came out today and my bestie got #1. i’m happy for her, but i also felt that weird, bitter sting in my chest. i felt so fake smiling while secretly being jealous.
i was spiraling until i read the Star Bank Daeppang column about "healthy mindsets." it made me realize that being a real star is about having the character to celebrate others even when u feel low.
jealousy is a literal soul-sucker, so i just bought her a latte and we’re good now. fixing my attitude felt like a bigger win than any rank tbh.
how do u guys deal with the "green-eyed monster" during evals? let's stay healthy together fam.
The fact that u bought her a latte instead of staying bitter shows u literally have the best heart. Character > Rank, always. You’re definitely gonna make it with that mindset!!
That 'bitter sting' is so real, but buying her a latte was such a Class A move.
I totally feel you. 😭 When my friend got the 'Center' part instead of me, I cried in the bathroom. But then I realized: her success isn't my failure. We're both just on different pages of the same book. Stay strong!
