my friend got flowers--why am I so upset??

My neighbor is in a new relationship, and today I noticed that she received a HUGE vase of gorgeous yellow flowers on her doorstep from her new boyfriend. I am so angry, and I can't figure out why!! I am happily married to the sweetest guy who I love sooo much, so why am I so pissed that she got flowers??? Arrgg!

    Because you didn't. It's normal to desire what others have as long as you don't take it too far. Try to just be happy for your friend and soon that feeling will pass. Your husband probably isn't in that stage of buying you flowers anymore and you miss it. Why don't you go and get some flowers for yourself as a pick me up?

    Could be your a little jealous that her new guy was thoughtful enough to send flowers and your forgetful husband hasn't brought any in a long time ??

    Its one thing to get something on a special day we come to expect it...providing hubby is on the ball and remembers a special day. But a gift or flowers for no reason is really special... says I LOVE YOU your special to me.

    Being a girl sucks. We just feel jealous for no good reason. Send yourself some flowers, there is no rule that says you can buy beautiful flowers for yourself.

    Maybe because your husband hasn't done anything nice or bought you flowers in awhile. Maybe your jealious that her just a boyfriend it giving her better gifts than your own husband is

    Envious that she's recieving things and you're not anymore. Maybe you never recieved a large bouquet of flowers actually. Maybe you did, but it seems crappy you don't get them anymore. Calm yourself down and be happy FOR her.

    Do I sense a bit of jealousy? Maybe your husband havn;t done things such as that for you, and that's what's up setting you...
