I'm a female in my early twenties. My brother-in-law has a wife, who he married last year. I was jealous of everytime he was in a serious relationship. Now, he's married, I'm even more jealous. Now he's having his second child with his wife, whom I'm not comfortable accepting yet. My husband and I are also planning to have a child as well, but I am not pregnant with my second child yet. Sometimes I hate it when people do better than me. Especially people I don't like. My brother-in-law doesn't really talk to me and his wife I don't really like, yet I have to learn to accept her. Is it normal to be jealous of other people's good news? I'm acting like my brother-in-law is my blood brother, or something. I also came from a small family where I was always put first, and when someone has good news that happens to them, then it's not all about me anymore. Does the way I was raised have something to do with this? I love it best when I was the ONLY daughter-in-law in the family.

hey. yes i agree it could be that the way you are raised cause you to be jealous of them but it's okay it's normal...i mean yeah you were always put first and now you are not getting any attention but it doesnt make them better then you either. just because they have their second child doesnt mean you wont have one soon...and think of it this way...if you dont like them then who cares about them...you are great and compare to them there is no competition...you just want to take things slow and give it some time before you get pregnant again...no worries and like what they said they will be jealous of you too...but as for now just because your not pregnant make them be jealous of you in a different field. tis' alright to feel how you are. i hope i helped. Take Care! x3 SweetStar.
