[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The frenemies comment is on point. I have a recent graduate of Sidwell and a couple of acquaintances who are deeply striving but work hard to pretend they are not. It's amusing to feel their envy. NOTE I am not suggesting envy is widespread or that Sidwell > all other schools -- just that these two women clearly wish their same-age kids could've attended a school like Sidwell, if only they had the money at the time and their kids would be admitted. [/quote] How do you know that's what they're thinking? You can read their mind? They may not be striving at all or envy you. You could be projecting this perceived behavior onto them because it is a reflection of YOUR own behavior and desire to think you are "superior" to them. What a damaged adult to walk around thinking that others secretly envy you. [/quote]
