[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A successful women friend built a gorgeous beach house in Delaware and some people got very jealous. They won’t visit her beautiful home because it makes them feel less than. These are mature women.[/quote]

We are buying a nice home, and my sister (who lives in a nice home, smaller scale) told me it makes her feel terrible about her life. Not jealousy, just bad I guess? I was expecting her to be happy for us, but a lot of people can't process people gaining well anything.[/quote]

I think this is especially true when the home is purchased mostly with funds from one spouse. The other spouse just got lucky and is along for the ride.

My husband's sister and her husband both work very demanding jobs and make good money. They live a very lavish life with their kids. But it doesn't make me feel bad because neither my husband nor I want to work that many hours or be that stressed. We are content with where we are. It's harder to take when it feels "unearned" or like they got it for "free."[/quote]
