And if our emotions can still be controlled, then, alas, we cannot influence the feelings of other people.

Why is it important to recognize the envious?

The people that surround us in many ways affect us.

The more negative emotions they direct towards us, the more negative becomes in our life.

If someone close only pretends that rejoices at your successes and achievements, but in fact just jealous, it is better to exclude such a person from your life or at least minimize communication with him.

The ability to recognize the envious will help prevent a number of unpleasant situations and reconsider your surroundings.

How does envy manifest?

How to find out what they envy you? There are common signs of envy. However, in how it is tested men and womenThere are some differences.

Men are more likely to envy career achievements and financial well-being. They are less emotional, so recognizing their envy is not so easy.

A jealous male can exclude communication with the object of his envy and do everything to not get any information about him.

He can also provoke this person, joke evil jokes, and can openly provoke him to physical conflict - this is determined by the character and temperament.

Women are not so straightforward, and their envy is expressed differently.

It may be different: gossip, caustic remarks, feigned indifference, and sometimes, on the contrary, subservience to the object of female envy. They also tend to weave intrigue.

How to understand that a person envies you?

How to recognize envy? Envy is manifested in all differently. Its main features are as follows:

  1. False joy. The envious person will strive to congratulate you on any achievement first. He can pour compliments that will immediately seem sincere.

    But when you leave the room, his tone will immediately change. Quite often, such individuals pretend and divert attention from their true feelings.

    The most effective method is to respond to them in the same way. Try to praise them and admire them. So they, probably, will raise a little a self-rating, and will begin to envy less.

  2. Depreciation. Regardless of the heights achieved themselves and the efforts made to this end, the envier will try to belittle all this. He can prove that all you have is just an accident or favorable circumstances. This is a very unpleasant manifestation of envy, and the higher your success, the more negative will be from the side of the envious. Therefore, it is better to remain modest, but in no case do not lose confidence that you deserve what you have.
  3. Exaggerating your success. Tormented by envy, a person will try to exalt his own success, which is especially pronounced when a stranger is celebrated. The explanation for this is simple - complexes.

    He is not confident enough and feels worse than others, and therefore he tries to measure himself with successes.

  4. Imitation of your behavior. Envious wants to be better than the object of envy. Or at least like him. He can imitate this person, for example, in speech or clothing. In this case, you can try to give him inspiration with your own example, and not just provoke envy.
  5. Competition. Envious people tend to compete, as they constantly want to feel superior. In this case, you can either accept the fight or abandon it. The second option, of course, is better. It is worth showing that you are not competing with them, and competition is inappropriate.
  6. The joy of failure. The envious person will be incredibly happy if you make the slightest mistake. He may not demonstrate it in any way, but at the same time he secretly feels joy at your failures. Your task in this case is to transfer failures correctly. Remind them that mistakes are a normal part of life and development. If you do not be upset, you will deprive them of pleasure.
  7. Gossip behind. Envious people will always find a reason and method to gossip behind your back, which, of course, can harm your reputation. In this case, it is better to directly confront them. Since they are not inclined to demonstrate willingness to conflict directly, you can seriously talk with them - this will disarm them, and this may be enough for them to think about their behavior or stop messing with them.
  8. Hatred. If a person in your environment hates you, without particularly hiding it, then know that the matter may be in simple envy. To fight this hard. It hardly makes sense to immediately try to build relationships.

    Optimally delete such a person from life, or at least minimize the conflict with him.

You can also recognize the envious person, if you learn a little sign language. The following manifestations speak about this bad feeling:

  1. Stretched feigned smile. With a sincere smile from a person, it involves not only the lips, but also the eyes. If the person smiles only with his mouth, one can speak of insincerity. Lips may be stretched, the corners of the mouth overly stretched. Also a pretended smile is often crooked, on one side.
  2. Pay attention to the eyes. The envious person can hide his eyes in every possible way: to squint them, cover them up, just take them to the side.
  3. Arms A person who is insincere with you may be around his mouth, as if he is subconsciously trying to cover him.
  4. Head often tilted to the side - it says about the curvature of thoughts.
  5. Suspicious "symptom" - closed posture with arms crossed on his chest. Even more openly about insincerity and the desire to hide something is indicated by a gesture when a man puts his hands in his pockets or behind his back.

    Another way to hide your hands is to clasp the elbow or the wrist of the second hand behind your back. This suggests that the person is trying in every way to control their emotions.

  6. You can pay attention to body slope. When a person is pleasant, we try to be as close as possible to him. If a person deviates from you, he is insincere in his attitude.
  7. It is possible to appreciate sincerity how a person changes the amplitude of movements and their freedom. If he is too constrained, he may be hiding his thoughts from you. Sudden changes are vividly visible in gestures and movements, therefore it is better to notice it in dynamics.

Of course, finding a gesture, you should not immediately see in the interlocutor of the fierce envious. But if you constantly notice several of them, then you can talk about a certain degree of insincerity.
