Competition

I think two of my greater weaknesses are jealousy and competitiveness. Jealousy is never good, it makes you feel bad about yourself and bad towards others, but sometimes competition can be healthy. Sometimes. Probably not when you're only at 7 appointments when your neighbor makes her 10th and you begin to wonder what's wrong with you. The good news is I ended the night with 11 so I still got a candy bar. The other good news is she's quitting next month. I wish my competition in dating would also quit, but maybe instead I should try to do better and be better myself. Only in the case of setting appointments, we're not competing for individual clients. We call whoever appears on the screen. In the world of dating, most of us are interested in the same guys, which makes it seem okay when you feel bad about yourself for not setting appointments (dates) with them. Especially when your neighbor does.
