Dear Neverdyed:

You wrote regarding your mother: “I’ve held the belief that she’s jealous of me”. Dictionary. com defines jealously as “a feeling or state of resentment, bitterness, or hostility toward someone because they have something that you don’t”-

– this means that (1) your mother is angry at you (the meanings of the words resentment, bitterness and hostility all involve anger), and that (2) she believes that you have something that she does not have. What may it be, that she believes that you have that she does not have?
