i get so jealous sometimes. i have been randomly browsing through young footballer profiles and i just get so jealous of them that I look at mylife andthink what a shambles.


jealousy is human nature. I'm jealous of sooooo many people but you just have to get over it and be thankful for what you have in life.

Ahm...can we have some more info on yourself? Like, why do you feel that the lives of those guys are more worth living than yours? In the lack of more info, just randomly browse through your own life and try to pick out the happy moments, things that have gone as you wanted them to go and people who stand by you. It's never a shambles, only if you deliberately look at it like that. Instead of being jealous of others try to notice things people should be jealous of you for! You'll be surprised how many of those there are.

i never quite made football but i know people who have andthey are idolised the ones that made pro.

even the youth have a good life especially ifthey break in. if you break in to first team you have money, women and fame! ok may seem shallow but it's true and bloody rewarding.

Work harder to get yourself into a team?

Or just acknowledge that this won't be the life for you and try to focus on something else? Like uni, anything you're outstanding at? They might even be more rewarding than the lifestyle footballers lead.

i'mnot outstanding at anything. i live a dull life and not happy with myself as I have no real talent.

There's no need to be jealous, each person is different. If we were all footballers or WAGs (who make a ridiculous amount of money for jack ****), where would all the truly great people in the world be? Just accept who you are and discover your own potential, everything will fit together in time.
