Little Green Monsters

I'm a jealous guy, not sure if I've admitted it before on here, I probably have, but I'm too lazy to search back and know for sure. But I'll admit it again now, I'm a jealous guy. Very jealous. It doesn't always show too often, I'm not proud of my jealousy, so I conceal it, let it eat me away inside, you know, the healthy stuff. :)

One of the flaws picked up from my overly "fair" mother is my desire for fairness. Don't give me the same job as someone else, and then pay me less. I will find a way to even things out, I'm a master at that.

Of course, where the jealousy kicks in is in relationships, and my desire for fairness in them. For some silly reason I take it personally if I'm not treated like everyone before me. If the last guy was greated at the door with his pipe and slippers, damnit, I want to be greated at the door with my pipe and slippers too. And if you wiped the last guy's butt, damnit, I need mine wiped too, I don't care if he was in a coma, equality is key!

I know we do different things for different people and each situation has different contributing factors, but in the world in my head sometimes, I fail to see the difference.

And that my friends, is one of my few flaws. And I do mean few.
