I wish I was him/her!

    Did you ever envy someone and wanted to be like them? Or are you satisfied with yourself and do not compare yourself to others?

    And the title should be, "I wish I were him/here".

    I envied other kids a lot while growing up. I envied them because I was always the one being picked on, and that my life was crap and their life was heaven compared to mine.

    I proudly say that I'm proud of myself. ^__^
    I'm contented with who and what I am right now.

    Sometimes. I also always wonder what it would be like to be someone else. And I wonder if there's an alternative universe where everyone is really the same person.

    Complicated to put into words.

    I'm pretty much jealous of everyone. If not them as a person, then it's over a certain trait or something they have in life.

    Yes. There was once a man whom captured my attention. I saw something in him that many others did not, and I strove to be like him. Eventually, I succeeded. Take a look at me a good five or six years ago and there are very few similarities.

    My life has been no picnic but I have never compared my life with anyone elses. There life could look all flowers and sunshine around everyone else when at home demons could be emerging from the floorboards.

    Sometimes I do. There were times when I wished I could be in another person's shoes just to see what like would be like if I were them. Other times was just because I felt like I didn't like how my life was going and that I'd rather be someone else because they seemed so much happier than I was at the time.

    I'm sure I've wished it at some point, but it was never a nagging dream of mine to ever be anyone else, in fact, it probably lasted less than a few minutes. I'm pretty happy with who I am, and while I may think from time to time that I would like a certain aspect of someone else's life, I would never want to be anyone else. At least... not for an extending period of time. I think there are certain people who it would be interesting to live as for a day, just to see what their whole life is really like.

    That's pretty much exactly my input right there.

    what azure said. it'd be cool to walk in someone else's shoes for a short period of time, just to see the world from a different perspective, but ultimately, i'd prefer to stay myself if i had the chance to change who i was inside and out forever.

    I can say i've never wished i was some, but i'm constantly wishing i'm like someone whether it be because they have more friends, more money, better looks or something as simple as having more peoples phone numbers.

    I try not to be jealous of other people, and most times I'm not. If I do get jealous of someone I either look for the positives in my life, or if I can't find those then the negatives in their life, until I feel better. You are what you make of life, if I'm jealous of somebody it means I haven't done enough to be in that person's shoes; generally I'm pretty content with myself.

    It's natural to wonder what it'd be like to be someone else, but I've never wished I could be someone else specifically. I simply tend to take the best traits of everyone I know and adopt it if I can.

    Naturally, if I want to be nasty, I can simply mirror someone who is a terrible person...they often end up driving themselves crazy when I do that. xD

    I've never wished I was someone else. Maybe, that I had some extra traits or would lose some of my current traits, but never as far as wishing I was a different person. Even if I did switch places with someone else, whilst I might be in a better situation, I'd still simultaneously lose some of my own positive traits, and gain different negative traits. Everyone has a problem of some sort.

    Nah, I've always been fully satisfied with who and what I am.

    Lol. That's a lie.

    But seriously, the only person I'm envious of right now in full is my self from 3 years ago and before. We have an entirely different life, pretty much.
