Money. I also happen to have end stage cancer. No one is willing to trade so far.

Money, but hard medical issues.
You really do not know what is going on behind closed doors.

Dd age 18 is amazing so I imagine people are jealous but probably they think otherwise I’m not jealous because my overall my life is a complete mess.

I'm skinny.

But I'm skinny because I have chronic health issues, I am in pain so often. And being skinny has also contributed to significant infertility etc.

If anyone thinks it is worth it, let me know.

I’m remarried with a hard working and caring husband and we’re not in debt bh. I have a rewarding career.

They don’t know I pay my thousands in child support to my ex husband because we have 50/50 custody and he makes less so he can demand it in NY-the big tzaddik rabbi that he is. And he chooses to just barely stay employed over minimum wage. I work full time and never make more money because he chooses not to better himself and keep making beans.

They don’t know I have CPTSD, generalized anxiety disorder, and major depressive disorder and am on Prozac. I’m so traumatized in my community with my abusive ex husband and his sympathizers or folks (including communal leadership) playing the neutral card or sympathizer card that I stay home unless I’m at work.

I love Hashem, Torah, Yiddishkeit…I hate communal aspects of it all.

On the outside I have an amazing husband who learns and people ask him questions all the time. and a gorgeous 2 year old.
Inside I had a really hard time having him and my husband has a temper you have never seen.

We moved and didn’t sell our old home, we rent it out. People think we’re wealthy cuz we’re low 30s with 2 home, truth is we’re struggling to get by. Have a ton of student debt (over $250k) we can hold love to sell but it keeps sitting every time we list it so we put tenants back in ..

We have cleaning help every weekday for 4-5 hours. House is spotless when it's not the weekend. What you don't see is both me and dh have adhd and dh also has a chronic illness. We simply cannot manage with less help.

I don’t have one thing in particular that people are jealous of. I have a SIL that’s jealous of my incredible husband, a classmate that’s jealous that I mostly have a happy life, another SIL who is jealous of how much we travel, an ex- friend who was actually jealous that (at that point in life) my life was worse than hers. She wanted to be the biggest victim.

But I’ve got my hardships too. I have terrible anxiety. I have a baby with medical issues and gives me less sleep than other babies her age. My DH is a wonderful husband and father but we’re so exhausted from our baby I’ve only kissed him once in the last week. He’s more snappy and we fight over dumb stuff which we never used to do. I come from a pretty dysfunctional home. We are broke because we’re too drained to work when we aren’t running to doctors and hospitals for my baby

What I’m jealous of;
Moms who can get more sleep than me, can go back to work after 3 months pp, have time to cook and clean or at least afford cleaning help. I’m jealous of people that have time to spend with their spouses

Money... nice house.... new car

I am overweight. My husband was abusive and continues to be extremely challenging to be married to. Very small family size.

People ask me how I’m so happy on the outside. They always ask how am I so happy all the time. Truth is I’m the biggest emotional and sensitive person you’ll ever meet. BhBh HaShem gave me a wonderful husband to be my rock and gave me an amazing brother- yes I have a few, but this one in particular who helps me out a ton.
