It’s not easy being green with envy. It’s even harder when the person inviting the wrath of your green-eyed monster is your partner.
Turns out it’s a slippery slope from admiration, emulation, and pride to malicious behavior.

If comparison is the thief of joy, then envy is the little green goblin of grudgingness.
