Jealousy – the mud that failure throws at success Every single one of you in this room, at some point in your life have been jealous of another human being. So what exactly is jealousy? What does it mean to you? Do you think it is a vice or a virtue? Jealousy in fact can be both a vice and a virtue, believe it or not… Jealousy is an emotion experienced by one who perceives the love, attention or affection that is being given to a 3 rd party, when it should rightfully… in their mind be given to them. For example, a jealous lover may dislike their partner spending time with members of the opposite sex, because they feel they are rightfully the sole recipient of their partner’s attention and although this sounds quite selfish, it is perfectly natural to feel this way.
Jealousy is taken to be synonymous with envy. It is defined to be a mourning which one entertains, at another’s well being due to a view that ones excellence is in consequence lessened. Its distinctive malice comes from the opposition it implies to the supreme virtue of charity. Jealousy comprises a form of the deadly sin envy, but implies a feeling of personal claim and the presence of a 3 rd party which is not present in envy. The word jealous stems from the French jalousie, formed from jaloux, further from low Latin zelosus (full of zeal), and also from the Greek word ardour zeal meaning to boil or ferment. Originally a condition of zealous emulation.

Jealousy is a combination of emotional reactions, including fear, anger, and anxiety. Studies have shown that men and women tend to feel jealous for different reasons; for instance, physical attractiveness in a perceived rival is more likely to incite jealousy in a woman than in a man. Everyone occasionally experiences normal jealousy… caring about anyone or anything means that one will become uncomfortable and anxious at the prospect of losing the desired person or object to another. My Best Friends Wedding is a classic example of how jealousy can effect and destroy a perfect relationship.
Julia Roberts and Dermot Mulroney cast as Jules and Micheal. Two best friends who slowly drift apart. Michael O’Neal and Julianne Potter were romantically involved in college, and after breaking up, they managed to remain close friends. For years, Julianne and Michael have had a pledge that if both were single when they turned 28, they would get married.
Shortly before her 28 th birthday, Julianne is mourning the sad state of her love life when she gets a call from Michael, who announces that he has very important news to tell her. Julianne is convinced that Michael is going to ask her to marry him, and she is crestfallen when he announces that he’s engaged to Kimmy Wallace played by Cameron Diaz. Kimmy seems like the perfect woman for Michael, she’s sweet, pretty, bright, and adores Michael, and her wealthy family is just as fond of him as she is. But now that Julianne has realized how much she loves Michael, she’s not about to give him up without a fight and isn’t afraid to fight dirty. Julianne’s uneasy ally in the battle for Michael’s affections is her friend and editor George Downes played by Rupert Everett a cheerfully out-of-the-closet homosexual who is not prepared when Julianne asks him to pose as her boyfriend. Now 4 days before Micheal and Kimmy’s wedding, Jules must come up with a plan to sabotage the wedding, and convince Micheal that she is the one for him, not Kimmy.

The part of the movie I am going to how you is where Jules confesses to Micheal all the moronic things she has done to try and split him and Kimmy up. On the synopsis sheet I handed out at the start of the tutorial there are six Quotes, statements and pieces which all have a strong connection with the topic of jealousy. Do any of you disagree with any of these quotes? Why do you believe it / they are inaccurate? Jealousy can be both a vice and a virtue, these limitations change only when the severity of the emotion is tampered with. Jealousy is not just a single emotion but instead a whole array of feelings bundled together. It is not wrong or immoral to feel this emotion, after all we are only human. Jealousy is only a vice when feelings become actions, and when actions go too far.
So be like the Matador if you wish, but remember jealousy does not compensate when it comes to succeeding in life.
