Q&A with Dr. Lere
My real-life reactions to real-world conundrums.
Dear Dr. Lere,
My best friend at work just got a promotion. I want to be supportive, but inside I'm secretly seething. Part of me is happy for her. She's a wonderful person, works hard, and genuinely deserves the new position, but I wish I had been selected instead. I'm telling myself I shouldn't be envious, but I can't help it.
