The X factor: Why women are their own worst enemies

‘Women are their worst enemies’ is a common phrase in modern society both verbally and practically. In fact, a good percentage of women prefer to have male confidants terming their fellow women as petty and dramatic.

Sometimes a lady walks into a room and some other ladies in the room start to hate for no reason. They make rude remarks, give icy stares that would make the newcomer almost bury herself if she has no self-confidence.

The female folks are judgmental to one another and they are less likely to become friends with someone who could be perceived as a sexual rival.

The funny thing is that despite all the drama men create in women’s lives and or the amount of hurt or abuse they cause, the women keep loving them. They’d rather hate a fellow woman, who has done nothing to them. Such hatred is not necessarily triggered by something wrong the woman being hated has done. It comes out naturally, due to small obvious reasons. Women need to understand more of their nature that leads to this rivalry.

Jealousy

Most women like to have attention focused on them. If there’s something taking it away from them, especially another woman, then she gets a little intimidated and typically starts to hate. Some women would hate you, if they think you’re prettier than them. Your mere presence makes them feel like ugly. If your dress looks prettier, they would hate. If they are single, they will see you as the competition. If they are married, they will see you as the seductive temptress trying to steal their man away.

It’s in a woman’s nature to be jealous of another women but a woman who knows her true self-worth can never be jealous of another. Not every woman has the habit of hating other women.

Inferiority complex

No one wants to be a lesser being, especially when it comes to women. Some ladies start to feel inferior when others are showered compliments and they are not. They start to hate the lady who received the compliment as if it was her fault. If another lady commands respect and they don’t they begin to hate.

Pride

Some women have a little too much pride within themselves and therefore cannot like anyone who they perceive is better than them. It’s okay to have a lot of self-esteem but a lot of women confuse it with pride.

Insecurity

Women judge other women according to their insecurities and what makes them feel better about themselves. They feel threatened by other women’s confidence.

For women to realize their worth they should not compare themselves to another woman’s beauty or confidence, because it gives reasons to hate every woman you meet. Every woman should be proud of who they are and their appearance.
