Is it normal for my friends to be strangely jealous of me?

Hello. I am a blonde-haired, blue-eyed thin girl, who is also intelligent and flexible. (I hope I'm not sounding braggy :( just trying to get my point across!) I have multiple friends who love me, but some seem to be green with envy. One of my friends told me that she was trying to get more flexible than me by stretching every day, and a few others joked about dying my hair brown while I was sleeping, so I wouldn't be such a "looker." A few told me they were considering bleaching their hair. Sometimes when I talk about my hair and how annoying it is, I'll get dirty looks from my friends. If I even mention the words "blonde" or "strawberry blonde" (which I am) I get dirty looks and eye rolls from my all-brunette friends. One of them is an almost-blonde, but not quite. The ones who love me and don't care that I'm blonde are so sweet and supportive of me. My hair is also long, and I have a few friends with shorter hair, who are obviously envious. It makes me upset that I'm making my friends jealous.. Is this normal?

    I don't think they are strangely jealous I think they are competitive and your the competition. I think this is why I usually have more male friends than female friends I'm not very good at many things but the ones I am good at I'm really good at and other girls don't see the flaws. If they do see the flaws they usually make sure you know they noticed.

    Maybe try finding a new circle to hang out with? Also I think things get better as you get older. Good luck.

    If they get jealous of you then they're not real freinds

    None of them sound like friends to me. A friend is someone who is happy that their friend has good things in their life and doesn't find those good things to be any kind of threat. Dump these losers and go find people who will support you and cheer for your good fortune, just as you would for theirs.
