hurray.. I am with you 100% on this. Good explanation...How do you handle this though? What is a good way to let them know of this situation without hurting their feelings? It is generally the norm there to look at some one else and try to get 'more' even if you are not really sure what you do with that extra 'more'. You are 100% right that it only leads to unhappiness as you will never feel content with what you already have and only seek to get more. My general philosophy in life is not to tread on that very path that is the root of unhappiness but things like this tend to add so much turmoil and a good solution seems far away. Revival
