with me, it's less getting envious about people's happyness, more about the event.

example someone says to me I am going to a live music concert with a few friends.

my thoughts arn't, well, why are they happy and i'm not, it's more... they get to go to a music concert with friends, and even if I could leave my house, who would I go to a music concert with?

and it's the same with news.

when someone gives me good news, it's more like, well, good for them- not why are they happy and i'm not
