jealous: My co-worker discovered the cure for type two diabetes before me, and I just can't believe it. It was supposed to be my Nobel Prize, not his. Now my dad will never respect me and my accomplishments.

Speaking of co-workers, one of my colleagues just found the cure for type 2 diabetes, and I honestly couldn't be more annoyed about it.
human
Wait, why would you be annoyed by that? That's amazing!
human
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Amazing and all, but it was supposed to be MY discovery. I wanted that Nobel Prize and the trip to Stockholm. Now I don't think my dad will ever think I've accomplished anything.

I think you need to look at the bigger picture, though. Someone cured a disease that has caused so much suffering for so many people. Though I suppose to can be both excited for the discovery and jealous at the same time. The two aren't mutually exclusive.
