why we need to compare with others?
When i was a child, my father always said to me: If you want to go to good high school, you should study hard in these comfortable enviroment, you see, you neighbour got first in this exam.
When i worked in the society, my father said: If you want to live rich, you need find a good job which has a high salary, you see, she has bought a house.
When i fall in love with someone who is poor, my father said: If you want to happiness, you need to seek someone who is fit with you, you see, she married a hospital dean.....
I feel so tired, why we need to compare with others always? Can i do back myself?

"Can i do back myself?" <== I'm not sure what you tried to say here but I can suggest you the following: Can't I just be myself?

Your father now just wants you not to get pregnant from a guy who will run away.
That's good. Because some guys don't control their lives.
Get higher education, get a good job, and believe me, most of the questions and demands of your father would seem naive to you.

This an excerpt from the poem 'Desiderata'
"If you compare yourself with others,
you may become vain or bitter,
for always there will be greater and lesser persons than yourself."
