Innate Desire to Compare with Others?

hello! is it just me or is there this innate feeling of wanting to make yourself/others worse? Like I have a platform of 50 people with ED'S and my gut response was "what was your lowest weight?" but like- idk if I actually wanna know because I know my noggin would watch and compare with every response. anyway, hope your all having a good day.
