Whenever people talk about how other people are attractive, tall, good singer, etc. I get mad because they arent talking about me. I know im not the most attractive guy (But Im definitely not ugly) but i just boil up inside when people swoon over other people. Even when I watch little kids with amazing talents, I get mad because those kids are not me. Is that normal?
Here's what to do: buy seven full length mirrors. Mount them on walls all over your house. Take a ball-peen hammer and run through the house smashing mirrors and screaming, "Dick Cheney, where are you now that I need you!!"
Then sit down in the back of your closet and refuse to talk to anyone for 5.6 weeks.
yes it's normal.
and yes you are arrogant, and to add to it, envious as well!
You are just jealous of who ever people admire upon.
Why don't you try being better than average eh?
Like if your mom says empty the bin. You empty it, but to be better than average. You need to put another black bag in the bin for reuse.
Or another example, type a letter on a computer. Sure you finished typing the letter, but to be better than average. You need to make sure the layout is fine and make use of appalling fonts.
I'm not saying you should try and be the best all the time, because I freaking hate that and it's annoying. Just do better than normal things.
Learn to face the fact that someone is better than you.
Why the hell should you feel arrogant or jealous if I say I like Jet Li? Do you want to be like him? waking up early in the morning, studying martial arts 24/7, sacrificing half of your life towards martial arts?
Why on earth do you expect to be the centre of everything - sounds pretty desperate to me.
i'm totally the same. i always get so mad when i see those TV specials about the super-talented kids too haha. i just think we're ambitious. some people may call us arrogant, but i think we just enjoy attention more than the average person(:
you're not arrogant.. you might be a bit Histrionic.. or at least have some of the tendencies of it.
I used to get that. But I grew out of it because I realized they're better than me at a certain thing and I'm okay with that because I have talents too. You're just insecure.
It's normal. But look at it this way, when your not around how many people are complementing you and saying nice things about you to other people? Perhaps more than you think.
So, don't waste time worrying - just make sure you complement other people too.
it's kind of awkward too swoon so much over someone to their face, and maybe they dont want to embarasse you. I bet behind your back there are ppl saying "look at that cutie" and "check out that ass" hehe. Just think about that and try joining in the conversation! People gossip and talk smack about ppl way more often then complimenting and good talking them, Just be happy to be surrounded by such nice ppl who actually acknowledge others talents and skills!
It is just envy. We all get it. Some more than others. I find that when I focus on my goals and talents and strive to perfect them, I can appreciate others more for theirs. When I am in a funk and know I am sucking at life, that is when I get envious of others.
honestly, i think i am like that as well.
i never get angry or "boil up" but i do get uncomfortable around people who possess more beauty, grace, talent, charm, especially when they get more attention then me. its normal, but its not really healthy or fair to you.
try to be more humble, pride yourself on your good qualities but dont forget that just because someone else is getting complimented its not an insult to you.
