Friends Who Act Like They Are Better Than You

Just wanted to let you know you said buttfuck. lawl.

yup, I smell bitterness in the air.

:rofl::rofl:

I’ve run across people like that, but I would never consider any of them my friend. Some people are just way into themselves. I don’t mind my friends challenging me to be a better man though, because I know they’re coming from the right place. I know the people around me aren’t going to say something to get their ego off, but actually say it to keep me levelheaded and humble.

in the case of thewanderer, one of the worst posters on srk, the dude is better than him. ignore his advice, and continue failing.

Does it count?

  • Back in my High School years, there was this kid who used to hang out with us, and whenever someone, specifically myself, ended up doing extremely well in something, he’d be a punkass and bring up personal shit just to try and bring my morale down, and then later claimed to be the “best”.

Otherwise, yeah, I know people like that. You tell them to piss off, otherwise this sounds like the midget has the napoleon complex.

lol @ this thread name. What the fuck is next, girlfriends who act like they can do better than you?

if you mean sexually then your on to something

I never considered certain people who hang around my friends…my friends especially since they are bums with no purpose livin with moms.at certain times I question my friendship with the original friends…why keep in contact with these leech ass niggas?

“where da hoes at, I got da fiy ass weed for ya,”

I guess the flipside to conceited friends, are friends/family who are so depressed and fucked up in the head, that they’re jealous as hell of your life, even though you’re not a showoff at all. There’s a rift between me and a couple of my cousins who think I’ve had such a great and privileged life. These past 5 years have felt like purgatory to me, but they’re not convinced.

I’m pretty condescending to my friends, because I am better than them. If I wanted to, I could make them stop existing, they can’t do shit about it because they are imaginary. They know their place though. Although sometimes I worry that they talk to each other and are plotting against me. Its a foolish concern I know, I doubt there is any way their combined magic could match my awesome powers.

I’ve never had this problem with my friends. Most of my friends from high school, unfortunately, did not “make it” in the traditional sense of the word. Meaning, they did not obtain a high school degree or did not attend college afterwords. This is not an issue for me, as I do not think I am inherently better than them for doing so, it was just my path. I respect their path, so they respect mine. I did break off communication with some friends simply because I did not want to go down their path. You have to keep positive people around you.

I would say that you are who you are, if people don’t respect that, then they are not your friends. Sure they could give you some kind of advice if you need it (such as you are losing all of your friends/family/loved ones because of reckless behavior) but people don’t understand that it’s not up to THEM to CHANGE you. You are the only person that can change yourself, and you’ll do it when you WANT to. It would be irrational not to. If you’re happy though, with your life (you have a girlfriend, which means you go out enough) then fuck him. With friends like that, who needs enemies.

Listen to Social Distortion - Far Behind… Perfect song for this situation.

BROFIST

Strangely enough I stopped talking to my buddy from high school years ago cause he had the same condescending attitude.

One of my best friends doesn’t exactly think he’s better then me but he does somewhat look down on me for playing videogames so often in his words “they’re on the lowest end of the spectrum of entertainment” meanwhile he thinks every game is complete shit except oot and halo3 the latter of which he’s obsessed with:rofl:

He’s a pretty good guy but just not as accepting to me indulging in one of my favorite things as he should be, also all my relatives (especially my mom) and family friends including there parents look down on me for going to a SUNY school instead of an ivy league school.

I’ve had completely random people that I don’t know and have never talked to do this shit to multiple occasions. I don’t know if they were on serious uppers or what, but I hate this kind of person and I hope that I never share any of their negative qualities. I will never have true friends like this.

So it’s NYE and I don’t have plans. I send out a mass text to some contacts on my phone seeing what they are up to as well with probably connecting with some old contacts that I haven’t seen in a while. The result was one of them asking who I was since she lost all her contacts from her previous phone. I reintroduce myself and this is the reply I get:

I’m only going to say this once. We don’t share the same friends, social circles or lifestyles. I think you are too arrogant to notice that you’ve never been nice to me and I don’t like. Never really have. Please leave me alone.

My reply was:
“Thank you for your honesty. I apologize if I ever hurt or offended you in the past. I will leave you alone. Take care Sarah (not her real name).”

The arrogance I can understand because I can come off that way in real life. However hurting her, I’m just scouring through my head on what could I done “consistently” to have made her think I didn’t like her or treat her well. I know there are friends who are phoneys and act accordingly. If anything I really do appreciate the honesty because that’s one less friend/person to worry about keeping touch and at least I know where she stands concerning me. But in the spirit of the thread, I truly think this is the first instance of social exclusion that I’ve encountered. Like I respected her mainly because she was an old art school classmate but also because she was knowledgeable and talented. But I guess she was just too much of that for a lowly commoner such as me.

OC

first of most of you dont know what real friends are, they dont act like that.

second, there might be people who you (or i) hang out with that might act like that. but where im from most dont, cause unlike talking about the shit online they would really have their shit knocked out. nobody acts like that against me or most of the people i hang with. in all these years i can only think of 1 "friend who ttried to act lik that. i didnt even hit him. i only said wtf would you be able to do if id knock your ass out right now, piss on your face and proceed to fuck your girlfriend while your lying on the fucking floor. first & last time he did that.

ofcourse i wouldnt rape his girl like some sick fuck. but the first 2 id do, he knew enough to stfu, cause he knows whats good for him and what not. dont even remeber what he was bragging bout to be honest.

my best friend can be a dick. And by dick, I mean I’ve broken like 3 controllers by throwing them at a wall rather than his head. His stupid ability to make you rage quit in real life combined with the fact he’s 35 and lives at home still (and bitches about how other people have no money), make him one hell of a tough fucker to hang out with

fortunately, I’m one annoying fucktard to know as well lol

Wow does she ever sound like a cunt.

I know, right?

Then again, I’ve gotten responses like that before. Mainly because I come across as a condescending prick to people who are just meeting me. Usually, people will see me as being the dude who would give his last for a friend and probably be taken advantage of, but at the first, they somehow see me as being condescending. #KanyeShrug

normally i hate thread necromancy, but i <3 OC. ignore that bitch, she def sounds like a straight up cunt.

now, back on topic:

just requoting for emphasis. its been over a year later. have you done anything else with your life wanderer? probably not. your friend pwns you.

LOL @ OrangeCat up in here like Jesus and nobody says anything.

I’ve had similar things said to me, but I can be really annoying, so I’m pretty sure I did all the stuff they said I did. Even though I don’t remember any of them and hardly hanged out with the people who said it. :tup;

Also ROFL @ The Wanderer. Never even noticed this was his thread.
