The complex is there when you feel that you are inferior to others which is most of the time imaginery. Very often it is because of what we have experienced when we were young. When a person thinks that he/she is not very beautiful or handsome as the case may be...or when a person thinks he is not very intelligent..when they think they cannot express themselves properly.

It will depend upon person to person. It is a matter of thinking and perception. I do not feel inferior or superior to anyone. I just come out, as I am. I try not to show any superiority complex to my juniors or colleagues. I treat others as I wish to be treated myself.

It is really great to know that you are down to earth, so am I. I do not try to boost and blow my own trumpet.

Of recent the only times that i have felt something like an inferiority complex would be because of certain values and ideals that i have seen in people. Values and ideals that i may have had difficulty in retaining or those that i continue to strive for.
Looks, education,pay,money....,these are all materialistic things, which may draw my attention for sometime but certainly have never given me a complex.

I would say neither of the situations you stated would make me suffer from inferiority complex.
1. ppl having huge standard of living: this would make me appreciate their fortune and hardwork
2. ppl who are more handsome or beautiful: they are fortunate and I would love to appreciate their beauty
3. ppl highly educated: I would look up to them and try to converse and enrich myself
4. ppl smart and highly paid: I would respect their hard work, sincerity and whatever it takes.
The point is, no where inferior thing comes in. I may not be the best but I know who am I. We should not underestimate ourselves and instead frowning on the crooked nose I have I would rather appreciate my beautiful eyes.
Happy living.

Inferiority is a childhood complex, breaking out in the coming ages is a real challenge..Inferiority complex are the real goals to achieve for me and i turned it in that way and i try to make it...stage fear, speaking out boldly, standing up in a crowd, taking calculated risk are the examples of my inferiority complex
