Sometimes People Are Just Into Themselves

This is becoming one of my Major pet peeves. People who are always bragging on themselves. No one else can compare, or is better than them, and you better not even try to compare yourself. And if your work is not as Good or not to their quality and likings they even will make sure everyone knows. Over a yr ago I started painting rocks and hiding them around my town. Even though I was sort of embarrased at first to let people see my stuff, I still went around hiding some I had painted. I guess since I was new people either took because I was new, or took to rehide again later. Was recently at a rock trading Picnic where there was food and trading rocks. I knew some of the rockers were better than me, but that I thought would be OK. But when it got down to it at the end, and only about 6 of my rocks were traded or wanted to be traded out of 30, and even heard comments her rocks are not good enough to want to have, it left me feeling a little upset. Almost to the point I am glad there are others, and other groups that enjoy finding my rocks, and gladly would trade or accept one. But seriously so into yourself that you only want certain rocks, and acting like you are better than everyone else. Some of the actions and sayings on the way they treat you reminds me of Kindergarten and school where no one wants to play with you and treats you Bad. I know one thing, none of them are ones who would treat everyone as equals. So what if you have a Huge house, or make more $$ than me. So what if I am not in your upper regimine and live in your ritzy neighborhood. Money is just money and you can't take it with you. But it is quickly becoming Games with some people when it comes to rock painting and trading, and these are the type of people and events I have no time and use for, and they can keep their high and mighty thoughts to themselves. Am I alone when it comes to people like this? ~~TINA~~

I live in your world, people telling me I cant but I do. People telling me its a mans world but I do it anyways and I am all woman. People telling me I am not educated enough but I beat them in a court of law. Raise up your head and be you, you are stronger than they can or will ever be. Trust me I know I live this.

You certainly are not alone in this and remember anyone who does this is not a Godly person. They are not loving their neighbor as themselves. Sorry they are so dang snooty there Tina.

So True, and unfortunately the other person is usually the one hurting in the end.

No your are not alone, too many are like this, they brag all the time. They have a bigger house, their kids are all highly paid professionals married to beautiful girls and what they do is always perfect. What to say, just move on and forget about those people.

That is my New plan for 2019, and just hope one of these days nothing happens for them that makes them wish they would have treated people differently

No, you're not alone. I was often left out in school, and even at the last class reunion a couple years ago, the person who used to be my best friend wouldn't even talk to me. I wasn't in her league. I'm sorry you were snubbed because of your rocks. I'm sure they were good.

@just4him People just sometimes can be so heartless. That is Crazy that people did not even want to talk to you. Because you're a Christian and a Writer?

If someone thinks you are not in their league you are the better person because of their actions. @just4him.

Excessive bragging is a sign of insecurity,

For sure, and even if it is because I am Married and not Gay Lesbian or Bi should not make me any less to someone else as well

Yep, and there are a couple like that on mylot too. One is very nice, and one is not..but I just think it stems from insecurity to be honest.

That could be, and Yes, there are those like that here for sure. Just would be nice if more would think about what if that was me instead.

Reminds me of what I said before I sang a song for the 2018 Camp Mountain High 'Talent Show': "I know that every one of you are amazing, but I ... only I am me, so when it comes to 'help I need' or 'friendship I want' or whatever, I believe it's more-important for ME than it is for ANYBODY ELSE you could give it to ... I'm kind of a snob... "But the fact of the matter is: EVERYBODY is more-important-to-themselves than anyone else (only-you can possibly be ... "you"). So--while the people I need to 'help me' or 'hang out with me' are busy taking care of 'things that are more-important TO THEM--I can only think of some advice Our Brother gave (with His Life) ... (this song)

Yes so True and that is why from now on I am going to be a little more cautious in who I get to know and what I tell someone, and if they are not interested in me move on

I am at the point in my life where I could care less what someone else thinks of me and my talent. Do what you do for the love of it and don't let these snobs discourage you. In God's eyes, we are all equal.

I always stay away from events because of people like that. You are so right you can not take it with you.

Yes it is getting to the point I get leary around a lot of other people who might want to judge too much. Ran into enough of them last yr.

For sure, and one day when they are having issues and no one wants to like them maybe then they will think back?

Oh yes, you said well. Some people are only into themselves, bragging all the time. But I wanna tell you a very practical incident that happened to me. One of my uncle used to boast a lot about his family, his children, their studies and his life.. And looked down on my family.. See what happened then as Lord watches everything, his children suffered in their studies, and that family suffered alot because of their bragging behaviour and looking down on others.. God watches everything and treat everyone equally
