confident or arrogant

I like very confident men, bordering with arrogant (when needed).

hi steve
sorry but nope' my thoughts on that would differ but thats just me

I could of phrased it better I think.

Arrogance is the lack of humility.

Nice pic itchy lol. And please share your opinion.

I think people who are arrogant, speak with a sharp tongue. They feel superior to everyone else and show that attitude thinking it appears as intelligence when in fact, it's sarcasism.

Confident people speak to a peple with respect because they don't have to prove anything. They believe in themselves and have nothing to prove.

Montecito, they are humble.

I admit I am outspoken here but not so much in person. Here I'm sharing thoughts I don't express verbally to often. And I can be over confident but that's because I believe in myself.

Glen, I think when we say we are not arrogant people assume we are lol. I had in my profile how I want a woman who is secure because I've had women get jealous because they tell me I'm too good looking. I really don't think I'm special but I've had these issues all my life so its important to me to find someone to accept me and not let that emotion cause issues.

anyway i better get this work done.

ahh thanks steve like your picture too
re read your opening post again and my apologies, what you say does seem to make sense dispite your kinda speaking in riddles or so me thinks LACKING means you dont have it, does it not??? but we all do, if we choose to use it or use it not then is that not another thing??? caring i mean....
wanting to be heard is not the same thing as if someone has confidence or not... just my opinion

steve Im' glad you posted this.Its a good question.I want to see how the ladies respond to this.We know they like confidence.Where is the line in the sand? Hopefully,you'll get plenty of responses for us guys to read.

well rest assured steve i am one woman that will not ever be jealous of you you may think your blessed in the good looks department but sweetheart, your looks dont even come close to mine so eat your heart out pal

Brip I know you are waiting the the ladies take on this, but confidence is an admirable quality. The line between the two???? ATTITUDE

A man walks into a exclusive car showroom, in shorts, sandals and a t-shirt. The young sales rep watches him for a while as he peers at the various models on the floor. Eventually he walks up to him and informs him that he would have to leave the showroom as he is creating a bad impression, and these vehicles would not be in his price range.
As the older gentleman walks away, another rep sees him and aprroaches to ask if he could help.
A shortwhile later, the older gentleman leaves the showroom, the proud new owner of one of the top models on the showroom floor. It turned out that he was a multi-millionaire.

Because the older gentleman was confident enough in who he was, he felt no reason to pander to other peoples image of what he should be or should look like. The young man's arrogance and preconceived ideas, cost him a hefty commission.




Steve, if I had to define the two, I would probably put it pretty much the same way you have. Arrogance, is not a pretty sight, I tend to avoid people who exhibit that trait.
While I welcome confidence in any body, and encourage it in those around me.

...me speechless!

Theres a big difference between confidence and arrogance.
Arrogance is when the person is down right mean and thinks they are better than everyone.

Confidence is when you feel good about yourself and you can also treat others nice.

I consider myself to be very confident but I not only stand up for myself I also am concerned about other people's rights and well being.
Someone who is arrogant would ONLY be concerned about their own needs.

I think Ignorence showes who is confident ore arrogant...

Well put Baltus

Thank`s Coffee.

gray area. Adjust to the environment,,,the surroundings.

I still say being humble is the difference.

A confident man wouldn't rub the commission in the salemans face. That is arrogance. A confident man will know the other salesman will do it for him.

We're in agreement

OK a confident man is NICE / an arrogant man is inconsiderate and NOT NICE

Arrogant people usually weak inside, and arrogant is obvious the opposite of confident. For me, humble is one of the reflection of confident.

I think that arrogance is the fake confidence. When a person who doesn't have real confidence wants to pretend that (s)he is confident, then we get an arrogant person.

Fox, its hard not to know when people keep telling you all the time.

But even then i still struggle with self confidence at times. I also have always wished i was just average. Being considered good looking has its own set of issues to deal with.

Its hard to find someone who won't be jealous of you for example. I think average people have it easier in life. Less expectations are put on them.

I can also be arrogant at times but that's not the norm nor is lacking in confidence.
