Do you think if someone thinks they’re better than you and tries to push you around if you are openly rude to them it rattles them?

I feel like this woman thinks she’s better than me and can’t accept that I am far more than she’s pegged me to be.

If you have to constantly convince yourself that you're “far more” than she pegs you to be, then you’re the one who’s rattled. Acting out just proves she's winning a game she probably doesn't even know she's playing. Very passive aggressive of you by the way.

No offense, but you are the one that sounds 'rattled.'

[Asker]

Obviously it’s insulting

[Agape93]

Just a little

[Asker]

@Agape93 A little? It’s very insulting. Who the fuck are they to determine if they are better than me or not or try to evaluate my worth.

[Asker]

Also you have zero clue what this woman is like. She’ll give me unsolicited advice if I try to avoid her and send out a clear message I’m not interested in engaging she’ll purposely approach me and try to talk to me (happened multiple times) despite the boundaries that I’m setting.

She isn’t respecting the boundaries that I’m setting

[Agape93]

So yeah, you're rattled.

[Asker]

@Agape93 You’re acting like it’s wrong for me to react this way whereas if someone did the same thing to you you’d react the exact same way.

Maybe you don’t have any self respect but I do.
