I'm not arrogant, I'm just better than you. It can't be helped.

Really, what is the difference between confidence and arrogance?

arrogant people have this habit of actually looking down on you, as in literally.

that or just dismissing you without thought cause you're not important enough. or just telling you that you're not important enough to talk to.

yeah thats not really confidence

What if you're actually not important enough to talk to and you just don't realise it?

imo confidence and arrogance are pretty much the same...

confidence - A feeling of assurance, especially of self-assurance.

arrogance - The state or quality of being arrogant; overbearing pride.

ok. *quirks eyebrow*

they're similar but arrogance is being over-confident to the point of being rude
How confident is over confident? How far from arrogant can you be until you are doubting yourself?!

when it gets to the point of looking down on people and being downright rude to them because you think they are below you...

kinda like on tv and in movies when the rich people tell someone that another person is below them..

Pride comes from self-assurance I think, so that confidence approaches arrogance as it appears in a greater magnitude.

I am right in assuming that you mean that when people think they are above others (when they are actually not) they are being arrogant?

What if the rich person was better than the other person? If they told them they were above the non rich person, would this then still be arrogance?

uh being rich doesn't make you better than anyone else.
