Exactly. When one mixes in upbringing/cultural forces. Yeah. Your head gets screwed around, quick....
I struggle SOOO MUCH with this. It’s something I’ve brought up in therapy, though I don’t think I articulated it this well. I truly do not understand the difference between confidence and arrogance. I’m also hyper vigilant about any behavior that could be seen as at all narcissistic. He seemed confident.. I don’t want to be like him.. so confidence feels bad and wrong. There is so much that goes into these issues.
