Women have told me they find self-confidence in a man sexy. Self-confidence in a Dominant is mandatory.
I've also been told by women that arrogance is a major turn-off.
Where do you draw the line, between self-confidence and arrogance?
Hello GhostWhoWalks,

When it gets smelly, that's where I draw the line.
Is one person's arrogance anothers self-confidence?
That can be, because it would be explained wrong.
Is either merely in the eye of the beholder?
Well some can smell a arrogant person,
with their head up their ass, from miles afar.
While others will still believe it's great to have self confidence,
it also depends how much self confidence the other person has.
Or are there commonalities, actions or words most of us associate with crossing the line between self-confidence and arrogance
I believe when someone feels too good to talk to someone else, or looks down on people, and makes sure the rest of the world
know this. Those people are so missing out. It doesn't suit anyone to act like such. Because what is it what they get out of it?
The so called "Iron wall" around them, like I'm untouchable?
I wonder what's the fear inside which 've put them there
in the first place.

We're all humans so act up, and be nice.
No one died from that yet.

I've a good self confidence, and I'm an open-minded soul,
who is nothing more or any less then anyone else
on this earth.

GhostWhoWalks I wish you enough.

If someone jumps to the wrong conclusion about you or says or does something blatantly wrong is it arrogance to correct them or self confidence?
The reason I ask for an opinion is that for years I have been ignoring other people's stupidities to their detriment. In general lateralist, people aren't too keen on getting critic on what they say, do or on their behavier. It so depends though on HOW you say it. If you give positive feedback first, and then bring some bad news, that's way different then burn that person off to the ground right away. I wondered what kept you from telling them how you felt ?. I decided it was time for a change.
However it seems people don't like being told how to do things or being told that they are wrong lol. I'm not just talking about differences in opininion on trivial matters but when people are in powerful positions surely they have a duty to get things as right as possible or at least listen to someone with more real experience and knowledge of the subject. Now I don't argue when I think someone is wrong but am not sure but I do when I know they are wrong.You can always tell them how thier actions make you feel, and if they care, they would listen, and would be made aware, that what their actions/words do to other people. That's far from arrogance, that's taking yourself serious!

I do wish you enough lateralist.
