I was talking to a friend recently and tried to describe the behavior of someone and the only term that came to mind was the person has a god complex. The person is always right even when they are wrong. As a friend would say they always stand strong in their wrong. That was when I realized that I know a number of persons that exhibit this trait. I don’t think I attract them, they just there. That was when I thought to myself that this trait is more common than I originally thought. I know it’s great to show strength and have a backbone but what happens when you go too far and believe than you are infallible? Is it a case of what goes up must come down?
You might say but maybe the person is just confident, but I think there is a difference. There is the knowledge that you have that you are good at what you do which is totally different from believing that you alone know what is best for all concerned. The person in question is not unique in their family with the behavior. Now that I’m thinking about it I wonder if it’s the upbringing that plays a factor? It’s interesting seeing how they interact with each other knowing that they are always right. One is the worst than all the others combined and they just allow the person to get away with it because what else can they do? The person considers themselves the top dog. The others in turn treat others in the similar manner. Could it just be a situation of hurt people hurting others? 🤔. I try my best to stay away from them because they toxic. Well I think they are and I stay away from them the best way I know how so as to protect myself. As I have always said, my mental health is too important. The question is what happens when they are family? How does one cut them out of your life like a sore? It’s not easy. I have an uncle that epitomizes the god complex. He alone knows even when it’s not his forte and there is nothing you can say to let him understand that it’s not always the way he thinks. I guess when you don’t like how you are treated you don’t dish it out and that’s the reason I try not to exhibit this behavior.
The worst part is that they don’t seem to realize that they behave in such a manner. Is it they are blind to what they do and how they behave because they never look within? I know it makes no sense talking to the person because they are always right and you don’t know enough to be on their level. At the end of the day they are in their own cocoon and nothing can take them out of it unless they meet someone similar. I have seen the same personalities clash and they are usually upset with each other because how dare they challenge me. What to do but move around them.
