Ever wonder what goes through a persons mind when they do something so hypocritical that their mental health is questioned? Well, I certainly do and here's why.
Over the long weekend I was unfortunate enough to witness one individuals hypocritical attempt at acceptance they were a spectacle of embarassing proportion. I have to tell you it was disturbing to say the least. Needless to say it got me thinking about why on earth would this person think what they are doing is anything but disturbing. I think it's because they really and truly are clueless. They have no idea that the people who know them best see them for what they really are and well, that's kinda sad. I would pity this person but they don't deserve my pity. What they really need is a swift kick in the rear and to be told to stop being such a hypocrite.
But why is this person such a hypocrite and so utterly clueless? Well ego, they have such low self esteem that they need to elevate themselves above everyone else and in doing so generally make fools of themselves, unfortunately I know far too many people like this and am starting to wonder if it's an epidemic. To put it simply, these particular individuals view themselves as superior because that's all they have to bolster their self esteem. It sounds backwards I know but someone with self confidence and healthy self esteem does not have to rely on their ego to make themselves "feel" they are better than everyone else, that's not a concern. AND a self confident person would not wander around espousing to anyone who would listed how fabulous they are. That just doesn't happen.
I think what bothers me the most is how truly clueless this person is and how utterly pathetic their behaviour, I know it's really none of my business but it does have a direct affect on me. Had I been there at the moment of their display of ignorance I might have said something, but then again, had I been there my poor friends would not have been subjected to such a disgusting display of ignorance and a pathetic attempt to make a spectacle of ones self. I should really apologise to my friends for having to witness such a display.
Needless to say, this person likely believes they are accepted and admired by my friends. The thing is, my friends know exactly what kind of person this individual is, and they are not fooled by such a blatant display of hypocracy. In fact, they were stunned at the nerve this person displayed approaching them and manner in which they conducted them self. I so wish I were there. My presence would have prevented such an embarrassment for my friends. The really sad part is, this person has no idea that they are a hypocrite and never will because their ego will not alow them so see themself as others see them. Someone really should explain it but ya, that's not going to happen.
So, I know this one is a little ranty. But when I loose sleep because I can't get it out of my head what would possess someone to think they are accepted amongst my group of friends who know full well the atrocities inflicted on me by this person, just because I was not present really bothers me. It's a slap in the face and thank GOD they all know what this hypocrite is capable of and well, while they were polite, because my friends are soooo nice, they too were confused by this display. That's just not cool in my book.
That's how I see it,
Tammy.
