Does your confidence, self-esteem, self-worth depend ENTIRELY upon people agreeing with you and when they don't you GET VERY ANGRY?

You attack them and try to annihilate them and trash them and excoriate them and vilify them  because they DARE to disagree? If so isn't that more than a bit wackadoodly doo, nutso and fruitcakey?

  • Confidence and self esteem are bolstered by being right. There's no sense in getting angry if people don't agree.

    That is a logical rational reasonable sensible adult response. There are some, one specifically, who ties his self-esteem to being always right never wrong and DEMANDS that he receive LOYALTY in the form of always agreeing with everything he says/does. OR ELSE THERE WILL BE HE** TO PAY! That is illogical irrational unreasonable nonsensical and a very childish response. In an old person? Incomprehensible. Thank you for your reply SC! :)

    Goodness if it did then I guess I would be angry all the time because I have never been much good at getting people to agree with me.
