Words just make it worse, they're misunderstood.

"I know we're all pretty small in the big scheme of things, and I suppose the most you can hope for is to make some kind of difference, but what kind of difference have I made, what in the world is better because of me?"

I felt bad that there's this person accusing me of making another person's life (hers) miserable. Like, duh?! Am I that powerful to cause someone such misery? Ridiculous! It's been days since this incident happened. Someone posed as another person and threatened me. Told me things that I consider the silliest ever told to me. I could roll in laughter (Not to mention the very poor grammar). At least, now I can really roll in laughter because during that time when we were exchanging messages, I was raised hell. Seriously. My hands were shaking in anger, I hardly could type. Maybe, I shouldn't have responded. I could've just ignored her. I tried to send her warnings. "Stop it, I know you". She wouldn't stop. I don't know, but I couldn't just let her get away with it. Something, someone has to halt her. There's something that told me, you better not let her get away with her irrationality. But it was all pointless. She wouldn't listen to reasons. She knows only her own. Like, come on! She doesn't know better. Damn, how I wish she'll realise that, for goodness sakes! Oh, well. You can't really please everyone.

I believe she has superiority complex. Poor her. Well, if it's what's making her happy...

(The adjectives in BOLD directly describes her)

Superiority Complex refers to a subconscious neurotic mechanism of compensation developed by the individual as a result of feelings of inferiority. The term was coined by Alfred Adler (February 7, 1870 – May 28, 1937), as part of his School of Individual Psychology.

Those exhibiting the superiority complex commonly project their feelings onto others they perceive as inferior to themselves. Accusations of arrogance and cockiness are often made by others when referring to the individual exhibiting the superiority complex.

Behaviors related to this mechanism may include an exaggeratedly positive opinion of one’s worth and abilities, unrealistically high expectations in goals and achievements for oneself and others, vanity, extravagant style in dressing (with intention of drawing attention), pride, sentimentalism and affected exaltation, snobbism, a tendency to discredit other’s opinions, forcefulness aimed at dominating those considered as weaker or less important, credulity, and others.

Social aloofness, daydreaming, isolation could also be associated to the Superiority Complex, as a way to evade the fear of failure related to the feelings of inadequacy to face real world.
