Where do you draw the line between being arrogant, and being proud?

    When someone acts like they’re better than you because of the thing they accomplished! That’s arrogance. Pride doesn’t have to compare itself to others…

    I think pride is something we all feel when have accomplished something big. It is a natural feeling, but it is not something we keep boasting about. We also do not feel the need to think we are better than others because of what we have achieved. I believe arrogance is when you think your are better than others because of those accomplishments.

    I can be proud of something and still be humble. Arrogance says, that what I do, achieve or be is better than what others do, achieve, or are. Being proud says that it is simply better than what I did, achieved, or was before.

    Arrogant is when people are trying to one up someone else, feel better than them. Proud is the glow of your own achievements won through hard work. At least in my mind, that’s the difference.
