What is your conception of "ego"? How do you recognize it and relate to it in yourself and/or others?

how do you define "ego"*Red Angel* 10-02-2006, 03:15 AM "Ego"...is when people are afraid to swallow their pride, think they're superior to anyone else and feel an exaggerated sense of self-imporatnce. That's how I see it anyway. :) Rubz 10-02-2006, 07:55 AM ur made up of da dictionary dadi ehhehe sahara 11-02-2006, 11:27 PM Ehhehehhe Look At Me I'm Rubezzzzzzzzzz miss_teryus 12-02-2006, 01:48 PM red_angel sed it really well... i think...ego is wen ya feel the need to show ppl yer better than em..so dat u yerself dun get hurt...it's one of our minds' defense mechanisms...subconsciously, ppl show that they are overly proud of emselves, so that nobody thinks lowly of em.. ego can be good and bad. good: it often makes ppl respect you more (cuz you're directly showing that u want respect) bad: it mite make other ppl think like "who does he think he is?!" (or she)--and in that sense, lower the amount of respect dat ppl give you.. --and it mite make ppl feel inferior to you....ppl mite get be afraid to associete emselves wid u...or mite have a hard time being themselves, wen theyr wid you... Rubz 12-02-2006, 04:56 PM omggg bhooot u dont knw dadi name yetttt??? *Red Angel* 19-02-2006, 07:34 AM LOL! Ruby you call me dadi so often...they probably think I'm dadi.... :p Is there such thing as a good ego? I mean I've always seen ego as a negative thing...and more like something a person has or doesn't have. But does that make sense? Hmmm.... miss_teryus 19-02-2006, 12:55 PM well, if you have NONE at all...then ppl sometimes wont respect you at all... although i think there are better ways of making ppl respect you..ego still helps! lol don corleone 09-03-2006, 09:58 PM a man without an ego is like a woman without make up(nw think ov that boyz) miss_teryus 10-03-2006, 08:27 PM no no no..thats not true!!! well..okay..in a sense... if a girl is pretty nuff to not havta wear make up...then she dun gotta! if a guy is genuine enuf to be able to not have ego...then he dun gotta! :D ~Veer_Ki_Zaara~ 10-03-2006, 08:30 PM ^oo good point but wats da diff between hveing an ego, being self centered, and hving self esteem? miss_teryus 10-03-2006, 08:35 PM u can have self esteem, without having ego-probz. you can be confident and proud of who you are...but dont try to make yourself look superior, by lowering others...there are better ways of earning respect! know your limits.. you dont have to be all egoistic for ppl to respect you.. respect yourself, and respect those around you... if you do so genuinely enough, you'll get soooooo muchey repsect in return! and this way, the respect you get will be just as genuine as the respect you give. ~Veer_Ki_Zaara~ 10-03-2006, 08:37 PM so is there a diff between being self centered and hving a ego? miss_teryus 10-03-2006, 08:39 PM hmm...conceit..ego...self-centered...theyre along the same lines.... and wut> do i look like a dictionary to you? bahahaha i dunno... what do you think? lets here your take on this.. miss_teryus 10-03-2006, 08:41 PM i think....being self centered just means that you actually dont care bout others...you put yourself ahead of them..making yourself a priority..becuase u feel that u're more important... and then ego is just a struggle for power....egoistic ppl dont actally mean to hurt ppl... ~Veer_Ki_Zaara~ 10-03-2006, 08:42 PM ur last response was close enough to a dictionary :D lolz k, in my opinoin, ego is being full of urself, u luv urself and stuff like dat being self-centered is thinking dat ppl should only care bout u, and listen to wat u hve to say, and make their life revolved around u. miss_teryus 10-03-2006, 08:46 PM ur last response was close enough to a dictionary :D lolz k, in my opinoin, ego is being full of urself, u luv urself and stuff like dat being self-centered is thinking dat ppl should only care bout u, and listen to wat u hve to say, and make their life revolved around u. hmm..yeah..i agree wid dat as well.. ego--being full of yourself, eh? im not too sure bout that... i think..ego is to hide feelings of inferiority.. rather than being over-confident...theyre ust trying to hide their lack of confidence. lol..daymm..we're good! i think we should change our names to webster..and write a dictionary! :D ~Veer_Ki_Zaara~ 10-03-2006, 08:50 PM lool yeah, maybe we should :D but when someone says "look at dat girl, she has such an ego" we only say dat cause we think that she luvs herself and stuff miss_teryus 10-03-2006, 08:52 PM hmm...not really tho... when we say "she has ego probz!" we actually mean.. something more like "hey, look at that girl! she pretends she is so cool, to compensate for her lack of uncoolity! whoooooo does she think she thinks she is?" (no, not a typo) lol ~Veer_Ki_Zaara~ 10-03-2006, 08:54 PM yeah, i guess dats true, but when we say "she has an ego" we aren't thinking she actually is really uncool, and is just trying to look cool desi_gunda 10-03-2006, 10:44 PM Ego : Something that'll either make u or break u. It defines ur personality. miss_teryus 12-03-2006, 01:57 AM thaz really vague.... devils_angel 09-10-2006, 10:33 PM ego is a inner voice tat resides in all humans... buh only makes its appearence on certain occassions occassions such as situations where one does not want to give in because giving in is portrayed as a sign of weakness.. occassions when an inner voice constantly tells you that you're right where as you know u aren't. occasions where you don't want to agree with someone/something because agreeing means lowering yourself. fantasticguy 12-10-2006, 05:25 AM wow diya.. devils_angel 19-10-2006, 12:33 AM raj kya hua?? chakar araha he kya? lol :p fantasticguy 19-10-2006, 06:01 AM ya.. im loosing control devils_angel 27-10-2006, 07:56 PM lol u lose control when i try to sound smart eh?? i c how it is.... lol.. i go crazi too so its k.. :D Ms. Jasmine 12-11-2006, 03:49 AM Ego is too much pride in oneself that the person don't want to accept their fault or go down for anyone. It's very obvious in guys. miss_teryus 12-11-2006, 05:03 AM Not neccessarily "too much". Everyone has (at least) some ego. Your definition is of hubris. |
