Description
Stamp by ~ChikitaWolfBackground found on Google~
Request by ~ItsAThadie ~
Why orange? Cuz apparently orange is the color of confidence~ Sounds cheesy as mess oh wellz.
And for those who don't know the difference:
confidence: a feeling or consciousness of one's powers or of a reliance on one's circumstances; the quality or state of being certain
arrogance: overbearing pride evidenced by a superior manner toward inferiors; have or displaying a sense of overbearing self-worth or self-importance
Well, I hope you like it, ~ItsAThadie

It's probably due to the fact that most people who have "confidence" today are people who dress and act like sluts and if you point out those aforementioned qualities about them they get pissed off and get all their 'friends' together to verbally attack you
probably the only reason I think this is because I'm jealous.
I don't have many friends and I'm not very attractive either, and forgive me if I'm 'throwing a pity party', as most people like to call it.
and I'm not confident. So I spend my time making fun of other people who actually have it in the hopes of making myself look and feel like a better person :/

i needed this stamp so much. many people have mistaken me for arrogant and it's so annoying. i like my art and i have fun doing it... i can't even express that without people thinking i'm arrogant. people judge me and they don't even know me.

Bless this glorious stamp.
Why is the difference so difficult to comprehend?

When I was still in high school, I would go tell my mom good morning after getting myself ready, and look in her mirror and say, "I look great today," and walk away. One morning she jst laughed and said, "Okay, why are you so conceited?" My only response was, "I'm not, I have self-confidence. Would you prefer to hear me call myself ugly all the time?" She just shrugged and said, "Good point." My 12 year old sister uses that, now. And I'm glad she does; She's always been teased about her weight, but it's hereditary. I'm glad I started that so she could follow through! People are always saying, "You're so beautiful, don't down yourself," or "Why the fuck do people call themselves ugly, they're jst trying to get attention! Shut the hell up!" And the instant you start doing that, everyone's turned around and saying, "Well aren't you full of yourself?" Just goes to show, no ones ever going to be perfectly happy with you, so stop trying to please them and be happy with yourself. Awesome stamp!

So right!!! I'm new in my school and i'm more confident than the rest, not afraid to voice out my opinion, even if it's not a good one so they call me know-it-all, stuck-up and arrogant :/

I think there is a difference between confidence and arrogance, arrogant people will try to put one down for not being 'perfect' academically or physically or both, while a confident person just can mention they did well on this or that without needing to add a 'you suck' to the conversation.
I have met both types IRL.

Is there a difference? Yes if you consider their definitions.
Can confidence still be considered arrogance? Hell yeah.
If there's an extreme version of confidence, then that's considered arrogance despite the definition of the word. What is 'extreme confidence' you ask? Why, it's the same as arrogance.
The lines can clearly get blurred but there's definitely a line.

There's always a place where the lines are blurred. Though, in that case, we can use adjectives (AKA: extreme confidence) to better define it.

Hm, true.
In the end, that's still arrogance x)

"Saying confidence is arrogance is just a way for the man to put us down, man! Especially the womenfolk, man!"
XD No idea where I heard it. Probably a wise beatnik at my old high school.

Yes overbearing is not the same as healthy confidant.

Yuuuppp.
I believe ItsAThadie meant the times when you say that you're good at something, or claims that you can handle it, and people just look at you like... Like you're an arrogant asshole, really.

But... that's not arrogant... Humans are such misunderstood creatures _ _|||

I kind of agree, but kind of ... eh. I dunno. 
I feel like I'm being too arrogant whenever I'm "confident" at all. I don't like that, it's an icky feeling.

It's a frustrating topic-- at least I know for people around my age (in my area). "Confidence" is all too often associated with "arrogance"-- hence that "icky" "unsure" feeling when "confidence" is used :I

Yeah...

I think feeling "good" or "satisfied" is never a bad thing. When you succeed, it's only natural for you to feel "successfull". Now, rubbing it in someone's face, boasting about it, etc, is where people start to get annoyed.

There is a large gap between confidence and arrogance. I know plenty of arrogant people. :/
Lalala, I can't think I'm about to fall asleep on my keyboard, so I'll stop saying stuff. |D

And then when I say anything 'great' about myself (... Yes, I do do that occasionally. |D), people call me out for bragging and being arrogant. Dx So I've learned to keep my thoughts to myself, otl.
No. I don't need slee-- *snore*
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah :I I used to have a huge problem with that when I didn't know how to keep my mouth shut~ 
*gives you pillow* 'Nighty~'Night~

No. I mean, I'll say something like, "Yay, I passed the test!" and someone will call me a bragger. |DD So I keep everything good I do to myself, otl.
No. No Nighty night-- *falls over unconcious due to fatigue*

Ah, Lordy. I never boast about my grade o3o I mean, I'll be proud about it on the inside, but I don't DARE mention it. Especially if my friend got a lower one >3<""

I guess it's all because of those arrogant kids who say that "they're just confident", yet they clearly don't know how confidence differs from arrogance.:/

That's probably it :I When I was younger confidence was nearly a bad thing -w-" Cuz no one wanted to be a "bossy" "stuck-up" kid

Of course you would post this stamp the same day I read (in my Microsoft Word 2010 class book....) that Orange= confidence and victory XDDDD. Sorry I just found that so ironic.....
But I agree~ (do I ever NOT agree with any of the stamps you make? 
👍: 0 ⏩: 1

Yay~!
