So many people in their "dislikes" list arrogance but, in the same breath, want somebody who is confident of themselves. Perhaps this is counter-intuitive because surely the more self-confident you become the closer you become to being arrogant.

So, where's the line?

that is a very good question, and i think there is a very fine line between them, but it would also depend on the person and how they say things, if its said with a cheeky grin well then you'll get away with being self confident but said very seriously then thats a whole different story, but i think also u need to know the person to know exactly what they are! and on sites its very hard to tell cause u cant see there facial expressions!

I guess confidence is qietly knowing you're able, and Arogance is when you shout you are the most able
