I can't deal with it anymore.
My girlfriend thinks she is the most important person in existence, literally. If the president was caught in a burning building, she think she'd be rescued first, no matter the circumstances.
I hate this. I want her o realize she's as unimportant to the world as any other civilian. Obviously she's important to me, but I want her to realize that not everyone is going to love her after passing her on the street.
And due to her feeling above everyone else, she's a total bitch to anyone she isn't friends with, and she can't stand to sit at the same lunch table as me if someone she doesn't like is sitting on the opposite end. Hell, she expects everything out of everyone. I'm surprised she's maintaining a job.
So, I guess the question is "How the hell do I convince a total narcissist that they aren't who they think they are?" |

But you still want to be together right...?
Maybe tell her nicely what does she think of other people she "hates?" And maybe go from there...? |

She hates them because she just does. Maybe they look at her weird. Maybe they look weird themselves. Maybe they post something mean on MySpace or Facebook. She acts like a 4-year-old. I want her to act like a 16-year-old. |

One way that could work is to talk to her parents about this, and let her parents deal with it. If I were you I'd say to my gf that she should be nicer to others because I hate it when I see others being made fun of. Well, thats just me. I hope things will work out for you. |

The only thing I can think of is this:
SHe want's to stay together, right? Then calmly explain to her that she needs to accept that she isn't the only person in the world, and that there are so many people that don't know her. Why should they like her right away? Tell her not to be mean to anyone she doesn't like. Just because she doesn't like them doesn't mean they deserve what she's giving them. There are some other t=things, such as the president and her in a burning building thing, and there's more stuff you can say. The calmly tell her that she needs to start acting her age or you'll break up with her. If she says "Ok, break up with me" or something like that, then wait a day and tell her that you want to get back together. If she tries to act her age, but can't, break up with her and tell her that she can get you back once she CAN act her age, and if she can't, then tell her you want to get back together again.
Sorry that this is the only thing I can think of, but it might work. |

@Pokemoneinstein: I've already tried that, but I feel like such an asshole. |

Well, sorry for my failed attempt to help you. I really love to help out any couple's problems. It must be her parent's fault that she acts like this, no offense to them. |

A certain level of selfishness and arrogance is good for anyone. Those with a little arrogance are often ambitious, and make the most out of oppurtunities presented to them. That said, it can lead to success.
I suggest telling her to town down and quit being an ass to other people, but don't call her unimportant. If everyone felt that they were unimportant, we would have never advanced past the Stone Age.
Better yet, tell her to go out and prove that she is important- there's a possibility she could contribute some work to society if she does. |

Hmm, that is a problem. But, honestly, if she is a a huge jerk, ponder if you REALLY want to be her girfriend. I had a best priend, We were SO close,he came over every other day. He had a lot of problems. I got mad at him once, and I wondered, and thought it was a bad relationship. And after a bit, I relized it was a good choise.
BETTER OPTION: Honestly, she Is not relizing something. she needs to see it. the best way, ALWAYS works. Ask the question, she won't be able to awnser then she should see. Tell her her this exactly: "I think you have been thinking your more important. We all have lives, and we are all people. I want you to awnser this. What makes you better then others?
She can't awnser it, and she will see it, BAM. Just try it.

| She says she's better than everyone else because of everything, and that she can't get over herself. |

| She says she's better than everyone else because of everything, and that she can't get over herself. | In that case, I don't think she should be your girlfriend. But if you really like her and she really likes you, then stay. I have no say in it. It's really your choice. |

Tell her exactly that. What you just said, it may upset her, but it's better to upset her than to just break up with her because of it. And if she hears it from someone she cares about, it'll affect her. |
