> It makes me think of my dad, who used to tell me I was a snob. Funny, to think of myself that way, as my self-esteem is about an inch high.
I think that sometimes I come off as a snob because I tend to act all aloof with people, and it probably seems like I'm not interested or I think that I'm above them, which is so far from the truth. Also, I'm not very good at pretending I'm interested when I'm not, so I think that my eyes/attention wander and people can tell. My best friend told me once that I am more-or-less a snob, well, maybe hypocrite was the word, because I have these higher standards for myself - I think it's fine for other people to be whatever way, but certain things aren't good enough for myself.
Anyways. I'm sorry about your situation with her. I don't really know what to say because I am not very "effective" with friends/roomates/family so I'm not sure I have any worthy advice. But I hope it works out okay.
