The point IS that even if the person dosent understand or not, (and you cant force then to agree with you) you have to NOT believe it to win in this game.
Coz F**k them, if theyre petty enough to waste their time saying an insult that is CLEARLY designed to damage someones self-esteem that makes them a loser.
You can tell a lot about someone if you watch how much they insult people, and it's the most socially paranoid ppl who use that weapon of fake superiority and try to engender the the belief of inferiority in others when they feel insecure.
Its a superiority lie. Its cr*p and really does ONLY work when the other person believes their accuser. If you don't believe them then youve won, even if they dont realize it and keep jabbering!.
It's important to recognise who ever it is for the insecure little girl/boy they are and not be afraid to say whatever you need to. It is very important that you let them know you dont care if they think or say their worst, that way they'll lose their power. Think about it: if theyre telling you that now, do you ever expect them to be any nicer? Do you really care, (or should you have to), when they are saying that?
If anyone insults you and it sounds like they are saying you arent important, then you can know they are using that because they feel weak inside and paranoid. Its a cue as to how they feel and hence helps you in knowing how to respond best.
Anyone like this is not worth keeping so say what you think! They will probably be so gobsmacked their little game did'nt work!
Ppl who try to assert their own superiority have an ulterior motive and are saying such stuff for other reasons than its actually valid, even if it appears to have some element of fact in. They will pick on anything so may advice is.....depending on the relationship..........speak your mind and if you arent the type to shout "fu*k off!" then dont believe in your heart any of the Bollo*ks theyve said, as it will only make their insult more hurtful if they say it again. Dont believe them and whatever you do dont EVER worry about impressing your insulter! That way you are giving them power, big time!

You can either say nothing (it wasn't a question after all) or you can say "I'm sorry you feel that way" and walk away. The point is this person is wrong, and it really doesn't matter if s/he knows it or not. The important thing is for you to know that you are important.

I would look her straight in the eye and say,
"Coming from someone that everyone says smells like they wear the same underwear for a month---anything you say is irrelevant"
Laugh and walk off !!!
would probably work for a guy too...
*good luck, don't ever let anyone make you feel less than the special person that you are!!!!! Okay??

"Not important to You?.... well I think it's IMPORTANT to tell you what a waste of space you are, which gives me a reason to be here and you with none. That makes you less important than me dosen't it? How do you deal with that?"

That kind of a statement requires no response. The person you're dealing with has some obvious mental problems...

I agree with cookie and add something along the lines of "and why would I give a *&%$ what you think?" Then go hang out with people who like you. Yeah it will still hurt, but at least you're not just letting them get away with it.

I am very important but may be not in ways you can see or understand.

Tell them "Maybe not to you, but I'm important to someone." and walk away.

Ask them what makes them think they are important because they're not. Someone once told me they knew me, I didn't recognize them and was looking at them to try and figure out wher I might know them from and he accused me of checking him out. my response to him was;I'm not checking you out and anyway what makes you think I'd be checking you out, you're not much to look at.(he was, but why let him think he was.)

Tell them you do not live for their opinion ..because they, and their opinion, are not important enough to matter to anyone....
