I believe that people feel intimidated because they lack self-confidence. They see things in themselves that they believe stands out when they are around others. I am not easily intimidated by anyone because I have learned how to control the self-confidence thing in my life, and because I don't feel self-conscious about myself. I have always said that if someone doesn't like me for who I am... I don't care! That's their loss! So, the key here is...self-confidence minus the self-conscious mind.

Well for one some people are really intimdating and you just may know some of them.. they need to learn to quit being intimidating, usually they will not know they are doing it , unless someone brings it to their attention.
then you could feel intimidated, cause you may have low self esteem, so you would need to work on that and build that up, then when your self esteen is where it should be you will not feel intimideated all of the time.

Often times it is a low self-esteem. If you have a good self-esteem, you usually won't feel intimidated by people. Also, take a good look at these people, do you want to be around those who use intimidation?

you don't say what makes you feel intimidated. Most of those feeling are of inadequacy. Do you have a problem with self esteem?
There are some great books that you can read to help you understand where these feelings are coming from, and how you can overcome them.
good luck

In what aspect?

Sports- size and ability
Looks- somebody drop dead gorgeous
Brains- anybody smarter
Life- a person that seems to "Have it all"

I may get intimidated by others but I will never allow that they are better than me in anyway.

If you think somebody is better than you and you back away from them without fighting for/with your own strengths, you are intimidated.

Don't let it happen! Do not be intimidated!!! By anybody!!

When someone demonstrates the ability to somehow overpower you in something and you can't do anything (rational ) about it. For example when you're older sister always gets the awards for sports and you don't and you try your hardest but you can't do anything. You will feel intimidated, if she comes up to you and always tells you that she will always be better than you.

Anything that feels threatening to you emotionally, physically, or mentally makes you intimidated.
