Hi, i have a “friend”(more of a professional relationship loll) that i met because we both wanted to start a club chapter at our school. Some background; she just transfered here this year, she’s smart, has a “photographic memory” etc etc. Whenever she messes up with something she says “i swear i have a high IQ”, calls me dumb, etc; i really don’t care about her superior attutide because i know she is probably smarter than me and honestly it doesn’t annoy me that much. The problem is with the club.
Since we’re both co-presidents, we have to speak at the meetings. At our first meeting, her attutide was horrible and her superiority complex showed completely; she said to everyone (40+ people) “i know you all know how to read” in a demeaning manner, was completely out of line as a student addressing other students. It’s hard to explain the exact situation but just know it was evident to everyone that she seemed like she thought she was above everyone.
My question is, should i confront her? How? I feel liks confronting her will make me seem as if i’m trying to point out an entire personality fault, but i also don’t want her to be unliked by everyone. Thanks! 
She doesn’t have a true photographic memory. Anyone with an ego like hers shows a lack of self confidence, she might be smart, I’m not denying that. Though she has to tell herself and everyone around her that she’s smart because she is suffering from a low self confidence.
What you should tell her is:
“Look, you act like you’re smarter than everyone else, which you’re not. Having an ego like yours only makes you seem dumber than everyone else, as someone who is truly as smart as you act like you are wouldn’t be telling them self and others every moment they can. If you continue doing this, I don’t know how much longer our friendship will last.”
I’d not say anything. You two sound like you compete rather than are friends. I’d let it go.
I would not “confront” her but I would talk to her. I would tell her how you felt when you heard her sarcastic way of talking to the fellow club members. Be sincere and mention that you really want both of you to be great leaders and show good example of treating other people with respect.
If she doesn’t take your advise, there is nothing you can do. Let it go and be a good leader yourself.
