Does thinking highly of someone mean you like them?

Not necessarily. I think highly of Weird Al Yankovic and my 9th grade English teacher, but I don't want to date them.

However, I also 'think highly' of my crush. But if he asked me for my opinion of him, that is not the term I'd use. I'd tell him outright that I liked him. The chance of me telling him I 'thought highly of him' would be very low because that term.. doesn't seen like one that should be used in that scenario.

Sorry.

Thinking highly of yourself doesn't necessarily mean that one is 'arrogant'. This would come under the heading of .... thinking TOO highly of one's self.
And, the quality of humility doesn't necessarily mean that one doesn't think highly of themselves, as well. Nor, does having humility mean that one is someone apt to be low in self esteem.

I think quite highly of myself. I have a solid base of values and ethics that I try very hard to live by and know myself to be someone with pretty good intentions and goals. But, I also know my limitations, my faults and failures. Because of my experiences and knowledge base I have a fairly strong confidence ratio. But, I also, there again, realize that the world is full of people far more knowledgable and able in many diverse subjects. And, I definitely know humility, for it is my faults and failures that have taught me this quality.

On this subject, as in so many others ... the phrase... All things in moderation.... comes to mind.... For it is the "balance" that you mention in your closing statement.

One must learn the qualities of all of these factors and their relationship to.... and, within their lives... in order to be ....
confident enough to be an achiever.... but humble enough to know their place within the overall in order to find the harmony of balance
