How do I deal with stuck up life?
Stop listening to other people and think for yourself. You are the star of your own movie/life. What do YOU want? In your heart of hearts, what is that would make you happy? If you know that, you need only to accept it and go get it. Set goals. Take action. Visualize success. If you know where you are going the whole world will step aside to let you get there. If you don't know what you want or where you are going you will end up in the twilight world between victory and defeat, as Teddy Roosevelt says. It's actually ok to not know what you want. A "good-enough" life is actually good enough for most people. That's why we have so many Vice Presidents of Paper Clips and Copy Machines. No one grows up dreaming they will be a janitor or a mail room manager, but there are many happy people who do those jobs. It's not the job that matters - all work has dignity and value and importance -- it's how you view it. If what you are doing is good for you, then accept that and be happy. If it's not, use that talent you once had to achieve the goals you want. Because if you really are fired up about something, nothing in the world will stop you from getting that thing. The thing that drives us forward is dis-satisfaction with the the way things are now and the desire to change them. It is also the reason for unhappiness because people who cannot accept the way things are and who are unwilling or unwilling to change their situation can only feel miserable and blame others or conditions or luck for their lot. They are stuck until they accept themselves as they are. Either change your life or accept it. It's your life, after all, and the only person you need to please is yourself. Remember -- everything is cause and effect, not luck or happenstance or birthright. You alone are responsible for your own destiny. If you are happy with what you have, forget what anyone else says. If not, change your life.
How do I deal with stuck up people?
It all depends on why you need to deal with them. There are times when it's your boss or your line of work (service industry, even professional services) or your spouse or a relative or a child - and you simply must persist and break through the wall of snobbery.And there are times when existence of this person makes no difference to you, and you can simply ignore them.If you absolutely must deal with them, you can put on a brave face, and make it a game of figuring out why they are so stuck up: they could have a hang-up about something, and once this something is resolved, you can make your life much easier.They could just have an RBF (google it), and it's the appearance that gives off the wrong vibes. While you are dealing with these people, plan a solution - things from intervention to professional psychological assistance to even your exit (in case of a toxic workplace - for this, just keep in mind that a new workplace is much cheaper than years of therapy recovering from the current situation). If you don't have to deal with them - either ignore them, or just be cordial to keep peace for an appearance's sake.You have to understand that you can't make those people be more polite or civilized, however neutrality towards them is better than an all-out war.You are free to pity them as you watch them wallow in their own toxicity but you can't make them choose a better way to view life around them - only they can make that decision.
How do you deal with stuck up sales people?
I was at Coach the other day, and no one offered to help. There were 3 girls there, and maybe 2 other customers. When I finally asked for help, the first thing the girl did was look me up and down. Throughout all of it, she was rude, and so snobbish. The only reason I didn't leave was because I need that bag for a gift the same day. I wanted to say "excuse me, you sell purses for a living, and you're looking down on me?"
How do you deal with a stuck-up family member?
Well she's not any blood kin of mine which is what makes it worse. My brother-in-law's wife has her nose so far in the air she can tell you the weather on the moon. It really makes it miserable for the rest of us because even though we don't have to see them much throughout the year, we do see them on family occasions, (family reunions, christmas, thanksgiving, etc.) Let me give you an example. This past Christmas the only person she would talk to is her husband, (my brother-in-law). The only picture she would pose in is one all by herself to show how pregnant she is, (she is only 7 weeks and not even showing yet), and if you say something to her then you get sneered at as if she were saying "Get away from me you wooly mammoth!" For 4 years it has carried on like this at every gathering. And I am on the verge of saying something for the simple fact that no one else will. We have a family reunion coming up next month so I could use some good advice.
How to deal w/ a stuck-up friend?
What should I do w/ a friend of mine who think she's better than everybody else? She is an awesome friend & all that but she just acts like every guy likes her & it's annoying. When she starts talking about how this guy was lookin at her like weird (w/ a giggle at the end :|), I'm just like ok I get it, you're tellin me he likes you!? I mean he was just lookin no biggie. I don't know, is she a flirt? When I become friends w/ someone new, she needs to be friends (which is not a problem) but then she wants to be like closer w/ that person!

How do you deal with stuck up parents?
There's a really important clue here. You say that you act stuck-up because you feel awkward... maybe his parents act stuck-up because they feel awkward too. If people are mean to you or push you away, it's usually because of their own insecurities, not you. So have pity on them and give them the benefit of the doubt, and try to be friendly, just as you would want someone to do for you. Dress modestly and nicely, like you were going to dinner at a nice restaurant. Smile and greet them politely. Tell them what a great job they did raising your son and what you like best about him. If there is a lull, ask them about what they enjoy doing, and then ask follow-up questions about whatever they mention.
