Arrogance: Only other arrogant people like you
Confidence: Everybody else likes you
hmmmm....wouldn't arrogant people be jealous and therefore resentful of one another?
I couldn't disagree with coyote's definition any more. From what i've observed arrogant people can't stand people like them becuz arrogant folk usually want all the attention on them and hate sharing. And for the 2nd part, nobody is liked by everyone just because they're confident.
But it is an opinion anyway isn't it..

Isn't it all simply based on perception in the end?

Definately.
If I am an overly confident person myself, then I might respect that trait in someone, whereas someone else would think that person was arrogant. So it's definately all based on perception from the jump.
HmMm this is my personal opinion so please dont get offended =/ ... I am a very confident person especially when it comes to school and stuff like that but when I know someone doesnt like me and they're "hatin on me" I intentionally come off arrogant for the reason that I know I am better than them ( I know it is somewhat bias ) ... but when their attitudes towards me are stanK and waCk its hard for me not to acome across arrogant ... But I dont know I think I am a pretty nice person until someone upsets me :-)
that's pretty much how I am...
and today one of my friends asked me why I didn't attend the honors ceremony I was invited to last Thursday...I replied with, "I don't need an award to tell me that I do my work and do it well"...and they said I'm cocky...I think I'm just confident...
So sometimes in some certain scenarios.
People calling you arrogant could be based moreso out of their own insecurity or lack of self esteem than your actual level of overbearing pride.

A lot of the time is just the way people say shyt, not actually what they're really trying to say.

Nah, I think in most cases it is what it is. An arrogant person is arrogrant because the carry the traits of an arrogant person. That's why there is a such thing as an arrogant person or it wouldn't be a word.
Just like someone is who is shy, happy, or angry. A person is what they are, calling it perception or not.

But what you call them is always based on your perception.
