The person praised themselves by saying that are nothing like you. But God knows who is better, according to that person they think they are better than you. Its a term people use.

The person is looking down on you. Its a condescending phrase. Arrogant individual indeed :wow:

Its also possible he/she is praising you and putting themselves down but its almost always the other way :lol:

Most of the time, people use it in a condescending manner but it could be interpreted as praise...it really depends on the context Hyper.

It just means they are the opposite of what u r. It doesnt really have to mean something negative.

It could just be a compliment.

It could be an insult or a compliment. It's not necessarily condescending.
