....for sucking at something. And then get passive aggressive with people that are better than them about ‘not having anything to prove’.

What’s up with this guy? I get it, you suck at golf. I don’t really care if you’re good or bad, but you apparently have a problem with me being good because your insecurities esp in mixed company are tiresome.

Just because I enjoy playing and improving shouldn’t bother you to the point you have to overly express to everyone that you’re not trying to prove anything like ‘the big man over there’. Just say, we had fun playing and leave it at that.

Some folks who, at younger ages, found many things easy to excel at without much effort, become frustrated as they grow older that almost every thing worth pursuing takes time, dedication, and effort.

If someone does not learn this lesson, they are likely to claim not to give a frick if they aren't immediately a badass in a given area. This is a form of cognitive dissonance that allows them to feel their preformed sense of superiority.

I know this because it was me for a long time.

While he's lining up his putt, establish eye contact and take a shite in the hole.

You're one of those people who turn every activity into a competitive thing aren't you?
