to stop being so arrogant/self-pitying/dramatic · to stop thinking you're so important
You know those moments when a friend is dramatically complaining about a minor issue or acting like they're the only one who matters? 🙄 This is the perfect, albeit direct, phrase to tell them to snap out of it and gain some perspective. It's like saying, "Hey, your feelings are valid, but maybe not *that* valid right now."
When would you most appropriately use 'to get over yourself'? A. 🎉 When someone is genuinely sad about a major life event. B. 😤 When your friend is loudly complaining about a small coffee spill, acting like it's the end of the world. C. 🙏 When you are thanking someone for a thoughtful gift.
💡 **Usage Alert!** This phrase can sound a bit harsh if not delivered with the right tone or to the right person. It's best used with close friends or family when you want to playfully (or firmly) tell them to stop being self-centered or overly sensitive about something small. Avoid using it in formal settings or with people you don't know well, unless you're aiming for confrontation! 😈
