You go to a party.

You see there is a pretty girl at the party, you are attracted to her. She is different and unusual.

But all she does is talk about herself.

 She tells everyone about how wonderful she is, about how smart she is, and about how famous and rich she is going to become.

Then, she starts to whine and complain:

Some people have insulted her, or made fun of her behind her back. All she does is repeat and repeat the insults that some strangers have said about her, and she keeps asking, "Can you believe that? Can you believe they said that about me? How DARE they talk that way about me?"

Then she screams, "WHY DOES EVERYONE INSULT ME?"

You cannot understand why she is so upset. The people who have made fun of her are not even at the party.

You compliment her and say, "Well, you are very beautiful."

And she says, "Yes, I know."

Some people at the party start to get annoyed, because this girl seems very arrogant, and even a little bit scary. She is way too angry for no reason.

So they ask her to leave.

She gets very upset. She starts to scream, "I KNEW YOU WERE ALL AGAINST ME. Well, I am going to be the RICHEST and most POWERFUL woman EVER. You will all be sorry. I will make it so that you can never make fun of me or insult me ever again!"

But before she leaves, she then says in a very sweet voice, "Oh, by the way, everybody here is cordially invited to a nice summer party I am throwing this August. Please come!!!"

Then she slams the door and walks out.

I know 2 persons that acts like the girl of your story.

She is creating the environment that sorround her. Why she expects that everybody loves her if she acts in that way??

But, I try to see what´s the analogy? I mean I don´t get your point!!

It's an analogy for certain aspects of international relations :)

sounds crazy…

Yeah doesn't it? Like if you knew a person who anytime anyone criticized her, or said something mean about her, got really upset and blamed EVERYBODY for what ONE PERSON said, and then went around expecting everyone to sympathize with her, you'd think she was a bit strange, right? 

it’s really a girl typically like..=)
all she needs is attention..
no matter how much money you have it’s count nothing if you didn’t have anyone whom understand and respect you..=)

WELL, I JUST DON'T KNOW WHAT 2 SAY. THAE PEOPLE LIKE THIS GIRL R ALWAYS UNHAPPY IN THIS LIFE. THIS GIRL IS THE ONE WHO LOOKS AT EVRYTHING FROM BAD LIGHT. I'M JUST SORRY FOR SUCH KIND OF PERSONS.

I really feel sorry for this girl. It seems she lives under her illusions and really can’t understand why people don’t like her. I suppose her to be very young and inexperienced.

Yes, I feel very sorry for people like this too. 

very good analogy, Al

That’s just analogy! Don’t U see that? But i don’t know who/what is given it for! Actualy all people should see theirselves in the mirror! They will find it inside, even just a bit! No matter who you are!

i think US may play such a role of the girl. we all know that US is the most powerful and richest country in the world. because of all this, he is just on tip of our talks, many countries may blame monoply and hegemony. However, we all accept surperior of US, whose open enviroment in nearly everything, many people especially high intellects of countries around the world are anticipating to get a green card. Rediculous!
