I've always thought that most people either judge you for being below them or worship you for being above them.
Very few people occupy that middle ground where they are just happy for you and treat you as a person with motivations, flaws, and gifts.

My impression is that most people's identities are so coloured by their insecurities that people usually come together more on being able to laugh at their common insufficiencies and also on the things they hate in common. But this is perhaps because I'm still relatively young and the people I encounter are still working on realizing themselves.
