Has anyone else ever experienced this?

Has anyone else ever pushed someone away (a friend/acquaintance/colleague) from them/shut them out because they seem like a threat/rival to you? Or am I the only one?

There's been this girl I used to get along reasonably well with, but I always felt weird talking to/associating with her. I've tried numerous times to try and peacefully co-exist with her, but ultimately I've kept pushing her away from me. She was never really a close friend, and then again I don't hate her/dislike her exactly - but she's always come off as a rival, even if she doesn't act like one.

And the strange thing is, I feel/felt no remorse in doing so.

No, but I've been the one pushed away because someone needed to be the smartest person in the room at all times and any cost.

It sucks.
