Pretentious isnt much different than superficial, though it's more of a mindset than a personality. It's a mindset that isnt based in authenticity or reality.

Get the Pretentious mug.Someone who expects everyone to be friendly. Nobody owes it to anybody to be friendly or welcoming all the time, or to like/pretend to like every stranger they ever met. In life, if you make a few true friends, you have what some people pretend to have, and what many never get. Why would you need more than that? Why would you already like/love/trust somebody you never met, a stranger. Anybody who says they like/love/trust a stranger is pretending to like/love/trust a stranger.
Only a pretentious person would say they liked/loved/trusted someone they never met before/didn't know well. Someone who wanted everyone to assume they owed it to other people to like/love/trust everyone, including them.

Get the Pretentious mug.Somebody that wishes they lived back in the old days when legs got amputated by saws that had no power and people had to knock sense into the one kind of person who never got it without getting hit in the head with a 2×4.
The pretentious girl wanted to perpetuate an inauthentic tough image of someone that every now and then needed someone to hit them in the head with a 2×4 to knock sense in them, but also wanted an inauthentic image of someone that liked expensive clothes cars, and drinks. There was no good reason she was always acting tough, just like there was no good reason she was always going back and doing the opposite by trying to get people to indulge, spoil, and pamper her like a Disney princess, a cartoonish and unrealistic expectation of what people should do for her.

Get the Pretentious mug.Somebody that pretends to love people they don't really love and support things they don't really hold sacred, from LGBT rights, feminism, mental illness, and other causes to spiritual causes, all to promote an extraverted, sociable image that is not really them. Someone that tells a broad audience of people that don't know them well that they are one way, when really they are another when nobody is around.
The pretentious girl was introverted when nobody was around, but tried to make herself look extroverted and fun when there was an audience of her suckers she was trying to play around, as they were a path to power for her.
