Angel Complex

An Angel Complex, or angelic complex, is a superiority mindset similar to a God complex. Unlike a God complex, however, the individual believe they were put on this Earth to help the people. Despite their flaws, they think they can do no harm and never do wrong because they had the "right" intentions. With this, it is hard to believe that people could hate the person with an angel complex- their reasoning being "I'm so nice and caring, how could you ever hate someone like me?"
Instead of taking blame, they will judge the other in spite and blame the other's actions/words on jealousy.

Inflated Ego with the intention to do good in the world.

"I think Cassidy has some kind of an Angel Complex, she's always preaching how nice she is. And while she is nice. . . she acts like she's a savior"
"Someone's got to humble her."
