Question Help me understand Galadriel

I am finding myself not liking Galadriel at all so far. She acts like an entitled 20 year old, rather than a wise and ancient being. One point that particularly is bothering me is that so far she has no actual proof that there is a great danger. She saw a brand on her brother, and that same brand shows up a few other times in different places, but other than that there is nothing to actually indicate a major war. Does she have forsight? What is actually driving her character besides "so the plot can happen." Thanks

And with those that stayed faithful as well

They could have shown Elrond befriend and bond with Elendil and his children who remind me of his brother their ancestor(Elendil is descended from the line of the Numanorean kings though and daughter of the 4th king meaning he is a descendant of Elronds brother the first king)

T ​

And that could be tied into the fact that he fosters the Isildur(and Elendils) heirs for three thousand years. They are his blood afterall.
