When my dog passed away a few months ago an acquaintance sent me a beautiful floral arrangement for my dog. I thought how nice so we started talking. And most of the days were consumed with talking about herself and I didn’t mind because not many people thought of me when I lost my dog of ten years. Slowly I started noticing she would get off work and head right to the casino endlessly talking about money. How much she loses how much she makes then loses and this is a constant thing with her it’s almost nonstop. She’s always bragging about her car or her house which she lied about because she lives with her parents at 55. I am extremely wealthy and never speak about my wealth and I don’t know if she feels the need to speak about money to feel she has An “in” with me but I don’t like people who talk about money. What really caught my eye is my birthday is next week and I bought myself an extremely expensive watch ; and I had it engraved with my passed dogs initials on the inside as I can as I am a watch collector. When I told her the symbolism of the watch. She said to me oh my husband has very very very beautiful watches ( meanwhile does she even know what a Rolex is?) anyway ; that was my only moment of pompous comments. She never once said I’m happy for you ; add to your collection; this is great. It just rubbed me the wrong way that she’s literally always talking about slots and gambling and I mention my bday gift and she’s trashing it left and right. I want to ditch her based off of this. Am I nuts?

Yeah she seems toxic as hell. Like radioactive waste toxic. Not only does she sound full of herself she also has some majority personality flaws. It seems like she tries to build herself up to compete with you and others and flaunt her "wealth" if she really has any. I don't know who would be proud of constantly gambling money away. So that in and of itself is toxic. I think you nailed it and you accidentally befriended one of the most toxic people you are likely to run into in your life.
Yup! Just needed to hear someone agree with me cause it’s so toxic and gross any extra money I have I always help people out or donate or save for future expenses
Totally agree with you. Wasting money like that isn't something I would be proud of. She is basically pointing out how careless she is. Wow... good for her. What an accomplishment. Sigh.
Right? It’s disgusting to listen to
