Stop being arrogant and boastful

[Happy_77]

I've noticed that many guy (sometimes women) feel the need to constantly brag. They often boast about how smart they are, how much money they make, how many sexual partners they've had, the car they drive etc. All to compete with other men/women or impress to the opposite sex. Personally, I'm tired of it. If you are happy, successful, and doing well in life, you don't need to brag. Your achievements will speak for themselves. You will appear stronger and more confident if you do not brag. It shows you don't need validation from others. Additionally, many people who brag have nothing to back it up. They say they will go to Harvard and make a million dollars a year while they aren't even in school or working on anything. Don't say your going to do something, actually go do it. Talking doesn't mean anything. Most people can decipher through the bullshit. I just want people who brag, from both genders, to realize that they aren't fooling anyone. Neither accept how your life is or change it, but don't fuel your ego with nonexistent accomplishments.

When girls are asked why they are attracted to bad boys, the often mention that this typ of guy is just so arrogant and therefore appears attractive. Studies also show that narcissistic persons appear more attractive to the opposite sex. If it did not look attractive, such people would become evolutionarily extinct. That is why in my opinion there will always be arrogant people

Most of this behavior is due to insecurity. They say these things, not for you, but for themselves. Each boast or brag is an attempt to reaffirm that they are worth something. This is also the reason for the extreme aversion they have to someone countering them when it happens.

This is very true. I dislike arrogance also. I find it to be a huge turn-off. Any attractiveness the person had gets canceled out to me if they are full of themselves.

[Dutchgirl97]

Its because they are insecure and want to make you believe that they are somthing that they wish to be.

You are so on the mark. Something I need to hear. I'll go through days where I need to make myself stop having opinions after 6:00 PM. Unfortunately those days don't often fall on the same day I'm on this forum but you are in the money.

It helps the real ones blend in and find what they are looking for by dividing gold digger attention. What's not to love about it.

[Raja1881]

Well said. Why this hasn't got many up votes, I have no clue. Priorities is a lost case these days.

[Tom204]

It's true and I have done it before myself. I'm trying to stop doing it all together cause it really doesn't benefit anybody to do so and can only do more harm

[zagor]

I don't brag because I don't give a shit what other people think of me.

Why not it's fun filled humor.
Fuck the ego trip

[Cryptic-Game]

Absolutely. We ought not brag. We need to be more confident.

Ego is gross. Just look at fuck-head Trump.
