[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Also, some people brag and talk nonstop to fill a void. Maybe she's uncomfortable in her own skin or one of those people who can never be alone and always has to have people around in order to feel good... and if she's choosing to do this with you specifically, then its likely because she feels some need to compensate for something around you. Perhaps you are more secure in your (less social/more solitary?) life So just smile, nod, and feel secure in your own skin that you do not need to overshare and humble brag like this with anyone else. [/quote] This is helpful advice and perspective, thank you. Obviously I know there isn’t much to do here, but the incessant bragging is tiring and I get exasperated, especially when I’m stressed which I have been lately. I don’t want to blow up family over something relatively minor like this, so it’s helpful to be reminded of this perspective [/quote]
