I have a friend who always try to exalt her ideas over others,since she is my friend, I always try to accommodate her bragging for friendship shake,so that she want feel hurt.I fight with her for one thing,she makes rude remarks on others,if they excel in something.Then she feels that I am not loyal to her.Do you think so?When she perform a task, she says it is because of her natural talents that she does the work with perfection,she never acknowledges others help.She states that if they were better they would have done it,since they do not want to face the failure they are helping her and trying to get credit for her work.I totally disagree do you feel the same?

I hope you won't get mad at me by saying that your friend is a little self-centered. She just wants to talk about her greatness and if somebody seems to be a threat to her, her initial reaction would be to say bad things against that person. You as her friend is a really good friend coz you point out things to her that are way off. i hope she realizes that if she continues to be that way, no one will ever think of befriending her. And that she might lose you too.

Ignore her. She should go away or stop being boastful. "One who is boastful loses everything". My mom used to say that to me all the time, it's why I'm scared brag about anything.

I agree. You've done your part in telling her the error of her ways, yet she didn't listen. So there's nothing more that you can do but let her learn her lesson the hard way. I'm sure that her performance can speak for itself and sooner or later, everyone will know whether her bragging have merits. So yeah, just ignore.

I have a friend who is a little bit like this, and one of the things that annoys me the most is that she cannot seem to admit that there are any other people who are right when she does not think the same as they do. She is always trying to force her opinions on them and this means that many find her annoying and talk about her behind her back. She is a very good friend to me, but unfortunately there are times that I cannot abide her because of the fact that she can talk but she is not all that good at listening.

As you said I have also such friend..She is my good friend..She have the same problem.She always like to control others by pressing her likes.she is a open type character.She says the things with out considering the people even they are her parents,friends and pricipal.I was wondering by watching her behaviour..She is sensitive too..She suffers in her home because of some family problems.She says that they are not loving her.I can not follow her concepts.It is really difficult to me to be with her as a friend..Thank you

I used to have a friend like that in the usa. I just ignored her when she started talking this way. I did this as to not come down on her, and face losing my friendship. Have a great day there.

i totally disagree as well. but just a piece of advice if you really are friends you should tell her about her attitude there is always a room for changes. its possible that she is not aware that what shes doing is wrong maybe you need to open her mind a bit and tell her that its wrong and she need to change that because if she really treats you as a friend she will believe in what you says.

hello friend, beware of such friends, they are not just good for us they always think of their safety and profit first. No matter how much we do help them they never count it and take into consideration. I have suffered a lot because of such friends, and i was so innocent at that time , i didn't really recognize that. But by the time i realized i lot so much of my valuable time , so i decided that next minute i wont be with them and started to be far from them but maintained good relation .

Hi, I also don't agree with your friend. She is very rude and very boastful. We can find many people around us who feel that they are the best. They know everything and no one is there like them. But they are wrong. Such people are very arrogant and are not ready to listen others opinions. But such people lose the respect from others. Always soft and polite people are respected everywhere.
