Some people may actually find bragging funny, but it's usually very tiring.
However, there are some simple ways to deal with people who are used to self-praise.
One of them – quite an effective one – we are going to share with you in this article.
And it consists in trying to drive out a wedge with a wedge and start bragging about yourself.
As if by accident, start colourfully describing your successes in any area, and then, as if coming to your senses, apologize and add a phrase like, “Oh, I seem to be bragging. It’s time to stop – only losers do that.”
After this, it is unlikely that the braggart will want to continue singing his own praises.
Alternatively, try to start a conversation about a mutual friend (or a celebrity) and be sure to mention that you would like this person even more if it weren’t for his or her constant habit of bragging.
Be sure to ask your interlocutor if your feelings coincide.
Most likely, in the future the braggart will try to avoid such mistakes.
Earlier we wrote about the habits that give away a loser.
