One of my friends always brags about how she was the main factor in winning the basketball tournament our team was in. She also lies way to much. She's nice and all but I'm really getting sick of her. All of my other friends agree with me. What should I do?

Get the team together to confront her. Let her tell the whole team that it was "her" that won the tournament. Remind her that there is more than 1 person on a team. You could all practice your dribbling...

everybody hates a brag, including me, i know how you feel, i had a friend just like that once. dont use stupid lines like ' there's no i in team', just confront her, say that you are not the only one who thinks that she is getting overboard with the bragging. sure, she may have helped contribute to the teams victory, but she couldnt have done it on her own, maybe she should try it and she how good she is then. tell her she should get over herself and try delflating her head a little, also try say it nicely, because youre helping her because she is making everybody dislike her by bragging waaay to much, its ok maybe once or twice, but more than that is just sort of self obsessed

Try being a friend that doesn't worry about your friends short comings ,perhaps she might recognize that she doesn't have to impress you ,that you like her just because you like her , and then maybe she want feel the need to brag.

Tell her enough of the bragging and enough of the lies and friends don't like it. Good luck.

Just sit her down and talk to her about what you don't like about her but tell her you can still be friends and you care for her but if she gets mad then that means she can't stand being told the truth.

I think you should talk to your friend about your probs . Myabe she has probs with you too . Talk about your feelings and you might get closer . Take some time off of eachother . Maybe see eachother once a week .

If i were you I would shake it off, ignore her and hang out with your true friends. I'm not saying never talk to her again, but just hang out with some other friends.

Take her aside and tell her quietly what you and the others think. Don't break her heart - do it in a friendly way and it should all work out...........
