I have a friend of mine who is the most conceited person I ever met. I’m not just talking about the conceited type that’s in the mirror for 2 hours getting dressed. I’m talking about that type that’s like “Nobodies better that me”, “I’m the best at everything”, that kind. He has to be the center of attention ALL the time and if he’s not, he throws a tantrum. People have repeatedly told him this is not good for a 25-year-old man. I’ve tried to tell him, in so many words that’s nice, the sun don’t rise and set on him only. That there are other people in the world. He just doesn’t get it. It’s really annoying.
Do you know anybody like this or have dealt with anyone like this? How did you do it? How did you handle them? I need all the advice I can get

being conceited at all is bad and as for him, it sounds like it's at it's worse... if I were you, I'd be questioning why I was his friend in the first place. You'd have a lot more fun with someone who was laid back. When you have to start asking for advice on how to deal with someone and just stand them, then that should be your sign to move on.

This brings up an fairly exciting aside which I have wondered about yet had no one to ask: ought to a gay human being masturbate in the front of a mirror which in reality comes as a lot as their neck? in the experience that they were truly smug, genuinely that they'd celebrate with the region of their personal stuff, ought to they merely pretend it belonged to some different person that they theory changed into warm and bypass for it, or ought to it truly is too a lot of a stretch of the mind's eye?

When I first met my husband he acted like that. I wrote him a note and told him how I felt. I didn't go around him for a while, next time I saw him he was a changed man. If your friend value your friendship he'll try to change.

Just tell him to shut up and stop acting like a baby. If it gets worse, cut him off completely. It'll teach him that he ain't all that and it'll be less stress for you.

Choose your friends wisely. Ultimately he might change if he loses all his friends due to his behavior. But that is up to him. What is up to you is how much time you endure a person like this.

yes, a co-worker. Indulge her, ignore her, and moved on. Its sad to see a person need to be better than everyone else so bad. But hey, what can you do.

if he needs to be the center of attention, then he is not as confident as you think. people that need attention, have low self esteem. he tells himself he is the best, probably because no one else does. someone needs to put him in his place. i honestly dont have friends like that, because i cant be bothered. i am confident, carry myself with high self esteem and dont need anyoone telling me about myself. i dont want friends that constantly need reassurance about themselves. too much work!!

Yes, I do know someone like that.
That's why I'm moving out-of state.

i am not conceited because conceited people have faults. since i have no faults, i can't be conceited.
tell him to look when his eyes are open.
