writes:If you knew someone who was very proud of themselves and their achievements, and gets jealous when others outperform them, would it be okay to keep your own achievements to yourself around them to prevent bruising their ego? Keep in mind that you are not lying to them. If they asked about your achievements you would tell them and not lie. I would like to know how you'd respond to this question if: {a} This person was your close friend/best friend{b} This person was your spouse/partner(c) This person was you and you found out your close friend/best friend or spouse/partner had kept some of their achievements from you because they were worried you'd be jealousThanks guys!

a) I'd get bored of it and tell them as their best friend that people think they are a dick. Tell them to stop being a spoilt little brat and learn that the world does not revolve around them. If your friends can't tell you home truths then who can?
b) I wouldn't be with someone like that as I would find them really really annoying and I would never be with someone where I had to HIDE THINGS I did well in case it made them throw a sulk. Also, are they 4? Does their mummy love them a little too much?
c) If I'm the proud one then I don't get why they would keep their stuff to them self. After all I am great and perfect in every way and do not have a pride issue. You're the one with the problem, what are you saying about me anyway WAH WAH WAH WAH WAH my mum thinks I'm cool.
Good Luck!! xx
