In our circle, it''s definitely the guys that brag more. My husband doesn''t at all, though, so he''s an exception to the rule in our crowd. The guys will talk more about what things cost, I guess.
I was watching that Millionaire Matchmaker show, and Patti called one of the guys a ''bragasaurus'' - I thought that was so funny![]()

Luckily we don''t have friends that brag. I think people who brag are insecure.

To answer the thread's title, it depends on the men and the women.
To answer the question in the thread, no I don't. I don't associate with those types of people.

HAHAH! I''d probably ask when the next BBQ is and offer to bring some hot dogs! hAHA! I''d just avoid the debt conversation completely... it is sooo AKWARD! Your story is funnier though!Date: 3/16/2009 11:44:24 AM

I recall having a conversation with my ex-friend and her husband that went like this:
~They owe over $40,000 in property taxes not including the current year
~They had spent all of the second mortgage money they took out
~But they''re getting a $50,000 pool constructed and ''we''ll get our very own seats with our names engraved''![]()
My FI and I were so confused after that conversation. We didn''t know whether to feel bad that they were in so much debt or ask when''s the next bbq.

I think it''s equal... It''s more about personality type. I have known men and women who were very showy and braggarts. Personally that kind of behavior turns me off, so I try not to associate with them.
Uggg, hate that. My ex''s brother was like this. To make matters worse, he lived in another state and he would call and leave these long email messages:Date: 3/16/2009 5:50:26 PM

I have a friend who''s husband brags like a 5 year old with a candy bar. Everything he buys is, ''Look what I got, this is how much it cost, it''s bigger than YOURSSSS!'' I loathe him, and I wish she would divorce him because he is worthless in every way that matters besides this, but that''s another topic![]()
He was also the one that, when I got engaged and I excitedly told my friend, asked if the diamond was bigger than hers. Why, yes, yes it was. Eat THAT you jerk.
