@olesyaluraschi: Why humblebragging makes people like you less than just bragging. Nine studies from Harvard Business School researchers found humblebraggers were liked less and seen as less competent than people who simply bragged. #psychology #careeradvice #socialpsychology #corporatelife

What does humble bragging sound like? Is it like “I think I’m ugly but everyone say I’m pretty” ?!???

I think a lot of ppl perceive it as humble bragging when it could just be someone talking about what’s going on with them. Ppl are very insecure after all.

Tell this to 30% of the accounts on LinkedIn, who don’t even bother to disguise it: “I was so humbled to receive the blah blah blah award…” yeesh. At least it’s one way to tell that an account is less likely to be a bot… although AI probably copied this also.

Y'all need to have an arrogant/narcissistic friend and then you will see what's really annoying.

It’s on par with dry begging “oh you have a car? That’s cool, I wish I did…I have to pay 30 dollars to get home from work today….” Like just as me for a ride, dont do that hinting around shit bc I’ll pretend I can’t take a hint.

i have a coworker who only humble brags. it is exhausting to be around. an occasional humble brag is not the worst thing, but if that's all someone does, it feel insincere. It feels like they're constantly making a bid for attention without letting things come up in conversation naturally. like the study says, why not just be straight up and say it with your chest instead of being passive and weird about it?

It can be a genuine fear of coming across as arrogant though. But it’s not a good solution clearly

Could it be that people who are offended by this are just jealous?? 😅

I don't like people who think this way, so the feeling is mutual. If I'm trying not to be in your face about something and you don't like me for it - I don't like you either

even more insufferable when you frame the brag as actually coming from someone else "someone told me they thought this painting could be in a museum but I don't think I'm that good"

I wish there weren’t so many social rules and we could just base character on intention and action rather than how someone phrases complimenting themselves 😭 I just move on. Maybe people need that reassurance sometimes and I’d rather not judge people because it always comes from somewhere.

I hate to brag, but during a good stretch of the mid 2010s, I ran a tiny conglomerate of Facebook groups based around the concept of shameless bragging 😂

True. I just openly brag and ppl love it. Ex: someone says “wow what you just said was very helpful, I never thought of it this way” and I say “I know, I’m extremely smart”

I have autism and I am always overthinking everything I say and have been accused of bragging when just sharing things. So I learned never to outright brag about something. I need to show that insecurity that I’m having on the outside. So now this is conflicting information for me and idk what the right thing is because experience has shown me otherwise now I’m panicking people think this of me
