One Upping

I think most of us face this kind of  situation like this just one upping each other ,we sometimes hide sth bad from other person to make ourselves feel better ,but that justt is the way that you are trying to build up a kind of self-esteem in your heart .

I have one friend who always run into someone and pretend like she is doing better than she really are….its a litlle funy picture cause I know the truth 

I don't think I've ever braged about myself to someone who's one up on me :P 

Yet, I definitely understand how Mason feel, because obviously, I HAVE been so jealous of someone who's superior to me.

my msn :

come  here more 

Humm I don't do that…It is called lie! Lying to everyone about you being better than pretende to be is a big bullshit…Lies are always discovereds! So after,how will you be in front of your friends?

In front that,friendship is always a little shaken!

No, I haven't run into someone and had to pretend like I am doing something well which actullay I didn't. Lying is a trouble. When you lied once, and then you would have to lie again to cover the privous one. This situation seems like to go on and on, and never be stopped. So, just telling the truth. or try to change the subject if unfortunately one day you're in this situation like that, which your friends or rivals keep asking questions you wouldn't like to answer.

this was a nice video, i have just joined english baby and found this video really good lesson for beginners like me.

There is nothing more valuable in this world than peace of mind. As you grow up you start to understand that people's opinion doesn't actually matter. What's the point to tell lies and brag about something you didn't achieve, if you know that in fact you are a loser, but not a winner. There are better ways to raise your self-esteem. I recommend that you tried to do something significant and really important. If you gain your goal,you won't notice others' remarks, or at least they won't be important to you.

'Respect yourself, don't be blind', your countryman sings. I think he's got the point.

With my respect I think you jump to conclusion when you underestimate others opinion. Instead you can express your viewpoint without being so rude .the other thing bragging is the weak ppl deception I don’t wanna say like you as you said in your reply, but anyway I advice you to face facts instead of showing your foolish by bragging. Ppl are not so stupid as you think to believe everything they heard but sometimes pretend so. Either They don’t want to Embarrass others or they hate clashing ( wanna live in peace) like me .Hence leaders inspired by their weakness points and turn them to strength

omg you guys are so childish! in which world are you actually living? on the earth? we brag couse we can't show our weaknesses! If u always say the truth somewone can abuse it and you are getting vulnerabe! People grow up! 

sometimes ppl doing such things turning into bragging on each other to show how good they are . even things are going worse with them. i don't know why lying while things won't go better if we lie. i think we should accept the truth in athletic spirit even we are beaten.

I think is better to say the true about your self or that you have really got. never know when people get the true about you and then you are seen like a lyer.

it will be complicated to keep theirs friendships, since they are rivalrys companys now, i hope they value theirs true friendship, after all its what really matters.

what a stupid thing to brag!!! I´ve never brag to someone i think is better show what u really are and what you´ve really got, and people is gonna Love you always ;))

there are a ton of people who are brags,, wherever , sometimes they are telling the true but sometimes they are lying , but in my opinion they are fools.

saludos.

I don't like to brag, only I say the true. Normally those kind of people don't like losing, she should use her conversation in a sense friendly, no like Mason was her rivarl.

i haven't runned into someone against whom i feel lower grade.and i definitely don't have to prove any of my friends that i am doing better..maybe i am doing better at present but we cannot know what will happen in the future and whether we deteriorate into worse situation or not.

and about bragging…you only fool yourself,not anyone else,right?
