  They're in need of recognition. Their family can't give them, so they turn to friends, brag, make themselves feel good. They're only deceiving themselves and making less friends in the process however.
  
  Yea, actually i'm also in need of recognition, just that i don't brag cause ... generally nothing to brag about =_="

  hmm, outside of sgforums, i dont really see boastful people, except for one..
  
  We call him Big Cannon God, in hokkien is tua pao xian..
  
  Really, we never trusted him because he really really brag a lot..
  
  My advice is let them be swimming around in their own delusion. Whats the point of bringing them down to earth?
