What is a humble brag?
When you pretend to be modest about something you really want to brag about.Clever_User_Name wrote: »Just_J_Now wrote: »Then there's the dude who I thought was cool but he humble brags WAY TOO MUCH.
This one's me
Wrong again.
I still don't understand... do you have an example?
Example "I literally just got out of bed when I snapped that selfie and these dudes really want to creep on me? really dude, gheeze"
No part of that is humble though?
Humble brags happen a lot on MFP, usually it's a man or woman that posts a selfie and complains about their body while others are looking at them saying you look fantastic then they continue about how they look horrible.
Wouldn't that just be a difference of opinions?
Usually, no, they are looking for an ego stroke but trying to pretend they aren't.

But how do you confirm this?
Just the way they present themselves. It's pretty obvious when a person is really looking for advice vice fishing for complements. Let's just say, you will know the difference when you see it.

In any event, I do hope we see a Chit Chat thread entitled Vice Fishing in the very near future.
I'm sure that would have a different flavor...fish?0 -

Nuh uh, there's nothing wrong with nice conversation
Exactly, since it's a nice spring day...or at least I wish it was.

It comes down to judgement of intent but I feel it’s hard to truly judge someone’s intent behind a post. Sometimes someone who you consider extremely confident in fact has a low self esteem. The deeper issue is actually depressing if you stop and think about it. Why would someone need consistent approval from strangers anyways?!
Just a thought.
I'll check my diary, I'm sure I covered this with my therapist and...oh wait, TMI must talk to him next time about my over sharing!

You're deep
It’s a gift like a double edged sword. My depth and empathetic nature has put me in such compromising situations. I *kitten* hate it.
You are a good person and we are lucky to have people like you around.
