How do you tell someone you love dearly like a brother or sister that they are one of the most disgustingly conceited people you've ever met in your entire life?
without being rude.

Honest truth

Wow. A tough one. : (
Uh... why don't you start off coming off really friendly, and just let them know beforehand that you're not trying to hurt they're feelings or anything of the like, but you just wanted to tell them that they've -seemed- a bit... y'know, different, lately.
:scream_cat:
I'm sorry; I probably didn't help much...
-
do you still want to be friends with them afterwards?

I agree with Helms

I have 3 sisters... one of them being extremely conceited at times. Just approach him/her away from everyone else, tell them that their attitude is a little too naive and ask them to please just back off a little bit. If that doesn't work, tell them to get off of their fucking high horse. That's what I did, she acts almost 95% differently... she still has her moments, and we are good friends. Then again, you may not be able to change them until they actually get into the real world and realise that they aren't as great as they thought they were. That's what made such a bigger difference with my sister!

lol YES I still want to be friends!helmsy, the thing is like I said he's like a brother to me. He's the type that'll kill just to make sure I'm ok. And I don't think me telling him will make him hate me for the rest of his life but I think he'll be hurt and get offended. And my biggest weakness is seeing my friends or family, people I love, hurting in any way at all possible. And I was thinking, maybe I shouldn't tell him, but then I think, what kind of friend would I be if I didn't tell him only to get even worse reactions when he faces other people. And it's not a subtle ego. It's a HUUUUUUGE EGO! Like, I just want to slap him upside the face sometimes. Like say sometimes we'll be in a store or whatever with our friends and he'll point out a girl and say watch me get her in 10 minutes. Or when he said something about my two best friends who both dated him by the way and said he can't help it that the ladies can't resist him. I think I either almost threw up or died laughing. I wanted to tell him so badly they were just young and stupid. He's really not a bad guy. He's great, funny, and sweet, and caring. He's good looking and all I guess but his pride is very unattractive.

Just start the sentence with "Yo, bitch!" That should work fine for telling anyone anything.
-
oh bob you have the perfect solution to everything! lolhelmsy.... that's a WHOLE lot of love.
-
Well, you could point out the things he says as being conceited... You know, just say, "Wow, that was a little ridiculous." or something like that. Then he won't get as mad. Maybe. But it's really not your job to go around pointing out other people's personality flaws.
-
that's a good idea. Quote: But it's really not your job to go around pointing out other people's personality flaws. wow that's a little OD. I don't go around telling people they're too this or not enough that. sorry boo that's not me.
