Competitive People

That person who takes competitiveness from the field to your friendship. Whether it's the friend who takes credit for everything or just the girl who always wants to fight for every guy, this competitiveness can provoke irritation and anxiety.

Some people will either just get annoyed with this person or try to beat them. If the person is a close friend and is constantly trying to make everything a competition literally just tell them straight up "not everything needs to be a competition."

Most competition stems from insecurity, so it is important to recognize this. If you don't want to lose the friend, just don't let it get to you. Ignore the competitiveness or setting your friend off. If he/she says bragged about getting an A- on a test, don't boast about the A that you got. 

Try to balance your time between this competitive friend and other friends who do not feel the need to compete with you. The relationship can end up being toxic and negative so do not try to keep up with it.




If this sounds like you, then plz just stop making everything a competition. It's annoying and no one likes it.
