Boasting?

Aibu to get a bit jarred off with the excessive boasting on social media? We're all mature friends but for god sake, one of us is unashamedly ramming her good fortune down our necks. The group of us have all done well and have professions and are independently financially settled. Isn't one of us that wouldn't be happy for other people to be fortunate in life. Said boaster friend just paired up with a big earner and wouldn't have her financial good fortune if she relied on her own earnings. A bit of decorum and class is required! Or am I just being a jealous awful woman :-)? I've always detested bragging!

Is she bragging about what she has materially due to getting with someone rich? That is a bit rubbing it in if so. It does sound like a bit of jealousy from you though.

@kissmethere that's exactly it. I just find it cringeworthy.

I've been googling the situation and it throws up interesting points.
