how would you feel ?

i have a friend who constantly has to compete with my lifestyle. whether it’s something small as a coffee pot or something larger. she’s one of those people you can’t talk too , overly opinionated and a big bragger. i’m very passive , i keep to myself and don’t gloat.

currently pregnant at the same time, i wanted one of each and found out i’m pregnant with my second boy. it’s not 100% confirmed but about 90% positive it’s a boy. i’ve been struggling with some gender disappointment.

she just found out she’s having a girl and has done nothing but gloat in my face , brag and constantly talk about it. i told her i was disappointed because we had talked about what would happen if one of us had the sex the other wanted and we both agreed we’d be disappointed but that it was okay.

so i was open about being disappointed i was having a boy and she got what she wanted. and the first day was okay , but later that evening it became all about her having a girl , her and her bf have done nothing but brag , boast and make it very know. her boyfriend is my boyfriends brother. me and her don’t really connect except we both have kids around the same age and are apart of the same family through our relationships.

am i wrong to be hurt by the continuous gloat ?

is it selfish of me to wish she’d talk about it a little less and maybe not as much to me at least until i can process my own feelings especially while pregnant
