1, inferiority complex/psychological defect
Many people love to pretend to be vain. In the final analysis, it is because of its own shortcomings. Psychologically, what a person lacks depends on what he shows off.
For example, people with poor English will deliberately mix a few words in their speeches. Ignorant people usually like to see new things and ask others, "Hey, do you know this? I don't know, I know. " People who can't write will like to comment on other people's articles "What is this? I will definitely write better than him "and so on.
2. Life has undergone great changes.
At first, all kinds of conditions were not so good. Suddenly one day, due to various inevitable and accidental events, people get rich overnight, or all kinds of unexpected events, such as looking ordinary before and changing their appearance after plastic surgery, will lead to a sudden upsurge in a person's show-off psychology.
A boy who broke up with his girlfriend because he was poor earned a lot of money by doing business at home for a while, and then drove his sports car around the front of his ex-girlfriend's company all day, revealing an old-fashioned upstart from the inside out. That's right. "Rich people never miss a tacky opportunity." .
3, miss heart lock.
Some people don't work hard enough, but when they see that others are better off, they will feel resentful. In order to balance this psychological gap, she will consciously or unconsciously show her words and deeds closer to the superior life, even if her economic conditions and strength in all aspects are not enough to support her vanity. This is what we often call coercion.
I have seen a bridge, saying that a girl in a university dormitory claimed that her boyfriend was a German handsome guy and made overseas phone calls for more than an hour every day.
Then one day, when the girl was on the phone, her roommate accidentally called her by pressing the wrong number, and then her cell phone rang in her ear. Everyone knows that the so-called phone call for so long is just talking to herself, but in fact the girl doesn't even have a boyfriend at all.
4. Attract attention
As we all know, this is an era of eyeball economy, and various road networks are constantly emerging. Someone has come up with a way to let the media find themselves by pretending to exaggerate themselves and raising their social status, which is what we commonly call hype.
