How to use "Boastful" in context?
If someone is boastful, they are very proud of themselves or their accomplishments. This can be a problem because it can be a trait that leads to arrogance and self-promotion.

If a person is boastful, it is important that they are aware of how this makes others feel and that they take steps to change.
