Bragging about your kindness

I have a friend. He's kind and like to help each other. But after a while i noticed something about him, he likes to brag and talk about his kindness to people, it feels like he wanted to help people so he can brag about it. I honestly didn't feel comfortable around thid guy, and i don't want to receive anything from him because i know that if i ever get help from him he'll tell everyone about it, and i don't want that

That usually means one of two things

1) His kindness is a means to manipulate people and its a red flag.

2) He suffers from low self-esteem and requires the validation of others to feel better about himself.

The second is not as malign, but it does make the altruism hollow and can be difficult to be around.
