conceited
Full of oneself
Conceited describes someone who has an excessively high opinion of themselves, their abilities, or their appearance.
A conceited person assumes others share their self-admiration and may talk about themselves constantly or dismiss others' accomplishments.
He's so conceited he checks his reflection in every window.
The word carries strong disapproval—unlike confident or self-assured, conceited implies the self-regard is unwarranted or obnoxious.
