"I am so proud" vs "I am too proud"

Both phrases are correct, but they convey slightly different meanings. 'I am too proud' implies an excessive amount of pride, often with a negative connotation. On the other hand, 'I am so proud' simply expresses a strong feeling of pride without implying excessiveness.
