It is common that some people are selfish .have you seen or experienced any of the selfish acts by the people near you or known to you .....this happened in my class there is a girl in my class who usually doesnt speaks to anyone . one day a friend on mine asked for a pen to her ... she was having an extra pen right in front of her and after he has asked for pen she took the pen and kept it inside her bag and replieed him that she is not having a extra pen ... these kind of acts are really not human.. have experienced any of the selfish acts like this ....

Dont laugh with my answer but I think the girl simply became selfish because the one who owned the pen was generous.

Yes. I could give you many instances but this one stands out. There was someone in the famly who was on dialysis and had to be on a strict diet. One of his relatives came to see him and remained as a house guest. The lady of the house was very careful about giving the patient the right type of food and suddenly this guest says he wants to eat a particular dish knowing fully well that it would be poison for the patient.

Yes we all have. Anytime we have turned on a television we see nonstop selfless acts. You see people on there throwing money around being gluttons while there are others with nothing starving. We actually pay people to buy worthless crap. You will see sports players and music artists in really fancy fur coats and they own like 6 cars. It's completely ridiculous.

well...there are lots of people who indulge in selfish activities like these. we just have to live with them and learn to accept that people are like that. with the good comes the bad...so there are equal number of people who are not so great along with some really great folks around you.

I think being selfish is a mans way to protect what he think is his. So I almost always encounter very selfish people specially in business,.
