Is there a way to not be selfish? Are you not selfish? Explain yourself. I'm selfish. I do things for myself, and even for others because I feel good doing them. I feel good doing them. I feel good doing them. You see, I used the word "I" in them. To me, that is selfish. If you think that I think wrongly of selfishness tell it to others not me. If you do want to tell me, then you are selfish too because you are telling me to believe what you believe in, right? Your doing it for yourself.

Yes I agree. It always tickles me when people say that a person acts like they are the center of the universe. say They Are the center of Their universe! How can a person not be selfish, I think it is in their character. They are born thinking of others first. It doesn't enter their minds to think of themselves first. They are born selfless.

I'm very selfish and I'm told that I'm selfish everyday by different people. Because I won't even let my work mate use the last 20 cent credit in my phone to send her boyfriend an sms just to say sorry because they argue, because I also have a partner I love and I also wanted to send him a message saying "I love you". I also have friend who do not have a laptop and always tries to borrow mine but I never let her because I have many privacy things in my laptop and she is a kind of a person who likes to take your phone and start scrolling down to your inbox messages

I think everyone in the world are selfish, or they would not be able to live in the earth. If not, people would not after for some bright future, and world would not be as bright as now.
