But it is not bad either. People can understand why someone is selfish. But usually, common people don't make friend with this kind of people. They want to be helped but they don't want to help other. They want to be understood, but they don't want to understand others. Some selfish person ended up in lonely. But sure, some person want to be lonely and prefer to be alone. It is all a matter of choice.

@LadyDuck seems the ownership of money and power make people think they can do anything

@ifa225 Selfish people always existed, may be even more in the past. Think to those rich people who had slaves.

@ifa225 We don't respect liers;but sometimes telling a simple lie can avoid a great loss.Similarly sometimes you have to be selfish to save your own or others' interests.

This is the two faces of being selfish. Sometimes it is not good for ourself, but sometimes we need it to make us feel safe. As long as it is good for you just go on

We have all been taught not to be selfish, but there are times when you have to adopt this attitude to be happy and that others do not take advantage of you.

I believe in Karma, what you get is what you have been done. Let other take an advantage from us, good deeds only return to who do good

I try not to be selfish and always share. My family comes first if we are short on anything.

I am becoming more unselfish day by day. During childhood I was quite selfish.

This may sound bad, but I'm learning to be a little selfish. Unfortunately, she was always the best I could for others. I gave everything I could, selfless help, kindness, attention, love. Meanwhile, I always lost myself and was used in some way. I am still a very empathetic and helpful person, but I am also learning to think about myself, about my needs and dreams.

Sometimes it is tiring to give while in the other hand we don't get anything by doing that. I believe, everything good things that we have done will return to us in some way, somehow. Perhaps not now we will get it, maybe in the next few weeks, months or years . Don't stop doing good

@ifa225 I will definitely not stop, it's a part of me and I wouldn't be able to completely get rid of it :)
