A selfish person wants more than they give. That’s why he or she wants to receive more than they give. When most people give up a long time, will they give up when they think that their return will be larger than their investment in future?

In order to be centered, a self-centered person needs to be favored. All eyes must be on them no matter what they’re doing, selfish or altruistic.

If a self-centered person sees himself as centre of everything, he/she cannot think about what his actions might mean to other people. What is the best way to look at this? For example For sex. Blind people are too self-evident and seek help from others. They don’t really need help from any other person. A self-centered person would reach out to a blind person, catch his hand and help him across the road, not really bothering to find out if that person wanted help in the first place. Only his actions count, he wants the world to think the best of him. He does not care much what blind people think of him. The blind man doesnt like to be affected.

If a blind man was to be left alone to wait for the other side to help him, why would I help him? If he must, it is conditional (whether he has time, is not too inconvenienced, etc.).

Though the differences are subtle, they are similar in interpretation.

Selfish (in person, action, or motivation) means lacking consideration for others (i.e. lack of personal satisfaction or profit) or is concerned principally with one’s own personal profit or pleasure.

Self-centered means being preoccupied with one’s own affairs.

What are certain words of different meanings which exist in ancient world? Who would you prefer to spend time with, a selfish person or a self-centered person?

How can I be selfish, yet not morally bereft of compassion and generosity? Similarly, a self-centered person might want to further his or her objectives, whether or not that meant behaving selfishly in any given situation.

@Adel Comments My perception is similar to @Adel’s comment.. I can’t write a review of those comments as of right now. The selfish person has a strong bias toward not giving things–time, money, effort, energy, or other support to anybody other than him or herself. What appears to be more unpleasant than the alternative?

How do a self-centered person feel about his/her own situation? As the self-centered parent implies finding oneself more fascinating than anything else, be consistent and yourself more desirable. What makes the person selfish?
