Are you Self-centered?

Aunty virus
By Aunty virus

It's no wonder why self-centeredness is typically viewed as the most unappealing personality trait in a potential friend or partner. Most of us struggle to maintain a sense of compassion and understanding toward others.

Self-centered people, on the other hand, don’t bother to take the time to understand another person’s point-of-view or feelings. Here is a look into the world of the self-centered person and an explanation of common personality traits associated with self-centeredness.

There are various degrees of being self-centered, but the general traits are the same: putting themselves first, only caring about their needs and wants, being unable to see another’s perspective, being uncaring of others. There are times we all have been guilty of one or all of those traits, but what sets self-centered people apart is that they behave that way all the time.

Dealing with self-centered people can be very difficult and frustrating, especially if you are in a serious relationship with them. Those who are self-centered tend to treat the people badly because they view their partners as nothing more than objects that are in place to feed them emotionally. If you are romantically linked to someone who is self-centered, it’s almost as if you are stuck in a catch 22; if you leave, they will convince themselves you were not good enough, but if you stay, you validate their behavior by giving them the impression they are worth staying with, despite their abusive ways.

True and good thing some people didn't get married while stupid and blinded by emotion.

I can't even get past the 1st question!! :-0

1. Your attitude about keeping your home clean is:

"I do my own cleaning because no one else can get it clean enough. It must be so clean that the floors shine like silver, and there's never a speck of dust to be found on furniture." - Nope.

"I never clean my own house because I don't have to. I use my feminine wiles and get someone else to do it for me." - Nope.

"I love a clean home and want it neat and tidy" is about as far as it got. The rest of it is out.." but I hire a good housekeeper because I'm way above the menial tasks of cleaning a house. "

So I dunno ..

I admit it... I took the test.... I am a Drama Queen... and not scared to admit it:-)

The Drama Queen

You are the queen of drama, also known as "histrionic" in the world of psychology. A histrionic person displays overly exaggerated mannerisms and may find herself in hot water when she doesn't think before she speaks. Flirting is a means to an end, with the end being anything she desires. She finds meanings in words and gestures where there are none. She lives to be the center of attention, using her appearance and flirting as well as using drama to remain in the limelight.

I always look out for number 1, does that make me self centered?

how can anyone be in a deep romantic relationship with a selfcentered person, unless the first one is naively ridiculously generous.

a sane person wouldn't go deep with another self centered person.

I know the dark side of my personality, but if i tell you, i'll have to kill you.

Yalla!
