Does anyone feel like, the world is populated with selfish people who only act by their instinctActually this is not the problem i have,

The problem is that i dont find any one who is rational enough, so i could talk, and get this heavy pressure off my chest,

All my surroundings people are just selfish

I feel like I'm in a trap

My friends and myself believe approximately 75% of people are selfish in nature.

Just our rough guess but sure seems difficult to find the ones who aren’t about themselves

The problem is i was fine with selfish people around me, but now I'm 32 yo,And i feel like all my life was a service for others, this is stone cold fact for me, and i need to change things around

I m bipolar and one by product of that that has been low self esteem ,so pleasing and service to others was a way to feed it. Now I feel much better and have separated myself from anyone selfish with me . Met a lady 6 months ago and we just now started at a new church and we shall see but so far they are certainly not selfish.

I’m starting over at 67

No more feeding that monster

Out with the old and in with the new

I feel so much better

Much love

I wouldn't see it as starting over, it's a new chapter. It's a chance to take a different path or just improve your current path. We are truly never starting over just opening a new door.

What annoys me is when selfish people make short notice non urgent requests and nowadays I'm more than confident to tell them no to those.

If a matter is serious then fair enough I will do things at short notice but most of the time the matters don't warrant that kind of reaction so I tell them no that's not possible and walk away!

yes, I know what you mean. Folks seem to be just going about their days as though everything is alright in the world. We ought to be working together to find solutions, not generating more money for the capitali$m monster!

I know there are a lot of selfish people in the world and other people who say things that they think that they can say and they don't care what other people are hurt or not but I noticed that people here are such a great support system
