What do you think makes you so self centered? It’s hard to say when it’s that vague.

Selfishness, self obsession

Well in what situations does that show the most is what I was trying to ask? I think if that’s who you are overall is selfish, either accept it and find a partner who is the same and you both can be open about it this could be great or the worst relationship ever, don’t ever try to be with someone who is serious about being in a relationship because it will be so emotionally damaging for her, in terms of improving tho, it’s really a matter of developing a better sense and understanding of compassion, along with reciprocation which is what most relationships that succeed are based on. It’s hard to work on these things alone, I would recommend therapy to save you a lot of time. Maybe you could read a book by the Dali lama he talks a ton about the importance of compassion and the 5 love languages I would say can give you a better understanding of why it’s important to understand and reciprocate.
