Selfish (sel-fish) adj. Devoted to or caring only for oneself; concerned primarily with one's own interests, benefits, welfare, etc., regardless of others.
Here's the thing. Selfish is not, in itself, a bad word. Humans, by nature, are selfish creatures. It's okay to be selfish, to think about yourself and only yourself every once in a while. Just like it's okay to have a few drinks. It's when those few drinks turn into a few more and all the sudden you're an alcoholic narcissist that we have a problem. The trick is being selfish in the right way.
In a sentence:
~ "A $500 pair of shoes when you haven't even paid your part of the rent? You are the most selfish person I have ever met!"
~ To a run-ragged mother of three, a selfish dose of bubble baths and steamy novels is just what the doctor ordered.
Help me come up with ways to be selfish! Give me a good example and a bad example.
