Dealing with an egoist is always more expensive, because such people, as a rule, have reduced empathy.
Such individuals strive to satisfy their own interests first and foremost, often not shying away from walking over people's heads.
How to identify an egoist at the early stages of communication and not waste a lot of time and effort on him later?
There are three main phrases that point out a selfish and often manipulative person.
"You won't be able to understand"
An egoist resorts to such a phrase when he wants to “jump off” the topic or, on the contrary, make you run after him asking to clarify the situation.
A person with adequate thinking will never express himself in such a way. He will rush to explain to you something that you may have difficulty understanding.
"I'm just being honest"
An egoist does not care about your feelings. This means that rudeness and boorishness are not alien to him.
Don't waste your time on rude people. After all, a person is a person to be able to communicate correctly and politely.
"I don't need anyone"
If an egoist has told you something like this, do him a favor and leave him alone.
After all, very often such a statement is intended to point out to you the fact that the interlocutor has low emotional intelligence and is not capable of building serious relationships.
