I've noticed this several times throughout my life, I either just told myself that I'm a selfish teenager or that I'm not I have an evil side to me. For example, any member of my family will be distressed about a situation; like they are having issues with their manager at work. Everyone else in my family puts themselves in their shoes by feeling second hand distress, and trying to offer support. While I'm just there thinking to myself how annoying that I have to listen to their struggles, it's not my issue, I'M lucky to not be in their place, etc. I just feel pretty sociopathic, but the irony is that whenever I'M the one in a unfortunate situation, I want as much support, and validation from others.
