5 Evidence That Your Partner Is Selfish

5 Evidence That Your Partner Is Selfish

Partner Is Selfish

A relationship can not last without the efforts and concessions from both partners. Everyone must do the best to take care of other one, understanding and being with our partner when he/she is in need. But sometimes one partner tends to take everything from the other without giving anything in return. To help you identify a selfish partner, here are 5 telltale signs.
A healthy relationship is based on solid principles of affection, sharing and mutual respect. But sometimes this balance is overturned by a partner whose actions or words reflect extreme selfishness, which in the long run, eventually exhaust each other and suffocate the flame between them. To find out if your partner has a selfish behavior, discover the following 5 signs.

5 signs your partner is extremely selfish

1 - Never uses salutation or appreciation
For a relationship to last over time, it must be nurtured and preserved. Mutual efforts, small gestures of affection and tenderness, compliments and sweet words, especially in difficult situations, are the elixir of life. So if you feel that you do every day more to satisfy your partner while the latter does not even dare to thank you or compliment you, you're exhausting yourself unnecessarily. His/her selfish nature prevents him/her from appreciating everything you do something for him/her.
2 - Never asks forgiveness
As humans, we all make mistakes and we can, by gestures or words, hurt the other person. When proper person realizes his odd, she/he did the best to make amends. However, a selfish person will never want to admit that she/he was wrong and will never ask you for forgiveness, even though it is fully aware of his/her mistake. Besides, she/he will do everything to convince you that what happened is your fault, even accuse you of being too demanding to have affected his/her judgment and influenced his/her decision, or just to be "crazy". Do not be fooled by its handling. A selfish partner will be only glad to exploit your love so as to make you wear the hat!
3 - His/Her insecurities impact your daily life
Insecurity is the result of all these fears that lurk inside us. It is often the source of extreme and counterproductive behaviors that aim to hide the feeling of weakness and vulnerability felt by the sufferer. Thus, you may notice that your partner demonstrated an excessive and unjustified jealousy, a constant need for attention, a hyper-competitiveness and even an anger and a persistent frustration.
You will also notice that he/she oscillates between the role of the invincible hero  and the vulnerable victim, and he/she makes no effort to improve. In this case, do not let the promises of love and eternal happiness blind you and keep you from realizing that you are facing a toxic situation.
4 - unbalanced relationship forces 
In a healthy family, partners openly discuss their projects and their worries and do not hesitate to seek advice from each other when it comes to important decisions. But when you're dealing with a selfish partner, you will never be able to make a decision even if it affects you together.
Apart from the flowery language and the manipulative phrases. His/her two main arguments to justify such behavior are: "I know better than you" or "I do not trust you."
Gradually, as the relationship lasts, you will tend to repress your character and to restrain your mind, which will eventually transform into submissive, weak and unable to support yourself.
Do you think that this enormous sacrifice worth it?
5 - The emotional and verbal abuse becomes a habit
A selfish person always needs to be the center of attention, so he/she will not hesitate to bring you down and humiliate you to better "shine".
It will have no effort about silencing you or make fun of you and your opinions, especially in the presence of others. It will also tend to use a sarcastic and ironic tone with you, and to minimize the importance of your personal interests. In addition, it will turn to derision your problems, even the most delicate, and will not hesitate to issue derogatory and brutal comments .
If you ever get upset, this is obviously not the fault of his/her lack of tact and empathy but its due to your excessive susceptibility and sensitivity.
