Why No One Likes Self Obsessed People?

Self obsessed people are their own best friends. However, when it comes to making friends with others, they are not too successful. No one really likes to be around self obsessed people. People may tolerate some phases of self obsession, but to actually live with narcissist people is nothing less than a task!

We all consciously or sub-consciously avoid self obsessed people in our day to day lives. We do it without even realising it sometimes. Here are some walks of life in which self obsessed people face problems.

Self Obsessed People

Extended Family

Parents may tolerate their own children even if they are self obsessed, but cousins, aunts and uncles won't. If you are one of the narcissist people, you will grow up with cousins who ignore you and carefully exclude you from all their games. You will also be the aunt or uncle whom everyone seems to runaway from.

Children

You will be surprised to know that even the children of self obsessed people hate to put up with them. The moment they become teenagers, kids realise that their parents are too full of themselves. Even kids do not take their parents seriously if they are narcissistic people.

Office Colleagues

Imagine working with someone who is always so full of himself/herself. Office colleagues have low tolerance for bad attitude anyway. They never like to hang out with colleagues who are self obsessed people. You will never enjoy a supportive work environment or get along with your boss if you don't come out of your narcissism.

Friends

It is very hard for self obsessed people to have really good friends. But the fact remains that such people need friends more than anyone else. This is because they always need a crowd around them to make themselves feel better. You may gather a lot of people around you by spending money or being socially active, but true friends are not won over in such ways.

So self obsessed people face problems in the above walks of life. As you can see, this list covers almost all the relationships of your adult life. We can conclude that self obsessed people are not liked by anyone because they are surprisingly insulated to others around them. Who is the most self obsessed person you have met in your life.
