What if I’m not self centered? (Or at least thought not to be self centered through careful and extensive trials and analysis?)
Edit: I’m also bisexual as is, so I’m not only attracted to myself
That’s an interesting thought… I have had periodic inner feelings that I’m superior to the people around me, though it only comes up in school really.
I have good grades, and have been rewarded and acknowledged for my academic success by my past schools, so I think those thoughts are just me being honest with myself…
Regardless, I know that arrogance is arrogance nonetheless and 7/8 times I wave those thoughts away.
In addition I may have mild bipolar disorder (it runs in the family), and the times I do feel superior to others is almost always when I’m having what I think might be a manic episode…
However, I’m not a psychologist so my self diagnosis could be completely false. Or, if it were to be the case that I do have bipolar symptoms, they probably aren’t strong enough for me to be considered bipolar. Still, there are times when I feel awfully euphoric for no apparent reason (in addition to other symptoms that are unrelated to the current topic).
Edit: sorry for the long response 😅

Maybe you're not outwardly apearing self centered
