Everyone has their moments. But overall I'm definitely not a selfish person. I enjoy giving to others. Giving to others has so many faces. It may nothing more than kind words, or it may be money needed to get through a rough time.

Not as much as I could be.
-
I try not to be, but I think that sometimes I am.

A little I guess, but if I'm ever about to do something/back down from doing something, I think about how it will effect other people. With that inmind, I usually change my decision and end up turning something down to save anothers feelings, or pursueing something for someone no matter how scared I am.

Yes, except with my family. Then maybe. :)

Yes I am. I only ever do what makes me happy...fortunately what makes me happy is being kind and helpful whenever I can..so I win and those with whom I interact win as well. I used to do things that didn't make me happy..did them grudgingly, muttering all the while..felt "put upon"..did things out of "obligation, duty" rather than with a joyful heart. So yes, I am clearly a very selfish person. :)

I'm selfish and I know it. I like things to go my way and I really dislike compromise. But I am unselfish in my selfishness - in that I try not to get into situations where my selfishness would hurt other people. Hence why I have no plans to start a family and I'm very careful about who I have relationships with. I spend a lot of time on my own as a result, but I'm kind of OK with that.

Everyone is selfish to some degree. I would (and have) not eat so my kids can eat, for example, but when times are good, I buy myself stuff that I really don't need, and I take time for myself whenever I can, and I really enjoy when I'm home alone! For perfectly selfish reasons!

Yes. Everyone is selfish at some point. Literally EVERYONE on earth, and off of it.

I consider myself incredibly selfish, but I try to control it.
-
Yes. But I learned that about myself a few months ago, and I'm trying hard to fight it. I've changed a lot since then, but I still have to conciously decide not to be selfish.
-
not particularly
-
I consider myself to be at least moderately selfish. Although I am also generous and helpful, so it kind of balances out. Most people have more flaws than gifts.
-
unfortunately, but not as selfish as some
-
Yes, I like being a little selfish, but I try not to be too selfish.
