The selfish person
自私的人
He Covers His“Black Hole”Personality
他很会隐藏自己的“阴暗”性格。
The selfish person knows that if he acts like himself right away, he would nevermake friends. Instead, he starts by acting like a very polite cordial person. At first, he’s interested in getting to know you, and listens carefully to you. Then, he gradually starts to withdraw, and only shows up when he needs something.
自私的人很清楚,要是言行举止任由自己的性子,他很难交到朋友。所以,他会表现得非常友好热情。一开始,他很愿意了解你、很用心地听你说话。然后,他的热情就会慢慢变淡,只会在需要你时才出现。
He usually brings lots of conversation to the table, and always has something to say. He does that to imply an open minded, interesting, and interested personality, but you can sense that he’s not really interested in any of those subjects; he just uses them as a cover for an empty take-everything-I-can personality. It’s like a black hole—you can’t expect to get love from a person who can only take.
这种人通常谈资甚广,任何话题都能插上两句。他这么做是为了表现得性格开放风趣,但你却能感觉到他其实并不是真的喜欢谈话话题,反倒显得是对他那“假大空”性格的欲盖弥彰罢了。这就像一个“黑洞”——只进不出,你不可能从这种人身上得到任何真心回馈的。
