More often than not, cruel people feel extremely entitled for one reason or another. Most of them think that the world should just fall at their feet and that they are “owed,” but for what, no one really knows. And what’s worse is that when things don’t pan out in the way they believe it should, it’s everyone else’s fault but theirs. These narcissists have an over-exaggerated sense of self-importance, believing life owes them success, fame, and a high standard of living. They love to talk about themselves, and they will only listen to you if you’re talking about their success. They impose unrealistic demands on others, expecting family and friends to attend to their every whim, but they feel sorry for themselves if things don’t work out the way they wanted. Then, they’ll indulge in more than a little self-pity, being overly melodramatic and seeking attention because they believe they deserve every happiness. They also demonstrate double standards in the way they interact with other people; they can forget their responsibilities and commitments to others, but other people should always keep their commitments to them.
