In an article, Are You a Selfish Girlfriend?, Jane Greer, author of What About Me? Stop Selfishness from Ruining Your Relationship, answers why she believes selfishness destroys relationships by saying "Everybody thinks that they are right, and they're invested in defending their point and securing their needs, no matter what. So when people enter relationships, the interaction is often positioned as combative and oppositional. This dynamic has become increasingly intense because our culture conditions and reinforces instant gratification over the hard work of getting along. Everyone has become emotionally grabby." Do you think selfishness could be the heart of many failed relationships and marriages?
