It could be a combination of both selfishness and insecurities. Some ppl are just too cold and so surrounded with the fake-ness of this world that they are not even bothered about the actual issues. The sad part is that they dont even ever realize wht huge losers they are.

**I think we're all selfish to some extent. But, yes, some people are self-centered to the point that they lack empathy for others.
** they cant be happy or sad with anyone...and they either dnt have any feelings or they dnt express it at all...
Could be due antisocial disorder, childhood trauma, or poor upbringing.

**
Maybe they had close relations...such as parents who surrendered to their every wish and didn't set boundaries or consequences. And as a result they grew up to be very selfish with lack of empathy.**

It could also be insecurity in the sense that the person feels unstable if they don't have "everything". Maybe they feel insecure when they are not in control of a situation. And in the quest to gain "everything"...or to be "in control".....they trample over others or go about it in unethical ways.

^Could be a false front of strength where the individual is riddled with insecurities. Could even be the case that the person is truly arrogant and feels that they are entitled to getting their way at the expense of others....and thus may not see how they're hurting people. Could be a psychological/antisocial disorder....where the individual may not be aware of how they're coming across.
****If you've had several negative experiences with someone, then be on your guard: Maintain a distance, don't give too much of yourself to the person, don't invest too much emotional energy on someone who lacks empathy for you, and keep your expectations of that person low. While you can't change or control that person, you can control yourself and try not to let their behavior take a toll on your w ell-being.
we are all selfish upto some extent. Sometimes people are afraid of being 'soft' because they are afraid of being hurt. I don't necessarily find the people who turn this way to be 'selfish'. I find those people selfish who caused people to be this cold.
