I used to be pretty self-centered. I wasn't selfish, just didn't really feel connected to my family or friends. But for the past 2 or 3 years I started to put others' feelings into consideration. For example, I visit my grandparents more often knowing they enjoy my company, although I'd rather play games at home instead. I also gave up an abroad working holiday opportunity so that I could spend more time with my family and friends. No one forced me to make these decisions, but it's like my care for others made me act against my best interest. In other words, I feel hijacked by my emotion and it bothers the original part of me.
Maybe such dilemma is essentially human nature, but this is pretty new to me and I do not know how to cope with it.
