DH is very giving (although my selfish ways have slightly rubbed off on him throughout the years, oops) Definitely gotta work on this over the next 8 months or so! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-is-more-selfish-you-or-your-so#post-475581 Wed, 02 Jan 2013 14:12:38 +0000 autumnlove 475581@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think we are pretty even! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-is-more-selfish-you-or-your-so#post-475558 Wed, 02 Jan 2013 14:07:34 +0000 chopsuey 475558@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We're both selfish, but I think about the kids more .. I think it's a maternal thing. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-is-more-selfish-you-or-your-so#post-475548 Wed, 02 Jan 2013 14:05:32 +0000 rachiecakes 475548@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think we're pretty even. DH is more selfish with his schedule - he plans a lot of evening activities for himself, classes, shows he wants to go to, sporting events. And I usually work around it.<br /> I'm more selfish when it comes to shopping, appearance, etc. I shop for myself a lot. Even when I go on Target runs I'll totally forget what DH requested because I'm too involved getting things for myself that I don't need - oops! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-is-more-selfish-you-or-your-so#post-475538 Wed, 02 Jan 2013 14:02:05 +0000 mrs. bird 475538@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Me, by far! DH is the most generous resin I've ever met, he takes amazing care of me. I wish I could be as selfless as he is. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-is-more-selfish-you-or-your-so#post-475503 Wed, 02 Jan 2013 13:50:25 +0000 Bao 475503@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think we are pretty even in that aspect. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-is-more-selfish-you-or-your-so#post-475498 Wed, 02 Jan 2013 13:48:49 +0000 .twist. 475498@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Me, definitely. My husband is pretty amazing at thinking of others and I definitely feel bad about it sometimes! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-is-more-selfish-you-or-your-so#post-475494 Wed, 02 Jan 2013 13:48:00 +0000 mrs. wagon 475494@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Absolutely 100% me. Wagon Sr. always asks what two things I'm choosing between and then orders the one I don't choose. We almost always end up switching plates. Although one of the two things (or both) usually include something Wagon Jr. will eat (or we want him to try). So I guess we are a circle of selflessness. </p> <p>In general though, Wagon Sr. is extremely selfless to a fault. He gets stressed out worrying about other people and then he suffers, which makes all of us suffer. I'm a lot less selfish now that I'm a mom, since it comes naturally to me to be selfless for my kids (and honestly I don't even care anymore what I eat, wear, or do). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-is-more-selfish-you-or-your-so#post-475492 Wed, 02 Jan 2013 13:47:18 +0000 Anagram 475492@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>me! For sure. I mean, I don't feel overly selfish, but DH can be totally selfless at times, so then my normal selfishishness seems even worse. =) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-is-more-selfish-you-or-your-so#post-475483 Wed, 02 Jan 2013 13:43:35 +0000 lawbee11 475483@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Me!! And I am not even that selfish, but DH is so selfless that sometimes I feel like a total biatch. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-is-more-selfish-you-or-your-so#post-475475 Wed, 02 Jan 2013 13:39:59 +0000 mrbee 475475@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Whenever we order a meal, I'm reminded that I am often more selfish than Mrs. Bee. I'll order what I want, whereas she will always order food that she thinks the kids will eat. That rarely occurs to me! That said, I've gotten a lot better at adjusting my order based on Mrs. Bee's positive example.</p> <p>I have areas where I'm not selfish though, like if I'm up early then I'll sometimes watch both kids - or if it's cold out, I'll give her my jacket. Overall though, I think that I'm probably more selfish in ways. Or you could just say that I am good at "on my own oxygen mask first before assisting the person next to me." :)</p> <p>Who is more selfish: you or your SO? </p>
