I don't think you are all these you are saying otherwise you would
have not even asked this question!I think you are trying to show others someone you really doesn't look like inside you .Show the people your real good behavior .Also read this it say things about how to be friendly.
*********************************************************
Being friendly is an easy task, no matter who you are. It requires a few minor adjustments, but overall you will feel better and treat people better.
Steps
1. Smile when you see people you recognize. As you walk through the office, down the hallway, etc., you might notice that it's your natural reaction to look at something else or do something with your hands rather than acknowledge a new acquaintance. Try your best to look in their direction and give them a warm smile to let them know you care.
2. Learn to speak small talk. Avoid those awkward conversations by always being prepared with something to say during a silence. I don't recommend carrying around a reference book, but try to remember things that might spark a conversation with various different people. It's particularly impressive if you remember something about a conversation you've had with them before. Follow up on anything you talked about.
3. Try to talk about positive topics. Nobody likes hearing how awful your life is; always talk about the better parts of even your worst days. It will not only lighten up a conversation, it will help you to truly think about the silver lining in life's little "situations".
4. Have some humor. Even if you don't think a joke is funny, try to laugh! You'll notice you actually laugh more naturally, and it cheers you up. Don't be the sore sport of the bunch; enjoy yourself!
5. Break your worst habits. You might not realize it, but they are affecting your relationships. You will be less honest with people if you're hiding awful habits that you are ashamed of. It will feel like a weight is lifted from your shoulders, as cheesy as it sounds.
Tips
* Never ever be rude.
* Look at yourself in the mirror and think positive thoughts about your appearance...If you like yourself, you'll be more likely to pay attention to others rather than focusing on your insecurities.
* Don't be shy!! Say hello to people you haven't talked to in a while, send an email, a letter, a nice Post-It...Just keep in touch, it will be appreciated.
* Use the "what the heck." approach...If you're not sure a person will remember you, or if you would just like to meet them but don't think they'll feel the same way, just think to yourself "What the heck." What harm can it do to say hello?
Warnings
* There are no warnings when it comes to being friendly!!

To control your anger or when you feel like arguing try taking boxing lessons or punching a pillow. You could right down how you feel to get rid of the need to argue.
Maybe so you stop thinking about yourself you need someone else to think about. Being an only child you are probably use to all the attention but you have to realize the world doesn't revolve around you.
If you become a nicer person and gain friends that might stop you from focusing on yourself.
Try not to argue so much and don't feel bad if you don't have as many friends as you like focus on the ones you have and make sure they stay good =)

You aren't a bad person if you want to change.
If somebody insults you then it is good to stand up for yourself but arguing over "spilled milk" will only make people feel like they can't speak their opinion around you, so just relax and try to understand their point of view.
Being selfish is probably the worst quality in a person-no offense. The more you help other people out the more respect and selflessness you will earn!

Being an only child you never had to learn these skills.
Your parents probably gave you everything you wanted.
What they didn't want to give, you probably nagged for.
So yes, I'd say Only Child Syndrome.
How do you break out of this shell?
It starts by being friendly to others.
How? By thinking about what they need instead.
Try doing some volunteer work in your community.
Yes, you'll meet others like yourself that may take advantage.
That's the chance you'll have to take; but you can understand them.

Firstly do you have religion? Because, being bad and selfish is a sure way to make you even more depressed when you pass away when you end up in HELL.
Mate enjoy your life when you meet people accept them for who they are. If you think your gonna start flaming then warn them or something. Or try taking deep breathes or drinking cold water to calm yourself down.
Hope this helps

I don't think you sound selfish and greedy. There's nothing worse than a 'spineless jellyfish'-type person. If you don't stand up for yourself you will be trampled and no-one will respect you. I'm , of course, assuming you don't deliberately go around picking arguments and causing mayhem. If so-then you probably could look into counselling or toning it down a bit. :-)

i like all the hippies asserting greed is taught. look at a toddler or a toddler, and you will observe all you could desire to approximately user-friendly human nature. while it is composed of survival, while philosophy and self-help books meet chilly fact, human beings will throw one yet another under the bus to stay alive. A drowning individual will kill the lifeguard attempting to shop them, using the different individual as a buoy. A ravenous individual will lie, cheat, and kill to get food from somebody else, until eventually an emotional bond, i.e. determine-toddler or romantic, preempts it. We do have opposing urges, in spite of the fact that. maximum classic human beings have a ingredient of them that desires distinctive function, yet in prepare, it fairly is often a stable thought to choose for the superb in human beings yet prepare for the worst.
