Do you think outside your own square when contemplating the actions of others? Or do you focus more on how other people's actions affect you? And when does thinking of others moreso make you a victim vs not thinking at all making you narcissistic?

I try to keep the balance. I hate automatically jumping to the conclusion that everyone is out to hurt me, and generally my philosophy is that if they don't know they are hurting me and I haven't told them they are, then I can expect them to change and be annoyed by their actions. Even if it seems like common sense to me. Thats because of the life I've lived. And just because I view something a certain way doesn't mean everyone else will.

What do you think?
