90 People Living Their Best Main Character Lives While Everyone Around Them Pays The Price For It

Wait 5 sec.

We all have that one friend who believes they’re the center of everyone else’s universe. They expect you to drop everything and travel to their destination wedding, or stop enjoying your weekend to attend their fancy birthday party. Or they forget everything you ever tell them… Well, you get the idea.The point is, we all have that one friend who maybe shouldn’t be a friend anymore. Or perhaps we see them at the gym, at work, or in a random park, and the perfect way to describe them is as someone with main character syndrome. So, we’ve rounded up a number of people who caught random entitled folks doing unbelievable things and decided to share their experiences online. Here they are.#1 Starring: Yearbook's Photo Editor© Photo: brando_writes#2 This Is Probably The Worst Profile I've Ever Seen© Photo: CaroleKann#3 Entitled Female Puts Her Foot Between Passenger’s Seat On A Train© Photo: Grouchy_HandbagIt may surprise you, but “Main Character Syndrome” isn’t an actual medical condition. It’s considered a social construct rather than a formal diagnosis recognized by the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5-TR). But it is so commonly used that several psychologists have analyzed this so-called “syndrome” through an analytical and psychological lens.Thomas Gilovich and Kenneth Savitsky coined the term “spotlight effect,” which describes the psychological tendency to overestimate how much other people notice our appearance or actions. Essentially, people experiencing this effect may assume others are actively watching and judging their lives, causing them to overestimate how much attention others pay to their actions.#4 Entitled Bikers Take Over Pedestrian Trail© Photo: Adjective_Noun_42069#5 Nonono They Need A New iPhone Specificly© Photo: No_Watercress2602#6 Wants Pampering, But It Has To Be Before Her Weekend Birthday!

Specialists like Dr. W. Keith Campbell have argued that social media platforms can act as catalysts for more self-centered and egotistical attitudes and behaviors.Campbell says social media algorithms can incentivize people to turn everyday activities and otherwise mundane tasks into an aesthetic narrative, either to pursue monetization or to get an ego boost from comments, likes, and shares. Often, this behavior goes hand in hand with people who treat public spaces like private sets or who struggle to understand that other people's lives are just as real as their own. #8 This Guy Sitting On A $100,000+ Car At An Auction And It Isn't His© Photo: Nick3757#9 Capital Of Estonia After A Visit From Swedish Football Fans© Photo: QuartzXOX#10 Cruising Altitude: Feet© Photo: Additional-Sky8587#11 I Spent $40 On A Perfume From Amazon My Best Friend Asked For Just To Get This Text Before I Go To Sleep© Photo: [deleted]While Main Character Syndrome may share some traits with narcissistic personality disorder (NPD), especially when it comes to self-focus, attention-seeking, and a constant desire for validation, psychologists distinguish between the two, partly because Main Character Syndrome isn’t a clinical disorder.Someone with Main Character Syndrome may be egocentric, but these tendencies are often situational and fluid. NPD, on the other hand, is a persistent personality disorder characterized by patterns that can affect a person across different areas of their life, rather than something that only occasionally becomes evident.#12 Someone Took The Items In My Cart Out Of My Cart And Took My Cart© Photo: darkwingdankest#13 Mc At The Fountains Of Bellagio© Photo: alilpenguin#14 Tactless, Entitled, Or Both?
