Are you a good person?
| No, I'm not a good person because I'm a coward, I don't do what I think is right in fear of consequences, because I can't be a hero and I won't take action when I should
| No. I do shitty things, I lash out at people who do not deserve it, I rarely act out of pure compassion or altruism. Nothing good about me.
| yeah i'm a good person but people don't think i am
whatever
| Don't ask your question like that. Instead, ask "Do you think that most people are worse than you?"
| I love sex.
| I wouldn't call myself 'good' but I'm generally altruistic and polite. I do a lot of that for my own benefit, though. That being said, If >>7687bb asked the question, then I would say yeah, I'm nicer than most people I know.
| I am, but I could be an even better one if I wasn't so lazy
| (1/2) I'm neither particularly good nor bad. Generally, I am polite and empathetic, and I do these partially for their own sake. But I also am motivated by the future returns I make by investing goodness in someone or something. These returns are often indirect, and don't arise from the affected party. But it has lead to a view of interpersonal interaction that is transactional, with the hope that both parties can walk away happily.
| (2/2) With this in mind, it becomes a lot easier to figure out when it's best to drop innocuous lies, for instance.
But it should be noted that I don't typically go out of my way to do voluntary charity work. My social reservedness is partially to blame for this, but it is also not significant enough to be the only factor.
| i dont believe that anyone can be a good (as in completely good) person, so no
| I'm an asshat most of the time, but I know when to do the right thing
| people i talk to tell me that i am and i think they are right. but i wish i knew how to be selfish and take what i want from society. im incredibly unhappy.
