I never get the meaning of selfless. Dictionary meaning implies you think more on other people’s interest than your own. But is that even possible for a person to be living his whole life selfless.
To decide not to follow your interest and apply some one else does mean that the person is bound to you and you are doing for them because you want them to do like that. How do you term that as selfless and is it not selfish for you to wish something they want , to be given by you.
A person always does or takes some decision for himself at first and then thinks of the effects of it. In these terms we cannot be selfless at all. Being selfless means you do not have your own identity and you want to build some one else identity just for no reason !!!
I do see a meaning for being selfless to a person you love the most , because you want them to happy . But its not okey if the other person has reverse wish and does not even care or respect on your selfless personality.
I love being selfish at some point where I can be at my decisions and be happy at my decisions . But at same time some times I feel , may be being selfless might be the ideal characteristics to get rid of all attachments , emotions , goals. Just getting happy for your deeds to others.
May be some day I find an answer to it or may be i do not but I will still not be okey with a person who just be selfless for no reason and do not have a self opinion on anything except others life.
