“It’s your fault I’m this way”
If the egotistical person appears emotionally withholding, they will likely blame everyone else for that dynamic. They will say that others have let them down, or not proven worthy of emotional intimacy. As Holcomb puts it, “People who are ego-driven tend to value quantity of material ‘conquests’ over emotional quality, because they can then attribute lack of depth to shortcomings of other people instead of labeling it self-sabotage and evasion. They may have become accustomed to a mindset of prevention or survival mode. Many may not be aware of these patterns which is where the guidance of a trained helping professional can be instrumental in enhancing awareness and consciousness.”
