How do you know if you're entitled?

Entitlement is your ego telling you that you deserve things simply for the fact that you are you. This is a fallacy as you'll see if you spend enough time here. You deserve things by what value you give to get those things. Men act, women appear, a man's value will be judged from his actions, and a woman's from her appearance. Everybody doesn't get a trophy when you play Life, you have to earn that shit.

"I'm pretty. Men should buy me shit." [No, you're being delusional.]

"I spend x hours at the gym and I'm jacked because of it. Women should fall in love with me." [No, you're being delusional.]

"I didn't wake up on time because I forgot to set the alarm and missed the exam. I should still be allowed to take that exam." [No, grow the fuck up.]

"I have a pussy. I should get half and more of your money when we get divorced." [No, but the courts agree with you so I'm really fucked.]

"I've done so many things for her. I was there for her all those times when her boyfriend was being an asshole. She should give me sex." [No, you're being THAT guy. Man the fuck up and learn game.]

"I have a pussy. What you said was offensive. You should apologize." [No. Fuck you.]

"I have a nice car, nice clothes, a nice apartment. I have money. Women should want to have sex with me." [No, that's beta thinking. Man up and learn game.]

"I have a great personality. People should like me." [No, not everyone will like you for who you are.]

"I gave you something. You should thank me." [No, you never give anything to get gratitude. You give because you want to give. If people thank you for it, even better, but it's not why you give.]

The above are all examples of entitlement / feeling like you "deserve" something. No, you don't deserve anything, even if you worked hard for it. You do what you can to get what you want. Logically you should get what you want if you work your ass off for it (most of the time this happens), but sometimes you don't get it and that's life.

Entitlement means you feel like you deserve to have things handed to you without having to work for them. Nothing in life is a given.

Entitled has a spot in the dictionary. Despite the obvious incorrect replies here, you should learn how to use the damn dictionary.

How do you know if you're entitled?

You gotta tell people?

It means you think the world, and the people in it, owe you something. It's infecting Western culture to such a degree that people like you don't even realize what it means.

It means: I have a degree, I deserve a good job waiting for me when I graduate,without doing the work to sell myself and pound the pavement. I means: I've bought her flowers and wrote her a poem, I deserve my dick sucked. It means: I left work on time, I deserve to not have this guy in front of me riding his brake. It means: I'm a woman, I deserve extra privileges like half of the money my husband worked for while I was at home sucking Chad off, not to get a ticket when pulled over, and discounts on coffee. It means: I participated, and did not win, but I deserve a trophy. It means: I was born, therefore give me shit. It means: I am a person, and the world revolves around me.

Take for example the amount of people now on public assistance. No longer is America the country with people who pull themselves up by their bootstraps, bust their ass working overtime or two shit jobs, now it's "I deserve food, shelter, and healthcare because I exist, and it's the government's job to give it to me!" You don't deserve shit. If you want something, go work for it motherfucker. Not a single person on this earth owes you anything outside of your parents for a short period of time. That's it. You want food, a home, and healthcare? You want birth control? You want a cellphone? GO BUY IT YOURSELF, with money you worked for, and stop making the average taxpayer pick up your bill.

You see the same thing a lot in society, especially with BP guys. They think they deserve sex because they're nice or have put in their time. Indian guys do this a lot where they will bitch and moan because blonde haired white girls won't fuck them. Those women don't owe you fucking shit! You don't deserve sex at all, you don't deserve anything. If you want something, go work for it, it's that simple. Stop feeling sorry for yourself and go make it happen! If a woman wants to fuck you, she will, if not, too fucking bad! You're not good enough, go improve yourself until you are. Those women don't owe you anything, and stop pedastalizing them, they're not special snowflakes.

Entitlement is an infectious disease that kills the human spirit and turns men into shriveling neck beards who kill themselves, or go postal in a movie theater/grocery store/gym/etc, and kill others because they don't get the things in life they want. Boo fucking whoo you pussy.

Not a single human being on this earth owes you anything, and especially not if you live in America, a country built on sweat, dreams, and bucking the status quo. You want something, go work for it motherfuckers, and stop expecting shit to fall into your lap like fucking fairy dust.
