They can be charming, at first, then you're caught in their self absorbed, selfish and shallow web.

There is a difference between making friends and attracting attention. Time usually sorts that out.

But those friendships based on the diffidence of others won't last, people do notice the selfishness after a while.

Do you think? I don't see it, they seem to ignore the selfishness.

I've seen that happen, you know people remember when they've been let down.

Selfish people think they are better/more important then others, they exude a confidence that tells people "I am awesome". People get curious about how that person is so awesome, and they want to be awesome too, so they try and get close to that person. The selfish person sees a less confident person wanting to get close to them, and sees how that friendship would benefit them. They become friends.
