What is The Essence of Selfishness?

The other day our youth group took a trip to a college, had pizza and watched a basketball game. During the time I felt bored and kinda kept to myself. Like a form of isolation. Which as a outgoing personality, I disliked the trip and immediately, regretted going. 

After I thought about the situation I felt a form of selfishness. Not the way that your thinking. I was selfish in a way that effected others. Everyone else had the total right to have fun and enjoy themselves. And in a way I withheld that from them, from not being involved or not engaging in conversation. I had full control if I wanted to go or not. The form of selflessness was totally based on my thought and actions. 

I hope next time a situation like this happens again, I will take advantage of the situation, be in the presence and make it a blast.
