    Font - 1. They are more likely to be a psychopath Taking selfies has been linked to mental disorders and even psychopathy. A study by Ohio State University found that this is because one of the psychopathy symptoms is being impulsive. So when a person loves taking quick pictures of themself and immediately posting them to social media, they are being impulsive - just like a psychopath! This is even more troubling if he's doing it all the time.

    Font - 2. They could be a narcissist The same study found that when people spend time editing their selfies, this is linked to narcissism. Think of how much time it takes to edit pictures and choose the right filters for them. Narcissistic people are desperate for love, which could be why they are striving to post the perfect selfies, to begin with. But sadly, narcissists are often incapable of giving love in return.

    Font - 3. They are more likely to be selfish If they're always concentrating on themselves, this could also lead to general selfishness in the relationship. They'll be more likely to want to talk about themselves and their problems rather than listen to you when you need it.

    Font - 4. They are likely insecure The selfie king/queen needs the approval of others and "likes" in order to feel worthy. If they don't get them, they'll feel depressed and worry that they're not gorgeous or interesting enough. Sounds exhausting.

    Font - 5. They don't live in the moment Instead of enjoying moments in life as they happen with you by their side, they're going to be trying to get a selfie out of every single experience. Again, exhausting.

    Font - 6. They are probably desperate for attention There's nothing more off-putting than someone who has an insatiable thirst for attention. The selfie addict is all about trying to make people look their way. They're probably also like that in real life, trying too hard to be the life of the party or taking hours to get dressed so that they can be the hottest person in the room. It's like a child screaming at people to notice.

    Font - 7. They are more likely to have a wandering eye Being in a relationship with a selfie king/queen can make you wonder if they're likely to cheat. Why are they caught up in the need to impress people online? Are they hoping to attract other people? Quite suspect, indeed.

    Font - 8. They place too much importance on appearance Selfie-obsessed people place a lot of value on looks, which can be seen in all their annoying AF selfies. The focus on the superficial will make it hard to develop a real relationship because they are probably too busy obsessing over their pics/likes.
