How do I nicely but clearly tell someone that they are incredibly self centered. A complete idiot. They are 9 times out 10 the problem in any given issue. And that they are not the saint they think they are. They desperately need help or self reflection.

Honesty without kindness is cruelty and kindness without honesty is manipulation

I’ve had this exact thing and while she deflected some, it worked a little. You should tell her how her selfishness has manifested and made you feel. Say you’ve noticed a pattern and ask her to be aware of it. And emphasize that you say this bc you do care about her and don’t want to feel this way around her

She keeps losing friends and doesn’t understand why. I feel like someone needs to be direct with her, but I don’t want to like, make her depressed or something.

And tbh, if I was such a universally hated person in my community, I would want to be told and told why

Don’t be afraid to let her know, just be direct. She may get upset at first that you are actually setting the boundary with her, but in the long run she’ll either grow to respect you or cut you off. Either way it proves who she really is, not who you are
