gecentered

Gecentered is a term that emerged from online discussions, particularly within certain subcultures, to describe a hypothetical or actual state of being exceptionally focused or engrossed in one's own thoughts, perspectives, or interests to the exclusion of others. It implies a self-centeredness that is not necessarily malicious but rather a deep immersion in one's internal world. This can manifest as a difficulty in understanding or empathizing with different viewpoints, or a tendency to interpret situations primarily through the lens of personal experience and values.

The term is often used in a critical or observational manner, suggesting a lack of awareness or consideration for external realities or the feelings of others. It can be applied to individuals who consistently prioritize their own needs and desires, or to situations where a group or individual seems to be operating in an echo chamber, reinforcing their own beliefs without engaging with dissenting opinions. While not a formal psychological term, "gecentered" captures a common observation of human behavior in various social contexts. Its usage is primarily informal and found in online forums and casual conversations.
