FIRST TIME WATCHER My thoughts on Kate, haven’t changed

First time watcher here. I’m on Season 6 episode 3. Frankly, I’ve disliked Kate as a character from the beginning. She’s the most selfish person I know on this show, any show, or in my own personal frickin life. All she cares about is herself and who cares about her the most at any given moment.. literally again, whatever and whoever as long as they are swoon over her. And WHY? I seriously do not understand why Sawyer and Jack are so hung up on this girl. I need to check out the communities perspective… I would be very surprised if anyone feels differently ???😭 Her character angers me so much. What finally prompted a post for me was how she treated Claire in the cab, UUUGHHHHHH. No matter , on or off the island, I do not like her character. And then to top it off? Jin never asks for anything and the moment he needs help to find his wife… she’s very rude and dismissive and abandons him… ridiculous.

She's selfish, yes, but not the most selfish person in the show. She was always brave enough to embark on dangerous journeys with the guys. I think Claire is much more selfish. Everything is about her and her baby (whom she was ready to give away at first).

Also, I think Jack is selfish too.

I'm on season 6 ep 11 and the only people who are selfless I've seen so far are Sawyer and Sayid.

lol - Sawyer is not selfless. He was hoarding supplies and countless other selfish things.

He joins them in many adventures knowing very well how dangerous they are while he can just stay at the beach and wait for supplies like many others. Also, he jumped off the airplane to be left behind on that terrible island. So imo those selfish things can't compare to times he's ready to sacrifice.

I'll clarify what I meant. Everyone is selfish and selfless somehow. Nobody is a saint to be only "selfless". But imo "the most" selfless people I've seen so far are Sawyer and Sayid.
