Regretful soothing words dat you administer to someone else to supposedly make him feel better about a situation, but in reality you merely feel sorry for YOURSELF.
A classic "selfish sympathy" example, from an old "Peanuts" comic:
Schroeder, in exasperation at Lucy's pushy "over-attentiveness": Do you know what Beethoven never had?!
Lucy: What?
Schroeder, rantingly waving his arms above his head: Beethoven never had girls hanging on to his piano and bugging him about giving them presents!
Lucy, mildly shocked: He DIDN'T?! (pauses to ponder this fact) Poor Beethoven!

A person who self-isolates from the COVID-19 pandemic only until it interferes with their social life.
Randy will only self-isolate from COVID-19 until it interferes with hooking up on Tinder or playing frisbee in the park. Dude is a total selfish-isolator.

A person who self-isolates during the Covid-19 pandemic only until it interferes with their own social life.
He only self-isolates from Covid-19 until there’s a non-essential reason to leave his house, like a party or chance to hookup on Tinder. He’s a total selfish-isolator.
