Not necessarily no, im self confident in myself as a person and who i am inside and how i carry myself but not in a conceited way. I just am at peace with me.

@Primnproper With you, you're sharing a positive feeling with yourself, maybe sometime it exceed...but others people outside interpret sometime this as ego...

@Hougal I'm a very down to earth person and im only responsible for what i put out there not how others perceive it.

And the other way around.

Ego or selfishness can be a form of confidence as well.

Donald Trump sure does say his lies with confidence. 😈

The problem comes if empathy never learned as a child.

Confounding question, requires a Profound reply.

Confidence is when one confides. If one confides to one's self, then that's self-confidence. Ego or Selfishness is arrogance or childishness, that puts confidence in the back seat.
