"Lacking in generosity" refers to the quality or behavior of an individual or entity that demonstrates a scarcity or absence of benevolence, kindness, or willingness to give or share resources, favors, or assistance with others. It characterizes a deficiency in the inclination to be open-handed, considerate, or magnanimous in interpersonal relationships or in dealing with others' needs or demands.
Individuals who are lacking in generosity often exhibit a self-centered or self-serving attitude, prioritizing their own interests or gains over those of others. They may display traits such as stinginess, selfishness, or an unwillingness to contribute their time, money, or resources for the betterment or support of others.
In contrast to someone who is known for their generosity, individuals lacking in this trait are often perceived as tight-fisted, unwilling to share their wealth, time, or knowledge. They may withhold help or support even when it could be easily provided, showing little empathy or consideration for the well-being of others.
Lacking in generosity can manifest in various contexts, including personal relationships, workplaces, or in the wider community. It is often considered as an undesirable quality or behavior, as it hampers the establishment and maintenance of strong social bonds and can create an atmosphere of mistrust or resentment.
