He/She will have had much more important and less egotistical things on His/Her mind. Besides, who wants to spend eternity with an egomaniac personality that is so self conscious that they really think, “Love only me, Worship me, etc..”

Maybe I choose to not want to be around anyone like that. Especially not for an eternity. I’ve been burned by that kind before.

Okay, so think of it this way. We're on the Earth, which has a breathable atmosphere, a relatively mild temperature range compared to the rest of the solar system, plenty of water and other life to provide food. Now what if we had the capability to will ourselves into deep space just because we took Earth for granted and didn't particularly feel comfortable enough in its confines. We would die a horrible death if we decided to do so. Would Earth be to blame?

Also, you might want to look up what is considered worship in Christianity. It's not just singing and bowing down. And if you look at instances of worship in the presence of God in the Bible, He never commands people to worship Him.

“He never commands people to worship Him.”
