Yes, a possessive person can often be selfish, controlling and disrespectful. A possessive person is often insecure, lacking a love and acceptance of self and is, therefore, not quite able to love freely. That is, once an insecure person who doesn't love himself finds a partner, he (or she) transfers his insecurities over onto the relationship, not quite trusting his partner to satisfactorily love and accept him. And in his satisfaction, he becomes possessive, selfish with the partner's time and attention, often manipulating and controlling the partner and the situations to meet his own needs. And all of that shows a lack of respect to both his partner and himself.

What do you do if you get caled selfish but you aren't?

You're almost certainly not being called selfish because people like the sound of the word. One thing you might consider doing is reflecting on your own behavior to see how it might appear to be selfish, and then changing that behavior. This is assuming that it bothers you. If you don't care whether people call you selfish or not, then just go ahead and continue on as you were.
