I think most people wish other people cared. Maybe that's the optimist in me, and no one actually gives a crap. But all we can do is be more caring ourselves, and hope it spreads...
I've been wondering lately if I'm extraordinarily considerate or something. In my home life especially, it seems like my SO does inconsiderate things without realizing it and doesn't understand why I get upset. Maybe I was just brought up to put everyone else before myself.
I'm tired of being a rug, but I do genuinely care about making everyone else happy. I just wish more people were worried about making me happy...most of all, my SO. Selfish, maybe, but I'm just so tired of exerting myself and getting nothing back.
not at all selfish. i'm guessing you're female since this is such a common story with women. we're trained to give, give, give and actually call ourselves SELFISH for caring for ourselves. it's not selfish, it's necessary. the people who don't get it when you want to take care of yourself are the ones who are selfish.
Last night my SO asked if I'd consider working at a strip club if I couldn't find a job. I said no, but I can't get hired anywhere and I don't know what to do. Maybe I'll have to. :(
