So, I had someone recently tell me that they did not care about me because I do not care about me.

[niyad]

1. Speaking from a purely personal standpoint, I have cared for people who

did not care for themselves because they did not think they were worthy of someone caring about them. In some cases, they believed they were not worthy because that was the message they had gotten their whole lives. Sometimes people need that hand, or shoulder, or whatever. But then, I don't see people in transactional terms, just purely human ones.

I don't know if this answers your question or not.
