Why is the well-being of one based upon the well-being of someone else? Empathy is fucking retarded.
Others are happy when I am happy. If I'm not happy, others aren't happy. I feel like I am required to act like everything's ok so others can feel good.
I'd rather want all people to hate me, insult me and ignore me so I can give a shit about their well-being aswell. But when I try to act like a douche and have a "I don't give a shit about you"-attitude towards them, they don't respond in the same manner.
