An old post of mine was titled “closer” it was about HomeBase and it was a long long rant saying i love them, that I eventually privated because Mr Boyfriend got upset about it
Something that some did today reminded me of something I said in it though so here’s a little excerpt from said post:
“ When they ask me what's wrong, I say "nothing" until they ask me again, or drop it. That's how I decide who cares and who doesn't. Someone who accepts "nothing" when it's obviously something, is only asking to be nice. Someone who decides "nothing" isn't good enough, actually wants to know.
These are unconventional ways obviously, and it's not healthy for me to base whether or not somebody cares about on whether or not they believe me, but it is useful. Using this method you'll discover that many less people care than you'd think. Your parents don't REALLY care, your partner(s) don't care, and most of your friends don't. And most surprisingly your BEST friend doesn't. I'm no abolitionist, obviously they care about you, they love you, and they want you to be okay. They just don't care enough to try and fix things for you. Which is okay. It is not their job to fix your problems, its yours. I'm not trying to say that anyone should push past the first "nothing", but rather its important to take note of those who do. “
