I fully understand this loveless family concept because, in many ways, I was raised this way. Emotional attachment was discouraged. Especially any type of hugging by any.

Sort of overcame it though after I went into the military and started to live fully on my own. Lot's and lots of roommates. More than I care to say.

Just to have that many roommates you simply have to care about them. Two separate roommates I even lived with twice.

Each one, with the exception of one, I still care about. Though I never have heard back from any one.

That one exception is actually a criminal for real, without any kind of doubt by anyone. Even biker gangs consider that person a criminal.
