How humans are..

Some people can't see beyond their own wants and needs,that's all of us to a degree. Some take this to extremes and can't think of others, for whatever reasons they may have for being that way. Others move beyond this and cultivate empathy and an ability to care for the feelings of others, you could say most of us depending on your perspective. Unfortunately, the former category seem to be the ones that predominantly message me 😂

What about your wants and needs? Does no one ever ask?

@Mindfulness thank you, they do yes I /am/ fortunate in that respect. I just get a lot of messages from folk who just want what they can get from an interaction with me, often sexual. When I'm feeling strong or even vulnerable I try to consider that they are also struggling/suffering with something. When I feel a bit more jaded I remember that, in this life, there are some very selfish individuals who will take advantage of any situation. It's a fact of life.

@Egg01 you sound like a very tolerant giving person. Don't get too jaded, there are some selfish people in all walks of life in all online forums, but there's good people there too.
Don't give up on them.
Hope you're OK. ❤

@Mindfulness thank you and you. I'll never give up on the good folk because I know that really, they are in the majority ❤️😌
