My heart can only pretend to be someone who cares about me

The relationship between people is far more fragile than we imagined.

I remember reading a sentence that said:

The relationship between people is far more fragile than we imagined.

Many things come to an end, dust to dust, bridge to bridge, road to road.

I deeply believe that everyone’s world is small, and not everyone can fit into it.

1. Most of the time, I am not that important in the eyes of others, and likewise, I am not that special in other people’s world.

As I grow older, I feel more and more that, compared to being nice to everyone and not wanting to offend anyone,

I should subtract the relationship around me, stay away from people who don’t take me seriously, and stay with people who really care about me

Looking back on my journey, I have also devoted my heart and soul to one person and made a selfless dedication.

I feel sorry for the suffering of the other party and care about the tiredness of the other party, but I completely forget that I also need to care.

In order to maintain a friendship for many years, I have catered in every possible way and even blurred my own personality.

However, I always think about others and give all when needed, but in exchange for the indifference and alienation of others.

I have also been kidnapped by relatives, giving is taken for granted, kindness is taken for granted,

Let people ask for anything from me in the name of family affection.

2. In the beginning, I naively thought that every sincere effort would yield something,

So I can’t bear to be cold-faced to others, and I will devote full enthusiasm to everyone.

It’s a pity that people’s hearts are exchanged.

I gave all my sincerity, but always got the other party’s indifference and intensified harm.

After being repeatedly let down, I understand that in this world, there are not so many heart-to-heart comparisons, and not everyone can see my kindness.

Most of the time, sincerity will only bring you sadness, and attention will only bring you contempt.

In the eyes of those who don’t know how to cherish and be grateful, no amount of sacrifice is futile.

3. If you pay three points, you have to let him see five points, and if you pay five points, you have to let him return ten points.

Only in this way are fairness and justice. If you keep giving behind your back, no one will know how to cherish it.

Indeed, any “pay” needs to be repaid with “worth”.

People who are not worthy of my sacrifice are also not worthy of my wholehearted treatment.

From now on, I only pretend to care about people who care about me

I will give my feelings and time to those who really care about me,

Give my sincerity and enthusiasm to those who deserve it,

Because only they deserve all my good.

Thank you for reading!
