So, you think that people are mostly selfish and that it's not only me, but others are also put on the second or last place? Maybe that is all a myth? We learn about relationships and friendships from television shows and movies but how realistic is that? So many people are disappointed in friends and family because we are learning from idealistic and utopia-like society made by Hollywood and the rest. It could be. I understand what each of you is saying, it makes sense...
To add, I am not clingy or needy, people actually sometimes resent me because I appear distant and cold. It is because I am shy and insecure but I don't look that way, quite the opposite. So they take it personally. Usually people think I am really conceited. It's not so much attention I need, not even time, it's the feeling that someone would like to see me or call me just to talk. Or to go with me on coffee just for company. Not because we accidentally met, or not as second, third choice, not when I ask to search through calendar of prior engagements like he is most wanted businessman in the world.... I don't want always to have to fit into someone else's empty (free) couple of hours, why can't they also make time for me? Why can't my partner just come when I am sick or sad or depressed or anytime without having to plan it 5 days ahead? It's not like we live far from each other.
