Do you believe in the concept that most people don't care about your struggles while the rest are secretly glad you have them? I've heard of that concept many times before, both online and in person. To an extent, yes there are lots of people that genuinely do not give a crap and there will be people that are secretly glad you have them. I've seen both. But I would imagine some people that are very close to you really do care because they wouldn't ask if they didn't. Unless they are asking out of politeness and hope you actually don't confide in them, similar to how two strangers will ask each other how they are but don't actually confide in one another.

I sometimes think the belief that absolutely no one cares whatsoever, and I mean absolutely no one, while many others are secretly gleeful you are struggling, is a bit extreme. Like I said, yes there will be people on both extremes, usually those who are strangers to each other or have a dislike towards one another, and even in some cases, a toxic friendship or relationship, but I'm sure there are some people that genuinely care. Do you think there are some people that genuinely care or do you think absolutely no one cares? I think as long as you're careful at who you confide in, it is okay. Just confide in the right people and I think it will be fine.
