the most frustrating thing in the world is having to realize that like. you can’t make someone care about you. you can’t make someone think about you, you can’t make someone be inspired by you, you can’t teach them how to care or have manners. because you want to be of value to someone but if they’re so rooted in their comfort zone and you are not the person that floors them into rethinking their entire life, then that’s just the way the cookie crumbles and it sucks. especially when you’ve consistently and persistently given effort into their own comfort while never receiving any in return and never even being asked about your own feelings. because you can’t ! make ! someone put effort into you ! you can’t make someone ask the right questions if they’re so wrapped up in their own head that all they can do is say ‘that sucks’ and then not do a god damn thing to help and then proceed to be a martyr ab the whole fucking thing.
