At what age did you learn that nobody really cares about you, and everyone is only out for themselves in life?

Answer 1

The day I was born.

Answer 2

At about age 28

Answer 3

25

Answer 4

My family does care and love me. But at the age of 7 I learned that grown ups were only out for their own satisfaction in a very rude way. But ya live and learn and grow to protect yourself.

Answer 5

I'm 58 years old and I think back to the good ole days? My butt! Even back in the 50's and 60's it was all about "ME"..."Me"..."ME".
You think the flower children in the 60's weren't just a bunch of spoiled rotten kids? They were...they wanted more. They wanted what their parents had without having to work for it....so , they drank and smoked their 'wacky-weed' and revolted. Revolt for them was just an excuse to party! I learned early that everyone is more concerned about themselves than me. So, I set out to be more concerned about others and that is where I am today. I can't give you an exact age cause it was too long ago....lol

Answer 6

You are hanging around the wrong people. I am 46 now, and I don't believe that. Sometimes it may seem nobody cares with the world leaning more toward materialism than ever. Develop a belief in God, God cares. Stay away from me me me people. Learn to pray!!!

Answer 7

Well, this is indeed a difficult situation but you should understand one thing in life that not everyone in this world can liked by everyone around you. There are people whoikes you and some who just cant seem to like being with you. As for me, i know my parents are always there for me, for some they have colleagues and friends and relatives. So dont ever think that no one cares for you. Maybe you have yet to realize.

Answer 8

I have felt that way at certain points in my life, during my childhood and again throughout my teenage years...

It's easy to feel that way. It's easy to follow that line of thought to thoughts of depression and suicide.

But it's a lie... I'm not calling you a liar, but I'm saying that you've been lied to. There are people who can and will genuinely love you if they get to know you, although it might not seem like it when they aren't around, or during the moments when they turn their backs on you.

And though it may be something of a cliche at this point, God loves you.

I realize this answer is incredibly inadequate, but it's what I have to offer.

God bless.

Answer 9

When I was younger I felt like that ALL the time. Especially in my teen years. Sometimes I still feel like that. I am now married for 24 years with 5 kids ( 2still live at home) and 6 adorable grandchilren. I still feel like that once in a "blue moon", but its not really true. It's your hormones talking. Theres always somebody to care about you.

Answer 10

mmm I have struggled with that kind of stinkin thinkin pretty much all my life...then I learned that guess what??? It's not all about me!
Yes most people in this world are about number one...these people too haven't realised that it's not all about them!!Forgive them.
I have found that when I start thinkin like that, the God of my understanding always reminds me of people who do care about me. I then remember those who have been there for me when really bad thing happened.
I also have been told that people have thier own lives and they are busy with what they are doing...it doesn't mean they don't care.
Just note that there are careing people in this world, those are the people you want to surround yourself with.
Trust until one gives you a reason not to!

Answer 11

I started out bleieving that actually until I was about 12. Then I stopped believeing that while I was involved with the woman that became my first wife. After she died, and then the following year my great-great-great aunt died started believing that and havent ahd any reason to change tha idea since. I was19 when my aunt died and will be 40 in a couple of months. You do the math.
