Why do you care about/love other people?

1 Name: egoist-kun 2025-05-09 13:23
I have tried and tried to come up with reasons to care about other people but I can't think of any. I just can't think of justifications to sacrifice myself for the sake of others. Nor do I see any reason to fall in love. Nor do I have any friends outside the context of doing certain hobbies together. Outside of the context that we meet I don't expect any favours from them, and neither do they. Frankly I don't care about their personal life.

I am aware that my opinion is strange so I don't voice these thoughts of mine in public which is why I am turning to an anonymous forum. It's just that there's so many works of art about love and self-less heroism but can it all be just propaganda? I was wondering if maybe I am missing something.

i love eating tacos. yes i could raise cattle grow maize, cut a molcajete from rock, grind the maize, make tortilla, and make my own taco. but it's great to be able to push a button and get it delivered without putting on my shoes.
therefore i love the delivery driver, i love the mexican lady who made the taco, the suppliers who create and bring her masa, the dudes who built the roads, the guy who comes and takes away my garbage, the peeps who engineered my phone, the nyaas who maintain the network infrastructure, etc etc etc.

individual love between two people does seem to be more a negation of the fear of loneliness and boredom to me. it's nice to have someone to share things with who is interested in things you are interested. someone who shares a continuity of experience with you, because the alternative is isolation.

i have experienced what youd call love only once in my life (excluding the feelings towards family members). to be honest i cannot explain to you the reason i love them, sometimes it would be easier if i didnt, but its something so primitive you can only think of it as some form of magic, i want to see the other person succeed, i want to praise them, i want them to feel good with themselves, whenever people insult them i get mad and i cant help it. life is way too easy if you dont have liabilities

When you meet someone you click or jive with it turns hanging out into a fun experience. Do you have fun doing your hobbies? Same thing. Only you have to meet the right people. Alternatively, you are a type of person who will not be able to enjoy social interaction regardless of who it is but that usually means you have autism or something similar. But then this whole question isn't a thing begin with.

Regarding romantic love I am convinced it's a less nuanced game where your brain tries to get you to copulate by any means necessary. Sorry to everyone who thought their fantastical stories created by this very mechanism were real.

the idea that “your brain just tells you to copulate” is pretty dumb because it strips reality of the basic concept at hand. Your mind would never want to have sex if it didn’t feel good, nature has hidden reproduction behind the need to feel good, if you can both feel good and make tons of babies with tons of partners why has society made it ok to be with only one? it’s unnatural. it could be that we hate nature to the point we actively work towards doing things the retarded way or the need to love is something that existed before nature, a need for a binary system that only extremely evolved organisms could get. i choose to believe the later

i have crippling cocklust that hasnt been released since i was born this shit sucks ass specially when you get the luck of being born the wrong gender and as you grow older and see the vitality leave your body day by day you wish that the day would come at a party or in public or at a bar that someone just takes intrest in your fucked up personality that was created from a bad upbringing but whatever all that comes your way are fucks with savior complexes or sensitive brutes that want to cuddle with you one second and the other they furl their brow and want to punch you over the slightest disagreement should i just become a whore and sell my body so that i may finally feel the sexual embrace that i so desire or should i wait for possibly years to go by and when the time comes I cant even show my best self to my partner just a tired old husk I abhore people if its not a platonic relationship or a loving friendship but intimate relationships seem so far our of my grasp that sometimes
I wonder if i should even try why not just cut off everyone and live a comfortable silent life instead of yearning for some stupid fuck to come and ruin your life just cause you feel a strong desire to be sexually embraced one day and make the worst friend cause you see no other options

you are spiritually dead because you're a freak. once you find your tribe and purpose then you begin to love again. the current world rapes us daily and forces us down the path of satanry, but it is still possible to resist and even thrive if you are strong enough.

>>12 not going to fall into tribal traps cause they inevitably lead to an us vs them mentality. in reality its more close to a me vs everyone life. its still me vs my partner, its just that we have agreed to turn friendly fire off

If this is the person who was talking about cocklust why are you bitching about feeling alone when you have a partner
