How come nobody "gets" me? I am basically selfless and everyone else wants something.?

Question

I could care less about material possesions. I have no car, no cancer phone, nor any need for a credit card.

Answer 1

What's to get? Things are just things.  Real connections happen between people, not cords or  plugs.  Why are you so hung up on it?  Expand your question..

Answer 2

if you're selfless, you should not care what others think of you.  

Answer 3

Maybe people do get you...and they just don't like you because you make judgmental comments and consider yourself superior to those of us who do care about these things.

Answer 4

Maybe nobody gets you because you don't give YOU.  You give a list of your does and don'ts and your platform on everything.  It may come across a little "Conspiracy Theory-ish".  Or maybe I need a little more info from you to better answer.  

Answer 5

If you are so carefree about material possessions, then I suggest you be carefree about what others think about you. Everyone is entitled to their own values in this world... like getting the next touch screen cancer causing phone and the next red sports car.
