Answer 3

DEFanatly true.. we live in a very selfish society and its every man for himself

Answer 4

Too true. I've felt that way a long time. Especially when I don't know the person and they feel that they can take me as a confidant... I don't care! I wouldn't expect them to care about my own problems. Of course, thoughts and reactions are very different. "Oh really? That sounds terrible. I'm so sorry." Nope, couldn't care less. It may seem unfeeling, but what can you do? People need to learn that not everybody cares about what's going on their own little orbital sphere.

Answer 5

I think that its true that most of the time, people thrive on other people's problem stories because it puts their own lives in perspective.  But I don't think this quote is true in every case . . .sometimes I genuinely care about someone and im not glad that they have to deal with a problem!

Answer 6

well this quote is absolutely right.... nvr tell ur probs to any1... coz all wat ppl cn do is add more probs to the existing ones... lol... today every1 is busy in their lives n no 1 has tht much tym to listen our probs n giv us their solutions... evn if they listen, they make fun of it n pass it to oder ppl also... n this further increases our problems,,... only our parents care abt us, bt we ppl nvr tell our probs to them... itz good to keep our probs wid ourselves... coz we know ourselves better than any1...
