    The meme is talking about consideration as well, not just physical gifts, but ok.

    I think the message is more about thinking of the other people in your life that care about you.

        You don’t like people caring about you?

        I’m so confused about your reaction to a meme that is simply encouraging the “golden rule” - treat others how you want to be treated lol

          I don’t like to outward expression if that sentiment

          My only area comment about the meme was just know the person your having those feeling for well, the rest was you asking me questions.

            because you really can piss someone off with this mentality

            This is really strong language and it made me curious, that’s all.

              Hey, just popping in to say that your curiosity was understandable and I’m sorry you were met with such… closed off responses. You seem like a sweet person, and I hope you have a nice evening :)

                  That person seems like a very curious type of miserable. I am pretty miserable myself most of the time, but I just cannot grasp avoiding basic human contact.

                    Don’t take this the wrong way, but that’s a lack of imagination on your part.

                    There’s plenty of reasons and situations and types of people for whom avoiding basic human contact at some point in the timeline of their lives, was both necessary and correct for them.

                    Not to mention the most glaringly obvious one; pain avoidance. The instinct to avoid the thing that causes us pain is as human as a light conversation ending in laughter, and both are equally valid things which may occur at the apocalypse itself.
