Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.
Of course no one can comment on your specific family but usually this,"they don't care to be interested in me as a person" is due to a mutual lack of interpersonal involvement.In short,the Christian foundational teaching to "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you" works almost magically because humans function very much as mirrors;we receive back what people see in us.
OH NOW I UNDERSTAND WHY THE UNITED STATES KEEPS GETTING INTO WARS! WE PROJECT HOSTILITY, ARROGANCE AND DOMINATION .
I can relate. I am sorry you are feeling this way. I totally "get it" and I do understand.
I ask them about their lives, schooling, how their day was etc... They don't reciprocate.
The US also projects foreign aid in the form of cash and food like crazy. I don't see any of that headed back our way.
Don't take this personally but I think your compass is off on this one. I understand the idea of 'what you put out comes back' is popular group think these days but pragmatically speaking its nonsense.

...I thought it was 'do unto others' because it was GOOD, not because you get good KARMA. Am I in the wrong religion or something?
THe statement about the US, was that part of his signature or a statement within his post? What a bunch of horse hockey garbage nonsense. That really ticks me off more than anything else. The United States is more benevolent than any other country in the world, sometimes to our own detriment. We pour billions of dollars into other countries and all we do is get slapped in the face for it. We also have always produced many goods for us as well as for the rest of the world, so our contribution is endless. In addition, our country was the only country ever founded in the history of the world specifically so that people could have the freedom to worship God, and we are indeed a God-blessed nation. If anyone thinks America is so horrible, I urge you to please go live elsewhere.
