Almost No One Cares About You

[Deleted member 104869]

Statistically speaking, we would have to look at large-scale probability.

- World population: ~8.1 billion
- Suppose you have, generously, 150 “weak ties” (people who know your name, see you occasionally). That’s the upper end of dunbar’s number in practice.
- Out of those, maybe 5–15 people “care” in any real sense (family, a few friends).

So:

15 ÷ 8,100,000,000 = 0.000000185% of humanity even registers you as someone they care about.

In other words, for any given random human, the probability they “care” about you in any meaningful way is essentially zero. The vast majority of humans don’t know you exist. of those who do, the vast majority don’t have emotional investment.

Does that mean no one cares? No. It really just means that, metaphorically and literally, in a cosmic lottery of 8 billion tickets, you might have 10 winners. That’s already massively above zero, and it’s all that actually matters to your lived experience.

If you have even one person who would show up for you at 3 am, you’ve already beaten the base odds by a factor of millions.

even if ur an influencer or something tbh. if they were to die most of em, ppl wld move on and forget after a certain period of time yk. i think its js rare in general for a person to truly value ur character and like u as a person outside family
