After experiencing a trust collapse, people really become indifferent. There is a concept in psychology called the Baibo Law, which refers to the idea that after experiencing a strong stimulus, a person becomes less concerned when encountering similar situations. When I needed love the most, I was never truly loved deeply, and later, no matter how much love I received, I took it for granted. That feeling is like being in a desert with a shell—without getting a single drop of water. Later, even if someone offers you an entire ocean, you just see it as scenery. People are like that; after experiencing great disappointment, they unconsciously become cold. Even indifferent, which is a self-protection mechanism, afraid of getting hurt again. But being unloved may just be a coincidence of fate, and because of the fear of getting hurt, closing the door to love with your own hands, losing the ability to love, is the longest punishment for oneself. As Camus said, not being loved is a matter of luck; the real disaster is being powerless to love oneself. I know it’s hard to reopen the heart, but perhaps we can start today by trying to trust a small thing, nurture a tiny wish. The ability to love is our ultimate tenderness towards ourselves, and it also allows a single hurt to define your entire life.
