I love Brits like Chris!🇬🇧 At 67 years of age I am amazed, and deeply saddened that so many people who I have known for so very long couldn't even be bothered to call me once every blue moon just to say 'hi, haven't heard from you in a while, everything ok?' I used to take the initiative but just can't any more if I am to retain any self respect. Pets are so much better than most people as they will never betray you and will remain staunchly loyal until and including the day they die.
@@liana2136nah, pets will run away if they don't like you, regardless of the food supply. Maybe for you, you only think the pet is loyal because you feed it. Pretty sad
Some great topics.... I have learnt this too, that most people dont actually care.... there's no empathy or understanding...and lots I found when you do meet up with them, talk non stop about themselves... just having a couple of good friends is enough. Thank you for your videos 🥰
Same experience here in Switzerland. People or so-called friends constently talk about themselves. But if you ask questions, they feel slightly offended and think that I'm nosy.
In the last days, critical times hard to deal with will be here. Men will be lovers of themselves, self assuming, haughty, blasphemous, not open to any agreement, having no natural affection...... (reach the entire scripture....describes exactly how people are today).. 2 Timothy 3:1-5
So true. At age 63, I am realizing that most people I know, family members included, couldn't care less whether I live or die. I have not seen my "good friends" since before the pandemic. No calls; no emails; no texts; not even Christmas cards anymore. I am finding, though, that I am quite happy without all the noise, rubbish, chaos, and insincerity. I feel I am coming home to myself and I love what I find there. I am less inclined now to allow other people to be a disruption to the life I want to live. You live, you learn!
You're so right! My parents have both not long died and my close friend took her own life last year. I've had no success getting my brother and his wife to be friendly so I've given up and have only my husband and 2 sons + their wives
dark reality of life. Singapore police too dont care dont bother to even investigate violent crime case if you are nobody even with hundreds of witnesses. if you are powerful or wealthy, so many police manpower will be used to hunt and investigate even if ceo is not innocent victim.
I feel this! Just remember to love the people that love you and let the rest go. I have family members that really don’t talk to me and it hurts because I love them very much and we were close, but they’ve chosen to be angry about things. I have no control over. I just focus on the people that love me and I love them back and I plan vacations with them and I go places with them and I do things with them.
Crystal, seriously sorry for your recent losses, tragic and, I fully appreciate, totally heartbreaking. However, I am thinking that one husband, two sons and their wives (and possibly grandchildren in future?!), ain't such a bad result. Focus your love on them and cherish their love for you. Many people have soooo much less! Just sayin'!
I work in a healthcare organization (mental health). I have seen after years of experience, that colleagues do not care much about each others welfare, judging by actions. I practice asking myself, how would scenarios play out if decent well intentioned people were part of it, because i wonder if the humdrum of daily life doesnt hypnotize and numb us to the indifference in society. That is, until a new colleague or friend seems like a breath of fresh air. Its a bitter-sweet realization.
Spot on Chris. Sadly we make the mistake of thinking other people care for us and want the best for us as we do for them, unfortunately it usually turns out that they really don’t 😒 We can’t and shouldn’t change who we are because of the ‘asshole’ character of others though.
at times we must question selves too , as to what we can do for them instead of the other way round. if there are no conditions these things don't matter.
I could not agree more with you! Even my own siblings or kin, or those I thought to be close friends, etc.. I've realized a long time ago that people are not capable of loving other than what benefits them, period. I'm lonesome and lonely and none care even though I've MYSELF ALWAYS been there for them and showed up ANYTIME when they needed me.. But when I needed, 'though every rare now and again, they're just no-shows, not available (meaning not interested) and as usual. ..indifferent. I don't believe anyone anymore. One more lesson learned here out of life.
Totally agree my mum's sister and her husband my uncle Ronnie showed that they really cared and were always there for me when I needed them ❤ the rest of my family I never here from them and obviously are not bothered but I always knew that anyway as my father never got on with them.😊
Most people view people other than their own immediate family as either a convenience or an obstacle to getting what they want. The vast majority of people are looking out for themselves and their own children/grandchildren.. everything else they do such as working for the community or catching up with friends is about brownie points or a distraction or time filler..once you accept this, you can never look at the woeld in the same way again..
I have at least one relative/sibling who would want me to listen to them for ages, but wouldn't do the same for me, and would talk over me in a conversation. I don't think they are worth it, and are what people now call "toxic." So, just because someone is in your inner circle, they might as well be a total stranger.
25 years in psychiatric and behavioural for 25 years. You are describing a B-Cluster Personality narcissist. Behaviour is a language and these toxic beings do talk over you and like to suck energy by talking about them and feeding their super ego.6/100 people are in that category so look for an empath as they are loving, caring and honest and do not play mind games. Avoid the narcissist and if they fool you then discard them and go no contact.
A few years ago I was getting harassed in the town centre from a drunken guy. I asked for help and nobody helped me. They just stood and watched. I did eventually get away from him. That changed my opinion of people. I now don't share my personal life with anyone. I've stopped posting what I'm up to on social media. I will only tell people things if they need to know.
This is why I started relying on myself. Losing the two people who were my rocks in life this year has been hard and surprisingly I definitely learnt that a couple of people I had not talked to in a while actually came through for me. Others I thought would do so really let me down. You never really know.
@@snapperurban Sorry to say Chris but this statement kinda totally contradicts everything you've just said in this and a couple of other vids chap!! Just observin'!
Yeah its unfortunate but true. I am the same way. Just care and focused on my family and very few friends. I would rather this then have toxic relationships etc. Of course I still give respect and am polite to anyone I meet but I realise they are just acquaintances.
Cold, hard truth. Thanks, Chris. It took a while to realise this fact, and while it’s freeing, it can also feel a little unsettling at times. P. S enjoying the daily vlog 👍🏾
Gladly true, we all have stressors in our lives whether we want them or not. Only our closest friends will listen to us get those stressors off our chests. It is impolite to talk about our problems with colleagues and associates we've been taught. I totally agree with your view on not being a 'nad within our society, and I do agree with being kind to others who have nothing to offer us in return. For example: I put some outdoor Christmas lights around my old black walnut tree so that the people who just bought the house above me have something nice to look out at and maybe feel more welcome in their new neighborhood.
Your Mum and Dad are the only people who will stick by you through to the end. Siblings are an entirely different matter, their compassion and loyalty often depending on the early bonding between brothers and sisters. Ill health is often a good litmus test to see family loyalty.
Good on you brother! You are spot on. I have a father- in- law who is old,in a care home,frail but with it, has not had a visit from most of his grandchildren WHO in the past has given them support/ money ( lots). Build inner strength and try not to seek validation from people who generally don’t care.
I'm 51 looking after my mother she is not well, our so called family don't care about her welfare or mine absolutely toxic family, I asked for help but falls on deaf ears,greetings from Ireland.
I agree i looked after my elderly Parents, my brothers and sisters never cared about them.never visited or cared, no conscience either about how they treated us.
You’re right, it is sad isn’t it? Maybe it’s a sign of the times. I don’t know but all I know is is that I try to be respectful and kind to those that I meet I think if you can do that it’s a good thing but thank you for sharing I appreciate it.
"People don't care" that's a good slogan for Western culture. Fortunately, in different cultures, let's say in central & eastern Europe, it's just the opposite the emotional connection among family & close friends it's cherished that they will be on your side no matter what The idea/propaganda of individualizm in our Western culture has its price & the consequences of it are hard to swallow.
nonsense - in the East it is the same since western consumerism and TV programms came here in 90s. Culture is now global, there is no old world anymore.
Here’s what I think about the spirit of giving, especially with regards to neighbors or certain family members; give them the gift of wisdom. Remain faithful to Christ. Be careful with your purchases, especially as you near retirement for we know not the hour of retirement. In other words, certain neighbors think they’ll ride the wave to retirement according to their plans. Also, money saving tips that may increase their wealth by as much as $4500 per year. It comes in handy. I donate to two charities: the local church and the local pantry. My husband and I have no high minded ideas of world travel. We’re too tired and less tolerant for the general public. Simple, right? Merry Christmas. Retired Trucker Mary Wisconsin, USA

Chris... You have to understand that the vast majority of people are just "Out for themselves" ... My advice is this.. Lower your expectations of other people... Once you have done this your life will be much better. The best person you can invest in..Is yourself.
I show people when i dont care about them. Life is too short to fake it. People should know that you don't want them to interfere with your life. Whether family, strangers, etc
Been on kidney dialysis 15 years since I was 40. Two sisters and a brother disappeard on me. Haven't seen or talked to them for over 10 years. Gave up trying. Too much stress had to let them go. Same with my 'parents' don't even know were they are or if they're dead. No kidney for me b/c no Medicaid. Your country don't care about you either. All about profits on Wall street (dialysis monopoly Davita).
My mum had dialysis for many years including capd and it was tough. So I’ll pray for you today . I’m so sorry for the lack of support in your life and I hope that changes. We all need to feel that someone cares. Try to stay strong and keep fighting. Life is hard but you can always improve. Kind regards to you and best wishes. Chris
@@snapperurban America does not care about it's people. I've done the opposite of what 'doctors' have told me to do and I'm still here! I just want to live long enough to see one of them in the 'chair' experiencing the pain and misery we have gone through all for profits on Wall Street (Davita) monopoly. Thanks for the thoughts. Merry Christmas!
The funny thing here is that this man, and whoever is seeing this, are "most people" too. . . 😂 Admit it, there are people you don't really care about either. It is what it is
Family is the first group of people to stab in the back. For years, I have been working and struggling to get ahead in life for decades but to no avail. Where is my familiy? Every person in my family is doing better than me. My brothers and sister each have a home. I rent a basement studio in someone else's property. Where is my family? I don't want or need people like this at my funeral in the future. What for? I am 59 years old. My son has not made an effort in 8 years to reunite with me. Like you said, nobody cares.
In New York it is illegal to step in and try to protect someone who is being victimized by crime. It is a crime to intervene and try to protect victims. Punishable by extensive jailtime. Only police officers are allowed to intervene. Not civilians. Please know this if you are visiting NY.
No, it is not illegal to step in to help someone being victimized in an active crime in New York City. New York has legal provisions that can help someone avoid criminal or civil penalties if they use force to protect themselves or others.
@@scottyhotty1003 Please read about the difference between "stand your ground" vs. "duty to retreat." New York is a "duty to retreat" state. In practice (effectively), defending yourself or others from violence in New York could get you into serious trouble. Especially if you hurt or do worse to the perpetrator. Much more so than in a "stand your ground" state.
@@user-kv4yt7ly8o that's entirely different than stepping in to help an active victim of a crime. I am a lifetime New Yorker too. There is no law against this.

@@keepitsimple4629 you’re a great dad. I can tell . I wish you both a fantastic Christmas together l!
@@snapperurban I'm actually a mom. He'll cook us a filet mignon, and we'll celebrate without my other son.
@ well your a great mom and that sounds delicious 🤤 enjoy your meal!
I know... But least I get to laugh. Sometimes
Nice guy 😊
Thanks! 😃
Can you please get rid of the subtitles? You have a wonderful, easy to understand voice. The subtitles have grammatical and spelling mistakes and some are just incorrectly transcribed. They just detract from your interesting videos.
Hi. I no longer have subtitles on my new videos. I was asked two weeks ago and stopped using them. I hope you find the new ones a lot better. The older ones I can’t do much with unfortunately. I kind regards, Chris
@ albert. Talking over you! So rude and prevalent. I just quit the conversation then
my own daughter told me she didnt really need a dad.. result? i vanished...27 years ago....
Why the need to add subtitles? I'm not deaf. If I was, I can turn on You Tube subs. Turned off because of this.
My next three videos do have them . I’m just supporting my deaf followers of which three are grateful but I will
Post on Wednesday without and see how they go.
@@snapperurban My point is, you don't need to add them. If someone can't hear you, they can click the CC button at the bottom of the screen, and that will turn on the subs.
@@Sonya_Makepeace no worries and thanks for letting me know I will remove them from Wednesday onwards Sonya. Thanks for letting me know! Have a great Sunday
@@snapperurban Will do xxx ♥
If I 'were', not 'was'.
Please delete your subtitles - they're really annoying
All my new videos don’t have subtitles. Sorry about that.
People are inherently selfish. Which is fine. Unless you ACT like you give a crap
People are shit
I really needed to hear this. Thank you random TH-cam stranger. You just earned a sub 🫶
Thank you for coming along with me on this journey 🙏🏻
