Have you ever felt that you had given your all to something or someone and in the end after all what you had to give you realise that it didn’t matter to them as much you thought it did?
Complicated right!
You sacrificed your time on other things that really needed the utmost attention.
You sacrificed your sleep.
You sacrificed your mental peace.
You sacrificed even meals, skipping lunch or dinner at times.
You sacrificed so many things but it all went unnoticed.
Or maybe it was noticed for one day where they had to reward you, you got the reward and the next day everything was forgotten again.
All these sacrifices faded away when you really needed them to support you and stand for what is RIGHT but instead, you got replies like,
“I CAN’T HELP IT”.
Everyone is so focused on saving themselves that they sadly lose sight of what’s right and wrong. Instead of addressing the issues, they looked for the scapegoat. Someone without a voice, someone who can easily be silenced because they’re lower on the ladder.
But if silencing someone who is speaking right considered being powerful, then I pray that they brace themselves for the future.
How would you have dealt? Feel free to share your views in the comment section.
P.S. I really didn’t know what to name this post
‘Getting ignored’ is Painful. Especially, it hurts even more when we are expecting. I believe, the only way to deal with them is by stopping our minds from Overthinking/Expecting something in return.. What do you say ?

Getting ignored is not painful, if you have been ignored earlier, it wouldn’t matter much but earlier you didn’t get ignored. They paid attention, they listened but suddenly if things change and they start ignoring you is when the issue arises.
Ofc we can say stop overthinking and expecting but to be honest when you have given your 2-3 years the least a person can do is expect. We are expecting what we deserve.
If our expectations do not meet then its gonna hurt but the point here was to do the right thing but I guess the definition of what’s right for others was different than mine.
But you are right I guess, we can stop expecting from others. Difficult to implement but we can try.
