Why indifference hurts

Some people will gladly be treated with indifference. Sometimes I do too because i couldn't care less of what people think of me. But when I think about it, indifference makes a person almost non-existent. It is one thing to be ignored but indifference is like they couldn't see you at all. And I also speak about people who don't know you personally. It surely hurt if it is your family or friends that treated you with indifference. But I also feel this hurt of indifference even when I'm on my own with many people.

Hi, Like you I have been hurt by indifference of people sometimes. I am of a sensitive nature and would have this bothering me for some time. I still have not been able to figure a way out to not bother about those who show their indifference. I cannot gladly be treated with indifference. I can't help it as that is my nature. I agree with you that when we are shown indifference, we feel non-existent. I have felt as if I have no importance whatsoever. I try to stay away from such indifferent people as much as possible but still we cannot avoid them completely.
