And to define what 'not treating others well' is:

• No interest in, and little or no time for, the other.
• Asking no questions about the other's life or how they are doing.
• Being entirely self-focused.
• Looking for encouragement and support, but not giving it in return.
• Not showing appreciation for the other.

I'm only giving two multiple choice options, which I know is limiting, but it's purposeful. I'm trying to distill a complex issue down to brass tacks.

Thank you, in advance, for all comments and thoughts on the matter. Feel free to elaborate. I'd love to hear your anecdotal and personal stories of how you felt, from either vantage point, and what you concluded and did about it.

P. S. The main reason I left GAG years ago is because GAG sucks ass now, due primarily to management issues being made.
I wasn't going to mention it, but it's happening right now, as I am trying to post this question.

They have programmed A. I. to take over my title, and is repeatedly changing the wording on it.
Fuck off, GAG, and A. I. I will decide what I want to say, and exactly how to say it.

My title should be: Is depression or chronic stress a valid reason not to treat others well?

@LaFemmeFatale_1 asked me something about my love life earlier… and it actually stuck with me and made me think…

I’ve known someone for a long time. He’s intelligent, funny, has depth… but opening up has always been a slower process for him. It’s something that unfolds over time…. Like a really long time. We started out as just friends and then we decided to try something more…

And then there’s someone I met more recently…

We could barely communicate at first because of the language barrier lol, but somehow we kept gravitating back to each other… laughing, losing track of what we were doing like it just flowed naturally. I actually posted about him some months ago and you guys were sharing with me how you’ve dated someone who spoke another language primarily.

What stood out to me though… was the effort. And even emotionally… he didn’t rush it, but he didn’t avoid it either.

He told me:

“De nada, con gusto… es bueno saber un poco y te diré poco a poco.” (I’ll tell you more little by little.) …And he did.

He’s also the guy I was talking about when I posted about going on a date.. and asking you guys whats a good first date… anyway..

That made me question something… because I feel like we tend to assume history means more.

But what if someone new is showing you more intention?

So what matters more to you in the end?
