What’s the real definition for not caring if people stay or go being fine alone?

So I’m even shocked surprised in myself about this whenever people just stop talking to me out of the blue or friendship ends I don’t care. I just started to be real with myself couple years ago people will come and go and nobody is your friend. I get over things really quickly now coming from a person who used to want friends badly in my teenage years after 19 I stopped giving a damn I told myself but recent months I really see I don’t. I say this is a really really good thing and I’m happy because I don’t expect much from people at all anymore.

You sound like someone I know lol. I think you’ve grown and became strong-minded. But I don’t think it’s healthy to have the mentality “nobody is your friend” and I understand it’s a defense mechanism to protect yourself for those who has left. It does not mean that you won’t meet the right people who would stay and grow with you. At times, it’s meeting the wrong people or they’re only serving a different chapter in your life. Other times, we also need to reflect if there’s any growth we needed to work on.

It just means you are confident in yourself and don’t care what others think. That’s a good quality and I wish more were like you!
