If someone doesn't care about you, you can still care about yourself! Chances are, you have probably been ignoring your own needs while trying to win someone else's attention. So try shifting that attention to yourself. Treat yourself to a meal, buy yourself something nice, talk to someone who does care about you.

Think of the energy that it takes to care about that person as if it were a physical substance. Remember that you are wasting energy on someone who doesn't deserve it; energy that you could be using for someone else. Why give that energy to someone else that will return it? Why not use it for yourself? Some people aren't worth it, so please don't waste your time or energy on them.

To start caring about yourself first. Take good care of yourself and you won’t be dependent on anyone else to meet your needs. Living with someone you don’t trust to help you must be very stressful and depressing. We can only change how we feel and think. Trying to make someone do something to help you become stronger and listen and work with you when they have no desire to do so, is only going to make you feel worse again. Be strong and depend and believe in yourself. with time and practice you’ll be closer to fulfilling your dreams you want and deserve. Never give up!

I really wish I had the answer but I am struggling with the same thing. I guess you just have to move on because there are better people out there. You don’t deserve that nobody does. My best answer is that if he/she doesn’t see how great of a person you and he/she isn’t the right person for you. It might hurt and you might be saying to yourself how do I make he/she like me but you shouldn’t say any of that. You have to move on and find things that make you happy and most importantly spend time with you best friend.

I have did that so i will answer this from my experience. It's not easy. It's painful. It takes quite an amount of time, depending on the person you are. It took me a while but what helped me is self-love. No matter what you go through because of other people mistreating you or hurting you, if you love yourself enough, you heal quicker. I was sad and mad because that person had given up on me, and it took me a while to realise that i had given up on me too. Giving yourself up is the worst thing you can do. Be there for you. Love you. Support you. And never blame you for things others do to you. ❤️

Breakups can be hard and a starting step In moving on is to accept the fallout and stop caring for the person, which is also the most difficult part considering the memories ,happy moments, the habit of that person in your life and the attachment with them. I guess, the person about whom you want to stop caring has already given you enough reasons as to why you should, considering you're thinking about it . So keeping In mind those reasons, the way they treat you like they are unaffected by you, and how you would agree that you will do so much better emotionally once you stop caring about every little action or word of theirs, slowly distancing from them ,not just via talking or meeting but also distancing emotionally, reminding yourself to stay strong and take all the time to process any emotions and do what's best for you . It's so very okay to keep yourself first, because no one else will , and You really gotta do you! ❤

Remind yourself that they are not worth your time. Focus your attention on and spend time with the people who do care about you.

Try to avoid seeing or talking to them if it's possible, block their number/social media and take up new hobbies to distract yourself
