Not at all. It's when one has expectations for an interaction based ONLY on their own state of mind... that we have forgotten how to be humans. We focus on our own issues... rightfully. But we shouldn't point fingers while others are doing the same.

I completely agree with the basic premise, that we need to keep in mind that other people have their own struggles going on, which they may not feel like sharing with us. They might even (a huge problem I’m trying to ‘recover’ from) be so good at pretending to be fine, that you’d never know.

I’m still stuck on assuming they’re using others as a crutch, unless you’re thinking of specific cases where you have reason to think that? B/c a lot of requests for feedback are not in that category. Though some may be. For me, I want people to know that when I say “It’s fine”, it really is.
