Giving 100% means giving something your all knowing the risks and possible consequences involved, which includes getting hurt. We all unintentionally and sometimes intentionally put up emotional defenses to protect ourselves from getting hurt in relationships and the ‘I don’t care’ attitude is one of them.

Some people get so good at it that they can just switch moods in a heartbeat. They can go from sad to happy and block out certain thoughts. They can be in an argument with a boyfriend or girlfriend one minute and laughing and talking with friends the next. They’ve become trained and experienced at leaving us to become the ones that take the beatings, and it is then that we can slowly become like them.

The catch is, two with the same attitude cannot last. One will always need another to balance out the equation and if both were to have the same ‘i don’t care’ mentality, there would be no positive outcome.
