Hello, question asker!
Given that you say you have no interest in anything, that nothing seems to matter to you, and that you have no expectations for the future, what should you do?
I'd say that many people have been in this situation before.
But we can look at why you're currently uninterested in everything. Has anything happened recently that made you feel bad?
You mentioned some of your views on handling friendships. You said that you are very suspicious of everyone, that you feel that people are mutually exclusive, and that if you are friendly to others but they are not friendly to you, you will definitely not get along with them anymore.
We shouldn't be suspicious of others, but we should also be aware of what's going on. We should have a sense of boundaries when getting along with others, which can protect our inner order and our moral bottom line.
That said, there's still a place for trust outside of these boundaries. When we trust each other and interact with mutual respect, we can achieve a lot of happiness and growth.
Ultimately, people aren't as bad as we think. It's just that the questioner is on guard because of some previous hurt? A betrayal of friendship?
If that's the case, it'd be a good idea to talk to a counselor if you can, and work through some of these issues as soon as you can. That'll help you handle relationships better, and it'll also help you grow.
Feeling like there's no point in trying anymore.
If you're feeling unmotivated or lacking in enthusiasm, it can be helpful to reflect on past experiences that have given you a sense of accomplishment and satisfaction. How did those things happen?
Are we in a position to carry out similar tasks to achieve this feeling?
Another way to feel a sense of accomplishment and happiness is to help people in need without expecting anything in return. For example, I've helped pick up a bunch of cardboard for sanitation workers, who are usually very happy to say thank you.
If you see an elderly person who doesn't know how to take the subway, help them out by giving them the right directions. You can even give someone a bouquet of flowers for free. It might make you feel a little embarrassed, but you'll really feel an indescribable joy in your heart when you get feedback from others. While spreading this kindness, we can also feel the meaning and joy of giving.
I'm a big thinker, and I love the world! Thanks for reading!

I understand feeling disconnected can be really tough. Maybe starting small, like greeting someone with a smile, could help open up those social channels again.
Sometimes we have to give people a few chances before they return kindness. It's hard, but it can lead to more meaningful connections over time.
It sounds like you're carrying a lot of weight. Have you thought about talking to a professional who might help you work through these feelings?
Feeling indifferent and isolated is challenging. Engaging in activities you once enjoyed or trying new ones might bring back some interest and purpose.
You're right that relationships are a twoway street, yet sometimes the best connections come from unexpected places when we least expect it.
