Everyone is so fake and shallow these days. Nobody really cares about anyone else, relationships are so transactional. Any books for this feel?

Everyone really longs for intimacy and human connection. Truly. Everyone is just afraid of putting themselves out there and getting rejected, hurt or embarrassed. That beautiful super model is really insecure like everyone else and is hoping for that exciting special person to sweep her off her feet. She gets nervous too

I know. I just like to point out that the human desire for intimacy is a lot more conditional than most like to admit and closely linked with social status.

Yeah. I think a lot of society is brought up to feel entitled. That fact is if you have negative value, you don’t deserve a partner. Survival of the fittest weeds out undesirables. A lot of the undesirables today really aren’t. They are usually very depressed and if they put effort in putting their life in the right direction and advancing, they would be undesirable
