There are people in the world who are not only able to give,
they are also able to receive, and as a result of this, they are not going to
be accustomed to running on empty. On the other hand, there are people who
going to be used to running on empty, and this is because they are unable to
receive.
It then won't matter how much they give, and their life is
likely to be harder than it needs to be. This is not to say other people will
realise this though, as they might see them as model human beings.
Giving
When someone is seen as being a 'selfless', they are likely
to be seen as living life in the right way. In this case, they are putting
their needs to one side and they are focusing on the needs of others.
Now, if one was so consumed by their own needs that they
were unable to be there for others, it is likely to be a sign that they are out
of balance. That is unless they are going through a challenging period in their
life, and this is stopping them from being able to be there for others.
Loss
For example, if one has lost someone they were close, they
are not going to have as much energy as they usually do. And along with this,
the pain of losing someone can cause them to retract from life.
The energy they do have will be used to take care of their
own needs during this time. However, this is not going to be something that
will last forever, and as time passes, it will be easier for them to be there
for others.
Approval
However, although being there for others is seen as being
better than being completely focused on one's own needs, they are both going to
lead to problems. The ideal will be for one to be there for themselves and to
be there for others.
If one can't truly be there for themselves, it is not going
to be possible for them to truly be there for others. Their reason for being
there for others is likely to be the result of their need for approval.
Self-Neglect
Therefore, they are not going to be there for others because
they are 'selfless', they are going to be there to fulfil their own needs. But
although their need for approval will end up being fulfilled, they are going to
be neglecting their other needs.
Pleasing others could be what feels safe, and this means the
reason they are not taking care of their other needs is because it could put
their survival at risk. This is not to say that their life would end if they
did put their needs first, but this can be how they see life at a deeper level.
