please don't..you won't like it..trust me.
i have that attitude naturally and guess what it's called?
apathy
http://www.thefreedictionary.com/apathy

it's came about from years and years and years of anger
and resentment..til one day i snapped and i no longer gave a
sh*t about anything or anybody.I simply don't care,
if that's the type of attitdute you want, be prepared to
have to go through alot of pain in order to get it.

It's developed from an inability to cope with negative feelings
in a healthy way..so you shut down emotionally.
It's not the best way to go about things , trust me-
you don't want to 'not care' , because it makes life
very very very depressing and lonely.
It's nothing like how it's portrayed as being soo cool...
because it's not. I'd trade it in for a clear conscience
any day of the week.

why do you want this type of mindset soo badly?
all it is is a defense mechanism to keep people at a distance
and not let anyone in..do you really want that?
because that's whats gonna happen...

I'm not sure if that's what it really means...

I guess i know a little about what you are talking about. I have a history of taking everything to heart and burning out on it, untill i finally burned out bigtime when a LTR ended a couple years ago. Now i just don't care...

Things that used to bother me or fired up a sense of injustice just don't register anymore. I can just ignore it, it doesn't bother me at all. Tbh, it's easyer!

I guess a lot of things aren't what they appear to be. It's fun to act that way, it's not fun to be that way. I think it's much better if you focus on a positive attitude. Try to be more of an optimist and salvage what you can from a bad situation.

Optimism > apathy

And essentially, a positive attitude may actually be more what you are looking for when you picture the attitude you want to get.

Not giving a rip is the attitude of the jerk. It gets women with insecurities all caught up in the jerk's *game*. It causes them to seek his approval because of his indifference.

It will get you the hot insecure girls with LSE, but won't get you a quality girl.
