Indifference may occur as an attitude or behaviour to a problem or opinion that makes you feel rather subjective or supportive in your response. This means that even when you are observant of a case or what is going on around you , you may feel unable to make a difference. Instead of trying, you simply shrug your shoulders and move on.
This is very typical of someone who doesn't seem to be concerned about people, actions or motives of others, when you feel indifferent about an opinion and rather viewed in a different perspective. This definitely makes you seem like the enemy or friend in such situations. Let's not be ignorant of the fact that there are times when being indifferent might be inappropriate as intended. You focus on yourself only than consider giving your response, a helping hand or making a positive change. In moments that requires your attention, you choose to act irresponsibly by not showing concern and need for your response or action.
Love and Hate doesn't exist in this personality. It traps you in the middle; where you disregard people's expectations from you. It's more like you fancy being insensitive to your emotions because they seem irrelevant to you. In this light, you don't care if people love you or not or what they think of you. Having to embrace this phenomenon may cause you to be alone without having someone to relate with when you eventually need them. Do you agree that being hurt or loved by someone is an exercise for your emotions? It helps you confirm how much you can take in emotionally and how to manage your responses in situations that requires your input.
You can be indifferent in a situation where all you seek for is peace and rather choose to be silent for awhile to cool off the tension around you. But being indifferent when it's now time to discuss on the issue at hand either you are the victim or accomplice, would definitely be insensitive. Having no interest or unconcerned at that particular time, is quite a show of reluctance and disregard for change.
In business, it is necessary to exhibit some traits for customer retention such as enthusiasm, empathy and reliability. These traits help to guarantee their loyalty, trust and continued business with you. In the case whereby you only consider making money but don't pay attention to their needs and complaints, it simply portrays your apathetic behaviour - indifference; by being nonchalant, emotionless and careless. It definitely causes you to lose opportunities with customers who doesn't feel worthy or appreciated of their business with you.
It is better to express your emotions regardless of what reaction you get than to be silent to your thoughts. In order not to get the same treatment from people when you actually need them, it is better to always express yourself with a response or action whether you have the right perspective or not. Having someone to defend you or scold you is better than not knowing if what you have done is good or bad.
Be that voice that someone needs to hear regardless.
