How To See People As Individuals

[love]

How to see people as individuals rather than objectifying them (taking them for granted)? What's the opposite of taking someone for granted?

Appreciating them, feeling lucky they're in your life, etc.

I guess one way to get there is experience and a lot of scars from people not worth your time.  Then it's possible to appreciate the truly special people out there.

My advice would be to work on yourself and let your perspective of others change through that over time. It's hard to fake not taking them for granted. If you now take people for granted then just make sure you're fine with other people seeing you that way so that there's no unfair double standard.

You see them this way for a reason and it has it pros and cons. You can think about those and you can think about what other ways you could see them. Maybe you can or can't figure it out, don't worry too much about justifying it.

Make sure to meditate because I feel like if you're seeing others like that you're probably very much in your head. That's not always a bad thing but just saying.
