Description Existential philosophy's idea of the anxiety surrounding the person as an individual body/mind. The anxiety comes from the inability to ever connect to another person, thing, object- anything. The phrase, "I love you" can never express the feeling you may have for someone because it is only words. likewise, everything is just a feeling, a sight, an expression, nothing can become completely part of you to understand your view or experience so you will forever be alone because your perspective can never be mimicked.

In that case, why do you bother with other people at all? Surely you are the only person who exists then, and in that case can treat others like shit?

Not so.
