You will learn, not every person you care about will care about you. This may be hard to grasp but it needs to be noted for future reference. Some people will genuinely care about your happiness, wellbeing, and success. While others will listen intently during your conversations only to keep tabs on anything that could be used as ammunition for the future. As you notice which category each person falls into, make sure you adjust accordingly. Remember, not everyone that is your friend or family, is really your friend or family. Start paying attention to who each person is presenting as.
