Value of The Person

In terms of their social connections, this may be stating the obvious, but, socially, no one person has an objective value. 

Other people can help you discover the value of your person, the independent, objective, unconditional, never changing value of your person. That is the only possible way, that your objective value can rise, socially, however, that discovery process is not an establishment of value: it is the end result of a DISCOVERY process. It is not creative. It is a realization, of truth.

So, once again, in the social realm, your social life, does not ever establish you, at a value that is independent of any other person.

And, in fact, it is worse than that even. Because, when you have any connection, any at all, any whatsoever, then, you enter that bond, having created the needs that you have, within every participant. They are needs, wants, desires, & requirement, that don't exist, in anyone, outside of being connected, to you.

So, not only can your social connections never prove, or establish your worth, & value, to anyone outside of that bond, that it is worse, and, the need to fulfill your needs is not a need that exists, outside of knowing you. So, it falls upon you, to justify why the needs that you non-negotiably introduce, make it worthwhile to know you, above and beyond the drain on the resources that you represent.
