Thank you for sharing your wise observations, Nour. Yes, I have experienced this many times. Sometimes people even speak better to their pets than their loved ones…changing tone completely from cruel and sarcastic to sweet and loving.

I hate it when you see a couple together and one, is completely ignoring the other preferring to text or whatever on their phone, as though that is their true love.

Yes, we can lose our appreciation for others in our lives and take them for granted. It is particularly sad when children show blatant disrespect for their parents who have raised and nurtured them (unless those parents were abusive.) We all need this reminder sometimes.
