I didn't read the whole discussion but back to the original point. I think it's in our best interest to care about others and thats why you should love. Love to me meaning a genuine desire for others to be happy.
I think there is a connectivity between people emotionally. If you constantly engender negative feelings towards people, you will get the same back, and when people have negative feelings towards you they sometimes act on those feelings and do bad things to you. So learn to geniunely wish people well and less bad stuff will happen to you.
Also, as much as you might not like it, we are social animals and need people to be happy. I'm sure you know that on some level, and hey man, I genuinely want you to be happy, so give it a try.
