I assumed you didn't really meet your past self or give her enough attention, respect or love and so by extension your future isn't giving you that, but it seems i was off the mark
Your future self is yours to create.
I was surprised by my future self, he smirked at me i found him to be arrogant but i did find him much stronger and courageous so I rolled with it. The truth was i was a self-hating person back than and i found people who liked themselves a to be arrogant my future self wasn't arrogant he was just comfortable with himself.
