The Problem of the self and the Other as Object :(

I think the main problem here is the way we perceive the existence of the other either as a subject or an object. The way we present our selves to others and how we want others to see us are caused by over-emphasis on the self.. In this way, you are stealing the importance of the Other. Treating human beings as objects denies the existence of the other. By doing such, you are not only removing the value of the other, you are also allowing yourself to be rejected by others.
