Someone does not care about something.
सांस्कृतिक पृष्ठभूमि
In Poland, being 'obojętny' in social matters is often criticized as 'znieczulica' (social numbness). It's a strong word used to describe people who don't help others in need. When a guest says 'jest mi obojętne' to an offer of food, a Polish host might take it as a sign to serve whatever they have best, but some might find it slightly unhelpful. There is a historical thread of stoicism in Polish literature where 'obojętność' is seen as a way to maintain dignity in the face of suffering. Younger generations in Poland often replace 'obojętne' with 'whatever' (po angielsku) or 'mi to rybka' (it's a fish to me).

Don't be too indifferent!
In a relationship, saying 'jest mi obojętne' too much can make your partner feel like you aren't interested in the relationship itself.
