Suviving SHTF situation requires that you become an amoral bastard
Do you realize that if SHTF, you need to become a morally corrupt psychopath to survive. You need to be able to do whatever's required. Stealing from women and children, casually killing people just to thin down the numbers (competition, mouths to feed,...), torturing people for vital information, abandoning the wounded/sick/pregnant (while taking their supplies to yourself), and backstabbing your buddies and allies to grab whatever's available. Any alliances will be short-term and based on convenience, mutual distrust and fear. You need to totally harden yourself against all pleading, mercy and unselfish behavior. You need to be able to commit horrible atrocities without becoming paralysed by it. It's all about YOU - survival, greed and opportunism.

You can prep all you want, but if you're mentally unable to turn into a beast like this, you will not survive.

I doubt a backstabbing prick like that would survive for long.

Wow you are a lonely person and will die off quickly because of it. You've been conditioned not to talk to your neighbors and to not trust your family and friends.

We live in a small rural community of approximately 700 people. We all know eachother and talk to eachother. We all know what to look for and how to eliminate it when you show up in town.

You can only be betrayed if you have friends or allies. I agree with the lone wolf strategy of OP.

Morals are directly proportional to the fullness in ones belly.
A man with a full stomach that eats well everyday will have a different set of morals compared to not have eaten a bite in three weeks.

Everything's relative.
We do not learn from history because our studies are brief and prejudiced. In a surprising manner, 250 years emerges as the average length of national greatness. This average has not varied for 3,000years. The stages of the rise and fall of great nations seem to be:
The Age of Pioneers , The Age of Conquests ,The Age of Commerce ,The Age of Affluence ,The Age of Intellect ,The Age of Decadence.
Decadence is marked by: Defensiveness, Pessimism, Materialism,Frivolity An influx of foreigners The Welfare State A weakening of religion. Decadence is due to: Too long a period of wealth and power, Selfishness Love of money ,The loss of a sense of duty.
The life histories of great states are amazingly similar, and are due to internal factors. Their falls are diverse, because they are largely the result of external causes. - Sir John Glubb The Fate of Empires
We are at the end of the Age of Decadence heading into COLLAPSE

Truth^^
The OP did not explain it quite so eloquently ...

We all like to believe we would never do anything like OP described, but the truth is, we really do not know what we would or wouldn't do in a shtf survival situation..

Wonderful, kind, loving people turn into animals to survive..and sometimes, the ones you think are the worst people can surprise you and shine in those situations..

You would have to live it to know what you would or wouldn't do..

You accept the love you think you deserve~~~

Love cannot live where there is no trust~~~

Ya well I have starved before and it did not make me into a monster. Squirrel eater, yes. Food waster, no. Amoral? NEVER! Best to start skipping meals now to prepare.

We all die eventually survival for survival sake is not the end all be all. You prep to take care of those you love for as long as there is hope that you will be around when things get better. You can keep your Morals in the SHTF just not your naivete. What you do in this world will determine what comes after. If you are so sure there is nothing after why go through the motions one bullet ends the struggle. And starving in a group is an achievement because you managed to be in death who you were in life not a fake asshole in it for himself.
