"unconcerned" or "indifferent"?

I have another question regarding question 8 though. Is it missing a preposition for the answer "are inconsiderate"? Because "The truth is that you are inconsiderate ___ me or my feelings." seems a bit odd.

'inconsiderate' and 'free of emotion' #4 (permalink) Thu Oct 12, 2006 22:30 pm   'inconsiderate' and 'free of emotion'
 

1...'inconsiderate of me or my feelings'

2...There are two words for 'free of emotion', 'emotionless' and 'unemotional'. Although both these words mean 'lacking emotion', they can be used quite differently. The following are examples, not a comprehensive discussion.
'emotionless' can be used for someone who has a very blank expression on their face. They aren't showing any emotion. Possibly they have a mental disease or brain injury.
'unemotional' can refer to a presentation or argument. 'She made a very reasoned and unemotional analysis of the situation.'
