Which is correct?
Which is correct?
1. The more she'll get hurt, the more indifferent person she'll become.
2. The more she'll get hurt, the more indifferent of a person she'll become.
So, the difference is whether we can insert "of a" in front of "person." Is it grammatically correct to say "the more indifferent of a person?"
I thought #1 is correct, but then some of my friends said that #2 sounds more natural. Any opinion?

However, the meaning seems odd. It is hard to see how someone could become more indifferent as a result of being hurt.
