I feel so bad when i am unable to feel enotions especially thr negative ones the way others can feel..

I have never been able to feel what emotional hurt feels like.. sometimes i wish ti cry like normal people over things that should be hurting me.. but i have such a bad Idea about the world and people around that I am never able to feel the hurt the pain it's almost like invincibility but i hate it.. i wish to be like normal people who can feel sadness.. when you get sad over someone it proves that you love em but that just doesn't happen with me... I hate to say this but the more i know about a person the lesser i tend to havd respect for them in my mind which might seem harmless to everyone but not me.. even when anyone betrays me cheats me.. i can't feel the hurt.. i often force myself to live like i do but in truth i don't..

I feel like I am stuck in a strong situation but my emotional powers exceed those around me. and i so badly want to ne like em and be loved but it nvr happens.. I am ashamed of myself i feel like i lie everytime i claim to love someone. as my love is not validated by sad emotions... i m tired & struggling with this so called power i might be good with but i never asked for it.. i want all my powers taken away by God so i can leave like a normal person and feel hurt as much as i feel the love.......

It is not good to feel bad. To believe this is nothing more than confusion. Good is good and bad is bad. People lie and say that it is good and okay to feel sad and cry to make it easier, not because it is true. Sadness is natural but it is not normal. If there is sadness obviously something is wrong, not right. If one feels no elation or sorrow, this is nothing more than emotional stability. This is seen as insensitivity but it is stability. Because there is the will to emotionally relate to others this is concern for the emotions of others, not insensitivity. This is compassion.

@oneamongstyou285 @oneamongstyou285 Hi, I'm sorry that you're going through that. It is a blessing that frustrates you. I understand how that feels, but differently I normally don't have emotions. It's probably the best that you can't be emotionally hurt. that's a blessing that many other people wish to have. but I understand how frustrating that can be, best of luck.

I understand where you are coming from. To feel sadness can be a positive thing. Like you said, to confirm that you love someone. I might say that you have a compassionate heart for wanting to connect with others. This probably stems from a deeper issues and I don’t want to steer you wrong. It might be beneficial to talk with a therapist and get some understanding on why you struggle with that connection. Personally, I have felt detached from other people as well. My detachment stemmed from depression and being emotionally drained within my relationships. It took a lot of time and support for me feel that connection with others and myself again. It is confusing because you want to feel those emotions. It is great that you were able to vocalize what you have been going through.
