..I don't like sharing my feelings, because I don' believe that people really care. However, I am always there for my friends and find it VERY VERY hard to confide in someone. I'd rather keep it to myself/
@ShareNconnect
When you talk with a listener here... You dont need to give much information & you get good support...
It's worthwhile...
That I crave emotional attention. I want to touched, not in a sexual way. I want to be held and told that I matter to someone. I want to sit or lie down with someone and have their skin brush mine on random moments as we have conversations about anything that comes to our mind; I want to be spoken to.

This really hits home for me. At some point in the adult life physical affection disappeared. As a teenager I was around a lot of people and we would snuggle and be close while watching movies. Now everything is so isolated, no touch, no deep communication really. I'm sorry you seem to be experiencing something similar, it's really lonely.
@gregariousWest2180 I am dealing with the exact same thing :(
@RavenHeart81
How does it end up like this? I'm so confused how the choices in my life have led to such isolation... You too?
@gregariousWest2180 I wish I knew. I'm married, and I love my wife, but there's no physical affection at all, and for the last several months, it has been killing me on the inside. I've tried initiating but she either pushes me away or she makes it sexual. Sometimes, wanting to cuddle is just wanting to cuddle. Even after sex, she's ready to just clean-up and go back to watching TV. What really hurts is when I think about a past relationship that was totally physically fulfilling on every level, but we could just never get our shit together at the same time.
How unhappy and bitter I am
@plumSugar4458 So am I.
Depends. But most ppl see me as that one girl always smiling, always happy and well apparently i'm also "too kind".
Although the truth is I'm never happy i'm always miserable. I struggle to smile nowadays, I'm tired of pretending everything is okay because i've never been okay.
@xunknownx
Being kind is wonderful, but sacrificing your sense of self is painful. Women are often told to smile in Western culture and it takes a major toll, effectively their told: mask your feelings, conform, don't make others uncomfortable. Well that's bogus, if you don't want to smile, don't smile. If you want to snarl, snarl, if you want to rage... Maybe rage, although that has its own problems.
@xunknownx
i know the feeling, cause I have or had the same problems in a way. It's part of what led me to my depression/burn-out this summer. By being too kind to those around me I lost one of the most person that matters to me, myself. I listened to my friends about their pain and problems that I forgot my owns and pretended I was okay. Even though I have my wonderful bestie with whom I could really talk of everything, it didn't help.
i had becoming some sort of sick and tired of what people thought I was.
In the end I learned that it's okay not to be okay. It's what makes us human and not some models of perfection. And sometimes you have to think of your own self care before it's too late.
My battle with porn addiction (that I am sort of still winning), how I got catfished by a horny, grieving brother months ago and how my current relationship may or may not be already dead.
They know that i don't talk.They know that i'm not useful,people are different when i talk they listen but then listen with words that hits you straight at the back.
They love backstabbing people who has feelings.
Feelings that are so fragile that i let them hold me and drops it into the hard floor.
They break you,you pick yourself back up piece by piece by piece.That's the way it is.
Once you've did and stood back up,You're different.
You're stronger but broken.
And you won't give yourself anymore to just anyone but myself.
Afraid that i was going to break again.
So i changed throughout the years.
I've kept silent from the past few years of my life.
And i thought that being quiet was a great thing.
It kinda was.
Most people don't know how to help me because I can't even help myself
One thing most people don't know about me is that I really fall in love with people easily but I am able to act. I mean, sometimes I'll say something as simple as "I like you", and sometimes people perceive it as just a passing compliment - but I'm actually saying to you "hey, I really like your personality and spending time with you, and I have let you into my heart." . And often when people don't realize that, I get heartbroken and nobody even knows about it.
@SpiritualDreamer92
You have a big heart which is a wonderful thing but the downside to having a big heart is that it is easily hurt.
@Quietman4875 Thank you and you‘re so right...
Maybe my past?
That I stuff my face with huge amounts of food everyday even though I hate eating just so I can say I'm not frigging dieting and my face looks like a zombie just coz it does. NOT because I don't eat enough.
