<font color=purple>Hi. In your messages you often talk of those you care about and love and that shows you have feelings and are expressing them. Perhaps you are underestimating yourself. You say you can express yourself and you also express yourself well here. You talked about an intellectual level of interest in others. If this is presenting a problem and for a long time I think seeing a counselor about it might be the answer for you. They have techniques to help us when we have these sort of problems.

I wonder if you just haven't met any people lately who you really want to get to know better. Maybe there isn't a lot of compatibility with those you've met more lately, too. I don't know for sure, I'm just coming up with ideas for you.

When I was in college I needed to operate on an intellectual level. That's how many there are and to their benefit. It's almost a necessity there and it helps a person to be that way to get through the experience. Being very intellectual is rewarded in college, too. We can have our intellectual side and feeling side, too, at the same time. I think finding a balance feels better to us, though.

I think the reasons this is happening to you is within you and the way to get rid of it is working it out with a counselor. This may take some time and that's why I suggest it. Finding a balance might be helpful but the counselor can show you how best. There may be things to explore in depth. Best wishes to you and hope you keep posting and reading here.
