It is hard to have needs, especially emotional needs. Unfortunately, many people struggle when it comes to knowing what to do "emotionally". Husbands can especially struggle with this when a wife needs emotional support. I have that challenge with my husband, he tends to either "absorb" or thinks he needs to "fix" it and gets very frustrated. Men are of the mindset that being in touch with their emotions is "weak" or "not manly" so they tend to only learn how to "shut down" their emotions instead of actually growing emotionally to where they are more in touch with their emotional part, that stuff is for "women" they think.
I am sorry you are struggling with how others react to you, it really is just that they don't relate and don't know how to react.
