I feel so different to people around me, I have no interest in relationships, friendships, partying or any of the good stuff like that. I feel lonely sometimes, but I don't want company.

I'm not growing up emotionally, yet my body grows, I'm growing up on the outside, and that's what people see, and they expect me to be what I am on the outside when it's not really who I am. I think for me to 'grow up', I have to do things differently from most people. I think I have to find myself. but then what? I wonder.

I do feel like something's wrong with me sometimes. Why do I avoid human contact so much when everyone wants the same? I don't want to be in a 'relationship' with anyone, I don't want to bond, why? I feel like a robot with no emotions. I'm so numb.
It's interesting to me that the feeling of growing up is what makes you feel more empty. But I can see what you are saying about how you feel lonely at times, but don't want company. I bet that creates a lot of conflict (I know it does for me when it happens). You feel emotionless, but there is a part of you that wants that human contact because you feel that loneliness.

What do you think it is about growing up that causes that feeling?
