I guess its difficult for me to love another person, but I really wish I will be successful someday in being genuinely in love with someone.

I relate a LOT to what you've described. Even though I've been in several long-term relationships, over the years, I have struggled throughout each of them emotionally.
I continue to push myself harder and harder to get over my issues and allow myself to open up completely. Trusting another person absolutely seems to be something that I am unable to do in life. Yet, I am also unwilling to live my entire life alone.
