I don't hurt anybody anymore, I pay close attention to what I say and do. The problem is that I don't feel any real emotions when it comes to relatively "happy" relationships. No trust, sympathy, or love. The only positive vibe I get is when I surprise someone with quality and they give me admiration (we both know it's not a progress).

I discarded everyone I knew from before the theraphy. They didn't like me anyway, it's for their own sake. I'm talking about new people who, I believe, think highly of me as of this moment. I worked for it and I kinda liked it but I just just don't feel it.
