I don't feel amazing at all. I feel like I'm not worthy of love or even lovable. But I've been reflecting and decided to put my focus into my life purpose and trying to make a difference in the world. If I'll never have love, at least I can give my life meaning, you know? I'm looking into getting involved with Random Acts and Attitudes in Reverse, and maybe some other organizations. Try to help people and reach out. I think having meaning and purpose in your life is really important. I want to let go of the past, put it behind me, not look back and just move forward.

You can't make people love you. Either they do, or don't. And none of us have control over that. And I'm not going to waste my life wishing my parents loved me and wishing I had feelings of belongingness and family. I'm just....going to go out there, give and find love and do my thing. And if my "Family" isn't on board, I no longer care. I have things to do with my life.

Good for you! You took your power back and decided to move forward. Good luck and best wishes finding a “family” of your choice where you have a sense of love and belonging.

attentionThis is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.
