I'm done with love. I'm too old to keep "starting over". I no longer believe that there is a right man for me. I'm done. I'm just..... done. I don't want to feel anything anymore. EVER! I don't want to feel ANYTHING but numb!
Not love
Not pain
Not jealousy
Not false hope
Not trust
Not security
Not comfortable
Not safe
Not ANY OF THAT ! Just Numb!

Aweeee Alone, so sorry that you feel so sad, so empty and hurt. I have been there. Maybe not the same way as you but I have felt the feeling you wrote about.
I do not know your age, and I am not saying your feelings are your age.....ok?
Just know that when I was younger I had those feelings. And where you are they hurt really bad.
What I am saying is....know who you are!!!! Know how wonderful you are!!!!! Know that you don't need anyone to make you feel better!!! You don't need anyone to validate YOU. You are wonderful.... You are you. Whoever that is. Whoever you have chosen to be. Do not allow Anyone to give up on love, on feelings, security, etc etc!!!!!
Been there!! Please think about what I have said!!!

I'm sorry you are in so much pain . I can relate to love being the same as pain, because it hurts when your love seems to go unnoticed or the person seems to reject it.

But, I don't think you should give up on love. It is a precious thing to have. Love is the angel that walks beside you in life, there to fulfil your every wish. Even the Holy Spirit sometimes has the name of Love. Protect it.

And, don't wish for numbness, it is terrible. I have felt it. As a person with an extremely low EQ, the sum total of my feelings is about 3. I am empty, I feel mostly nothing, only loss and guilt. But, the third, albeit rare, feeling I have is love, and that I would never ever give away. I would rather have that one great feeling than 100 other feelings. I consider myself extremely lucky, that despite my mental difficulties, and emotional wasteland, I can feel the one greatest emotion anyone can feel.

Now, I may not be able to accomplish much given all my issues and despite my ability of feeling love deeply (it has gone unrequited my whole life basically), I still would never trade it for numbness. Numbness is never numbness in the true sense, it's a terribly painful feeling and is like being in hell.

I can't get right, I can get stable, can't stay consistent with ANYTHING. I'm tired of trying! I'm done!

Thank you. Yes, I am willing to have friends, and to talk to all of you wonderfully supportive people! I'm just disgusted with myself right now.
