    It's weird like I never got the feeling of loving someone like I know what love is but I never felt it. I tried wanting to be with somebody but never felt romantically in love. When I try to act romantic it feels like I am pretending because I don't feel anything while doing it. I never talk about it in person because I don't want ppl to think I am trying to be edgy or pretend to be broken or some dumb shit but I was just curious on if ppl grow up to be this way or are born this way or if there was something wrong with me

      I felt the 'zing' of love a couple times when I was younger. I have always been a very conflicted 'what if' person, and what love felt like was a markedly different state where my head and heart , everything really, was in agreement about wanting and fitting with this person. ( it may not have been true, but it felt it) It was so liberating to feel that 'certainty '. He was spookily similar to me, so I think that did it.
      Since then I haven't felt that way. I've been in relationships and had dates, but even when with some good people , the 'love ' , the profound certainty has not happened. I've cared what happens to them, but I've not felt that undeniable pull. It almost makes me afraid to start anything with nice people because I'll end up hurting them and losing them because I won't be able to honestly say the 3 little words. I hope it's just a 'wrong person' thing but who knows.

    • @Heatherhigleydrums
      @Heatherhigleydrums Před 3 lety +3

      @Nooobie boii I think if you have felt it once, at least you have a reference...I have a similar issue in that I felt it with an early bf, then never anything so clear since for over 10 years. Frankly I had given up, and thought I'd just have to settle for lesser feelings in future. However recently I have started to feel that sense of love beginning again with someone. It was all very unexpected and he is not your run of the mill person. So there may be hope for you too. Try to recognise if there was some quality or mix of them that your first love had that everyone since did not- that ingredient may be the magic you need in the next person for your brain/ heart chemistry to make it happen. Look for that in a person. Turns out my necessary combo is slightly odd, intelligent, funny people- and it's hard to find. Only they inspire love in me, which feels like a blend of peace and fire - which manifests (at least for me) as a sort of light, full feeling in your chest .

      If you allow me to make a point that may help you to comfort yourself if nothing else. You don't see the real problem because you don't search for it in the right place. The better question would be this: why many people fall in love hopelessly. The issue is not with you, as a 20+ man I can tell from my life experience that peoples almost never really fall in love it is a momentary lie that our hormones and brain creates for us. This is fine because there is a reason for it basically you need this unearthly experience to drive yourself closer and closer to somebody who you think you love. Being in love feels good! So, peoples got addict to it easily and if that happens, you will not care who you love or why or where, you just want to feel this biological lie that makes you happy. Even if you are in a relationship if you are a love addict you won't stop looking for more love because you can never be loved enough... From my experience, many people easily fall in love with almost anyone just to feel this feeling a little more, they basically don't love you, they only want this feeling, but you can't really condemn them because mostly they don't know this themself and even if they do they can't control it. They think they truly love you, yet when you leave them after one week they start to go out with others. As you yourself said with their "weekly crush". I would call this immature behavior the problem of your bad love experience. So the question is what is love? I will tell you my definition. As above mentioned what we call love is the unearthly feeling that is created by mostly hormones. I would not really call this feeling love, because most of the time this feeling will lead to a disastrous relationship that will fall apart. And as in itself is only a tool to let two people get to know each other better, intimately and all. What I would call love, is that rare situation when this "biological love" feeling ends which are bound to happen, and the two people whos for once really able to see each other as they truly are without roses in the background still want to be together... And they still like to be close to each other and like to care for each other and respect each other. Not for some momentary hormonal disorder, but for what they are. For my understanding, this is real love. Not so mystical and enchanted as in books but at least true. Have a good day.

  • @littleswallow7258
    @littleswallow7258 Před 3 lety +117

    1. Your notion of love is idealized
    2. You have low self-esteem
    3. Fear of intimacy
    4. Fear of abandonment
    5. You're co-dependent
    6. You've experienced childhood abuse
    7. Addictive behaviors
    8. Perfectionism
    9. Personality disorders, e.g. BPD
    It hurts to learn you fit 6-7 of these things. I've always fled all opportunities of being in a relationship because they terrify me more than they bring reassurance. At the beginning of a potential relationship it feels great and exciting but soon it becomes overwhelming, burdensome and I want nothing else than flee away from the other person

    I don’t think I’m capable of falling in love. I never get crushes, and haven’t ever dated anyone. I also have no interest in sex what so ever despite being nearly 16. I just feel like everyone will dissapoint me and nobody really gets me (I’m autistic). I do WANT to fall in love and spend my life with someone and I’m really lonely, but I just don’t seem to be able to form true connections with anyone.
    On the subject of the video, I have a mood disorder, low self esteem, am definitely a person looking for a ‘perfect partner’, am afraid of abandonment and I always push people away.
    I know I’m pretty young, but I’ve already pretty much written off the idea of a relationship in my life.

    When i was in highschool i had my first boyfriend and we were nearly one and half year in a relationships but the truth is i never genuinely loved him or cared for him so thats why i left him because i was more afraid of myself if i just hurt him even more in future so till now i haven't been in any relationship its just that im not capable of loving someone truly

    when I said I don't have anyone that I attracted to or like to be my partner , my friends thought I was heart broken, I afraid they call me edgy so I stop telling them I cant fall in love right now and just say I have crush instead but even I don't know why I don't have any love interest, even crush.I guess there are some small percentage of human fall to this pattern but hey ..we are more independent.

    I often think about my first boyfriend in primary school because I have the feeling that was when I loved the most. When he broke up with me I didn't even cry or something and behind that we were just friends. There wasn't really anything to move on from. These last two years I often think about him just for filling the void of not being in love for such a long time. (I haven't seen him in 7 years so it's not like I fell in love with him because we are friends or something)

    I myself have never been in a romantic or sexual relationship, and even though I am comfortable with myself and my gender identity I'm having a very hard time finding out what my sexuality actually is- since I have never really fallen in love yet, or I just don't know what it feels like to fall in love. I always ask my friends (who have all had crushes in me at least once ) what it feels like to fall in love? But I never understand what they mean.. I'm not sure what to do, if it's even something I should worry about at all.

    So one day his brother asked me if i liked someone and i said you promise not to tell anyone? He said yes then i said its your brother. What i didnt know is that both of them had feelings for me, and he told his mom while i was talking to his brother and we were happy that finally we got our feelings out. The she told my dad... i never saw them again. After some years when i remember him i would cry and all that. I feel thats the only time i was in love.. and now soooo many years passed and i still cant forget him..

    Hey there. I feel like i cant fall in love and would like to read your ideas. My first love and boyfriend let me know after 1,5 years of relationship that he never loved me and I still didnt break up with him because i felt like he was my only friend. I broke up a few months after, because he moved away and didnt talk to me or text me for days. I loved him more than anything, i would have done anything for him and would have even died for him. And now, maybe 2 years after this, it makes me laugh in a bitter way about myself about how incredibly dumb i was. Every couple i see, ever romantic movie makes me laugh in this bitter way. I can't love others deeply enough anymore, i feel like this first love broke me and I dont want to heal out of fear, that I will be hurt again

    All those reasons overlap with one another. I could identify with most of them. I mean it stands to reason that if your parents find you difficult and struggle to love you then you are hardly likely to develop into an adult with high self esteem. If you have low self esteem you are going to be examining how others are toward you and unless they are overtly giving signs of favouring your company you are going to have endless doubts. On and on it goes.

      If you are a woman you are not supposed to give your heart based on sweet talk, you need to see his actions that show he’s able to sacrifice for you, to risk for you, to do helpful actions for you. Someone with character. You are aiming for a husband who can support you and your offspring.

    and now it’s so weird. i keep asking myself if i was really in love with him because i don’t have that feeling anymore and now i feel like i wasn’t actually in love but deep down i know i was. it’s so confusing. and i‘m currently talking to a guy who‘s literally perfect like he‘s pretty, kind and caring but i just cant catch feelings and it’s annoying me. i‘m trying so hard and i think that’s the problem but how do i stop trying? i feel like something’s wrong with me bc like who doesn’t fall in love with someone who‘s literally perfect?? i also thought that maybe i‘m into girls but that wouldn’t make sense bc i just don’t feel attracted to them and especially couldn’t catch feelings for them. i just want to fall in love with him but i‘m forcing myself so hard and i hate it. i hateee it why doesn‘t it just happen??

      That’s not love it’s obsession he became a coping mechanism for u, ur new addiction to distract from reality. U want attention from him bc if he’s so perfect and if he loves you doesn’t that make you feel good? If someone so good thinks your good, it will make you feel worthy of love and affection but the problem is now you can’t let go of him bc it will take away any validation you’ve received from him. You wanna feel loved so you’re holding on to whatever you can instead of waiting for someone you actually like and you don’t really know who you like bc you mix up getting butterflies with the Thrill of another person giving you attention validating your existence but tell me if I’m wrong..
