Feeling unloved
5 years ago · 1

I am an unhappy person, really like many people I seem happy and I laugh and I smile but when I'm alone I want to crash.. I have a boyfriend who is supportive and kind yet I don't feel like I am lovable so I try to focus on him and what he likes to do I never ask for anything except his time.. Yet when we spend time together I feel like I.. don't know how to describe it like he doesn't love me I do the same with my friends I don't believe they like me when they constantly come up to me and talk to me and joke around with me. I don't feel worth anything. I don't believe suicide is an option for me because I still enjoy doing lots of things but I am really just a miserable person I don't know why I am writing this honestly but I may be because I want someone to know even if they don't know who I am my life is lonely and sad and extremely upsetting I love my boyfriend and my friends I just want to believe that they do back even if they show it I don't feel its real.

Hey "Unloved". I'm sorry to hear that you're feeling this way. I think I get it. Based on everything I've read about attachment trauma (https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=attachment+trauma) seems to point to some of the things you've mentioned. I've suffered (still do, I just manage it better now and It doesn't bother me much at all anymore) from the same and for me, it'd due to some things from my childhood and my early adulthood that I didn't even realize were still following me.
Good luck. Keep seeking knowledge. It's out there. We are humans which means we are super similar beings so just find people that are suffering the same way you are and you'll find answers. People are much more likely to help you if you are real with them.
Nobody knows what you are going through unless you let them in.
