Today, a guy I met some time ago confessed his feelings for me.
But I can’t feel anything. I kinda feel sad but at the same time I don’t? It’s like, I’m so good at faking emotions that my act makes me believe I feel sad. But I really don’t, inside me there’s just the familiar void.
He thinks I understand him perfectly, but that’s not true. I just listen to what he has to say, and he doesn’t even know me.
What should I do? It’s not even possible for me to have a boyfriend because my parents would get rid of him. And I also don’t want to hurt his feelings because I’m unable to love someone.
I’m so sorry. I’m so so sorry. I didn’t intend things to go like this.

If you don’t love him, don’t go into a relationship with him. In the long run, it will be the best for him. Also, I think you’ll surprise yourself with your statement of not being able to love. Love, in its truest sense, is automatic, uncontrollable, and illogical. It doesn’t care if you think you’re incapable of loving someone. If you meet the right person, it’ll sweep you away. Or more accurately, sweep you towards that person.
Tell him. Nothing hurts more than being lied to and kept on a string. Don’t be mean. Just explain these things to him. He may get upset, but at least he’ll be able to move on.
I did it and yeah, he hates me now. But I feel so relieved and at peace, I feel way much better now. Thank you for your advice!
