I’m so god damn lonely, a pretty girl could say the slightest compliment and I would fall head over heels. The next day, they would treat me like a sack of shit and it would break my heart and shatter my self esteem. I’m so fragile its pathetic. It’s not just for girls though. I could meet a new friend, and it seemed like they really understood me and for a few weeks, it feels like I’m not alone. Turns out the feelings weren’t mutual and they cast you aside, and all of a sudden we’re strangers again.
Does anyone have any tips on how to get over this? I’m so fucking tired of caring and worrying over someone who doesn’t give the slightest thought about me.

It’s tough, but not a bad thing. These are the emotions that prove you are alive, and that the world hasn’t sucked all the fight out of you yet. Imagine if a pretty girl treats you like a sack of sht and you don’t feel anything…I wouldn’t want that. I’d want to feel pain in that case.
Doesn’t mean you need to try and impress those you like, or those that treat you well.
This was very helpful, thank you
I am the same way and its so hard to deal with. I wish i knew how to turn it off too things would be so much easier. All it means is you have a really big heart and eventually you will find people who care as deeply as you do.
I feel the same way, I’ve been hurt so many times by the words actions and inactions of friends, coworkers, past lovers and family that I’ve constructed my life in such a way that I have limited contact with ppl. I’ve pushed everyone that has ever hurt me away. It got so bad that I began pushing new ppl away before they could get a chance to make me feel like sh*t. The result? One very lonely night hawk. But at least you are still trying to connect with people, and I admire you for that.
Thanks, it feels good knowing I’m not the only one
I fall so easily for the wrong ones and then when they treat me like shit I go in here and find people who are going through the same things. You are not alone, and we definitely deserve better.
