This goes out to everyone feeling lonely tonight. You aren't alone in that feeling. I'm sending you my gentle hugs, and expecting nothing in return. I think I'm too messed up in every way to ever be loved but I hope for better for you.

Hugs to you sorryshaped. I am lonely tonight because my H is working and kids are at my Dads house. I doubt you are too messed up to be loved though. I dont deserve the love I get but I still get it and I hope the same will happen for you

You were married before, weren't you? Even though you're divorced/separated now, and regardless if there is/isn't love connection between you two still, you were at least loved at one point in your life. That's proof you can be loved again.

For what it's worth, you seem like a nice guy with a cool personality.

Even if the absolute worst case happens where you're never loved again (and I doubt that would ever happen!), you still have people on this site who love you and care about you. It's not a romantic love, but it's still love nonetheless.

How kind of you, Sorry Shaped. I am quite lonely tonight (as I usually am). Your thoughtful words are so helpful.

Gentle hugs to you, too.

There are people I love, even some that might not deserve it. But, I don't feel "in love" and it hurts. It's an emptiness, a longing. There is someone who says she loves me romantically, and I've made it clear that I don't feel that way and she's still ok with that. I feel bad that I don't feel the way she wants. I feel guilty and angry with myself for not feeling love in return. But, it is as it is.
Perhaps I should do better, but this is where I am right now. I often feel lonely in a room full of people I know.

"In love" is either there, or its not. There doesn't seem to be a darn thing we can do about it. Please don't feel bad.
