I'm well aware that i am a trash bag

I broke it off with a gentleman I've been seeing. He's been so kind to me in so many ways. But I felt like I needed more. More texts. More of his time.... He said he's more introverted and I'm an extrovert. We were fine with only seeing eachother on the weekends and then I caught feelings. To a certain extent, I felt that he felt the same way about me. His actions showed he cared but his words didn't match up. I understand that people show feelings differently, but I rely on verbal confirmation, assuming people are honest. I'm terribly broken over it. I suppose I just didn't see a literal "future", marriage, big family, blah blah. So to me, why continue to see one another if he doesn't actually see me that way? But I also understand that's a lot to ask from someone. I knew that what we had going was going to end at some point. But I didn't expect it to hurt so bad.

    Actions speak louder than words.

    Why did you break up with him if you love him, and his actions show that he cares?

    These things happen, it's not the end of the world. At least ya'll were honest with one another.

    You were incompatible.
    I am introverted too, however I absolutely wouldn't want to see my partner only on the weekends. I can understand the verbal thing though. I don't like talking about how I feel, it's uncomfortable and I only do it if absolutely necessary instead I show affection physically and with my actions and I prefer the same from my partner. I dated the opposite of your man once, who said all the right things but his actions showed he meant the opposite of it all by never putting in effort. That also taught me that words are pretty empty anyway, actions are the real honesty but that's just me.
    Anyway, we introverts don't have a constant desire to dissect every little thing.
    So no you're not a "trash bag". You can't force yourself to be comfortable in a relationship if you're not. Find someone more similar to yourself instead, who can meet your needs. I've met people who didn't get how much I cared for them because I didn't constantly reassure them with words, that was their loss but also not because they obviously needed reassurement and hopefully found it from someone else. That's how it is, everyone is different.
