Is it normal i think love is stress and a burden?
I have a man who loves me absolutely. But I am realising that I find love a huge stress and burden and am starting to see that I don't want anybody to love and care for me. I feel uncomfortable when anyone buys me a gift or does things for me and if my presence costs them any hard-earned money (e.g giving me lifts (fuel costs), buying me a coffee etc). I feel like a nuisance who is compromising their time and money and if I need anything, it must be causing them problems and making their life difficult.
I feel I just want to be a hermit, living totally detached from the world and having nothing to do with society and nobody loving me or caring about me. Only then can I relax and be me because I am not being a problem to somebody by being in their life.
Does anybody else find love a stress and a burden like this?
