I am assuming you have been sexually liberated since you have a daughter. How long were you in a relationship with the father?
In terms of friends, I too have been going through what you have been going through. My family is "living comfortably" and I started realizing people obsessing over the material items I possessed that I didn't feel like contributed to my character so I slowly started pushing the superficial people out of my life. How I live my life now compared to when I was younger, say around 18, is 100% more mundane. I am keeping a rather low profile and never flaunt about money. Especially in this economy... I'd get taken for a ride every time I went out.
And yes the connection between a man and woman is special, but you're incorporating the chemical emotions that arise from sex, (endorphins, oxytocin, serotonin, dopamine, etc.) into the relationship that could be superficial to start out with. I think you need to realize this aspect of a sexually active relationship and see if its really this that you're missing and not the actual friendship.
Thank you for your answer. I really I appreciate the advice.
I haven't had superficial relationships with men. In the end, we both weren't in love. Our personalities didn't match. Sex has never been an issue.
I have just never found someone I felt compatible with or fallen 'inlove' In retrospect, I was always creating something in my mind, especially if they rejected me, but never with someone I knew well or was close to. Obviously I've never been trully in love if I'm doubting it.
Anyway, my big question is, why am I sad without any serious problems? Is it just loneliness?
You said you were a mother in the original post. I am curious to hear what happened to that relationship. Creating a child with someone can cause alot of psychological damage if the father is no longer with you.
Is it normal my heart feels sad but my life is great
