Is it normal that i don't love anyone?

I mean I guess I love my family, but probably wouldn't cry too much if they were to die in some crazy freak accident. I could live without ever seeing them again. I know it sounds bad, but I'm serious. Friends, I really could care less about, half the time I'm listening to there stories and I really could care less about the things they are telling me, and usually zone out. With guys I'm really trying, but I really don't feel anything either. I wasn't always like this, and I would have to say that it started maybe 8 months ago, nothing life-changing happened then, I'm just trying to see if it's just a phase...maybe...hopefully. I know I'm not depressed,I'm actually happy with where I am in life(except for the whole cold-hearted b*tch thing unfortunately) and no I am not optimistic or pessimistic(spell check). I dont know if I might be a realist, I do tend to analyze things, and prioritize. I'm also not selfish, I help whenever and however I can, but I feel like it's all just superficial on my part.

  • Despite feeling this way at the moment, I think that if one of those "loved" ones really did die tomorrow, it would affect you deeply and you would care. Your love is evident in your story, even if you're unable to see it.

    Death is so permanent. Fearing the death of loved ones is about looking to the future and all of the wonderful or horrible experiences ahead of you, then knowing that you'll never ever be able to share any of it with those people if they are dead.

    Don't give yourself labels like "cold-hearted bitch" because you are not. That's not fair to you. Be fair to yourself and you can be fair to others. :)

    Could(n't) care less. I'm the same, I've only ever really cared for 2 people. I try and keep it a secret because it's not really what people like friends and family want to hear.

      yeah...i would never tell them. I feel like I WANT TO love my friends and family, and cry and fall in love with guy,but it's not happening. do you think i should see a psychiatrist to understand what is the underlying cause of this? lol what do/did you do?

        I cannot cry either. I did love my first girlfriend and she did know how I felt about everyone else and she accepted it about me. I just don't have any compassion for any situaution or person on this planet. I like to think I became like this when I realised back in college that everything that happens is pointless but in truth I think I have been like this all my life. People get upset about stories they hear on the news and I just think do you really fucking care about a bunch of people dying you don't know and how exactly is that going to affect your life. I would feel the same if my family were killed, what would be the point in crying or feeling upset about it, life goes on.
