Is it normal that i don't show any emotion towards people

Okay
I'm 19 years of age and I have recently started to see this girl and it's getting serious but there's something that's stoping us it's me.

I can't help it and it bothers me

When ever she tell me something or talk about something sad or happy she says I don't show any emotion at all I don't look like care and that bothers me because I do a lot .

And sometimes after she's ask me or told me something I just look at her with silence, and I feel like I can't say anything to make her feel better or you's the right words

I'm worried that I won't be able to solve the reason why I do this, I get upset with my self when it happens

And one more thing I find it extremely hard to open up to her . Evan thou she's the only person I talk to about anything and everything,
I stay in my room alone all day everyday all buy my self and don't speak to anyone ,,, so can anyone please like to me on what could have caused this what's wrong for anything that will help me .

    Oded here, hmmm, this one is interesting in the way of drawing back from people. Perhaps something had happened in a past path you have walked. Something tragic, or something bad amongst yourself at a repetitive rate that causes you to put your guards at high. I could be wrong however the above mentioned is the most commonly heard causes for this type of behavior. Which now we have the current time problem to over-forsee. You can explain to this significant other about your feelings toward her how you do not show it on the outside but you do care. That is the take off point toward the first step. It will be a challenge at first to speak the things you have described above but it will become easier over time. The brain can infact be programmed. You are the best help you can get kid. Just say what you feel to her. She upset? You said already you feel for her. Put together words from those feelings. Tell yourself "just fucking do it. Fucking speak" and give her kind words. If you find yourself at a struggle in doing so, a simple hug and hold her close will be enough sometimes better. Getting into action speaks louder than word of things there. Just let your guard down and open up. Hard at first however easier over time. The first step to getting better is admitting the problem. But in the end kid, you are the cure. You gotta work toward it. But one last thing, you have the ability. If you didn't, I then wouldn't have your post to reply to. Remember, knowledge is the ultimate power. Harness it and conquer. Best of luck with your path. Any questions, inbox me.

    Oh my god thought this was my boyfriend writing this for a minute! He's being seeing therapists and stuff and he's got multiple personality disorders and sociopath traits or something ... don't worry but if you think it's a good idea go and see a doctor and talk about it anyway because help is out there and if you do think you have a mental illness getting to the bottom of it could be a huge relief for you if that's what your looking for? Don't know how to work this site really but if there's a way to inbox me feel free to if you want to talk!

    Yes but I find I can get angryand jealous really quick and when I do I stay angry for a long time sometimes a hole day over something so small it's pathetic

    It's her problem, not yours. The absence of emotion makes one more logical, tolerable and far less likely to make rash errors of judgment. It's why I strive to become emotionless.

    Emotion leads to confusion, which leads to fear, which leads to anger, which results in pain, destruction and death. Lots of death.

      Oded here, from a professional stand point, half of what you said is correct however lacking correctness in the second half. The emotions lock out I will call it is a forseen phase within people. As we were created with emotions, we show. You cannot sit there and say it's her problem when he is clearly living the life he is in and seeing first hand everything that is going on. He came here seeking help on a self concern. If you wish to advise, then forsee he gets advised on what he is seeking help with. I will say your theory on logic and tolerance sounded good to me. It's just the other things that wasn't relevant to this ordeal. Nothing ill intended, I just need to opinionate on what I have read.

          Oded here, very good observation. As it be true to the fact I do not hold a degree, I am fact a psychologist. I have studied the art for many many years and observed many within many travels I have partaken in. I never pursued it as a profession however show great interest in the human mind. I try my best to avoid too big of words and make my work understandable and easy to follow. I could never forsee myself as a go to my office type person. I am always on the move going to wherever my endeavors shall lead me next. I have great passion in helping people, mainly online but moreover mainly on this website. Call this site my office. That's a short run of my life for your enjoyment.
