Is it normal that i'm not sure if i can love again?
Well, as this poll suggests, I'm not sure if I can ever love another human being again. As the story usually goes, I had a lover, he broke my heart, etc., sob story, etc.
If it matters, I'm female. Age will not be given.
I'm currently dating a woman. In past relationships, I usually come to resent my partner out of lack of attraction to them. But, I believe I might actually feel some level of affection for this woman.
Usually when I broke up with someone, or am broken up with, I feel nothing. Just a hollow, empty sort of feeling. It's different with her. The thought of losing her makes me dreadfully anxious. When I kiss her, it feels right. I'm not sure if I can do this all again. How do I deal with this? I'm also not comfortable with most sexual things, considering the taking of my virginity was not consensual. Any advice?
