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?

    congratulations! you found your special someone!

    also, their are people out there who are gay, but don't realise it until later. many may go through a straight relationship but it doesn't feel right to them. now that you found out who you really are, and found that someone who makes you feel this way, its time to celebrate!

    i don't know who you are and I'm nowhere near you, but i will raise a glass in a toast anyways.

    *raises glass* to self-discovery and to new found love!
    cheers.
