As the tittle says I repress my feelings but only towards people i like. I mean lets say i have feelings for someone, beyond that of friendship, i try to repress them. My plan is just to make my feelings for them go back to the level of friendship and nothing more. So is it normal or am i weird?
Normal only if you think you don't have a shot. But otherwise, make a move on your feelings and your DREAMS CAN COME TRUEEEE
The thing is i don't want to like someone. My feelings don't get stronger because i don't act on them. I find emotions to be a waste of time. In all honesty i don't want to feel. Oh, and for the record I am not depressed nor suicidal. I would just rather focus on succeeding in life than emotions. Is that odd?
If I fancy someone who is a friend I usually try my best to hide it. I don't know quite why, maybe I'm afraid that the friendship would be ruined if they knew.
As a result I am 18 and have never had a girlfriend and I have watched numerous times as my best friends dated the girls I liked.
So I think its normal but not recommended to hide your feeling all the time.
It may be normal depends really has in do you do that everytime or you only do it because of circumstances?
But prolly you do it because you are afraid so yeah while it is normal it is not beneficial ...
Why are you so set on repressing your feelings? Are you embarrassed that you feel the way you do? Do you think you don't have shot?
With my past experiences of "feelings" going further then a friendship for others, I've come to the realization that, the more I try to hold my feelings back, the stronger they get.
The more you resist the more they will persist. Remember that. Also, nobody can realy help the way they feel, they just do. Sometimes it's out of your control.
