Is it normal to need to be loved to experience happiness?

Im gay and every time I am lying in my bed at night I just feel that something is missing from my life and the last time that I have never been truly happy. I am not suicidal, but I am not happy either.

    I know what you are missing and what would make you happy. It's about seven inches long, two inches wide and buff colored.

    Damn, I am adroginistic meaning i was born looking gay.. with feminine facial appearance, but yet i am a straight guy. I hate that I was born looking like the type your people would like. It kills me that i even have to live, with people making false accusations towards me. I think being gay is not normal at all and does not make sense at all. You don't see male lions in the plains doin it, so wtf. Dude get your self a gf while you look like a normal guy and live a normal life like a normal person.. On the other Hand i will be lonley forever do to the fact i was born a freak of nature.

      Dude, get over yourself! Work with what you've got! A hell of a lot of women go for gay/camp looking guys because they feel safer with them. I've got the opposite problem, I'm a big, muscular bloke with a massive beard... most women are scared shitless of me lol. But I still get laid! Thank fuck some women like the big men! lol. Just be confident and work with what you've got, cus you aint gnna get anything else!

    Even if you don't go to a gay bar, just go out! Meet people, find a hobby which you actually enjoy! Do something to make you feel contented, people need to feel whole in themselves before they can ever truly love someone and give themselves to that person completely. Think about it, if you fell in love and were loved by somebody right now, how would you feel if that person were to break your heart? You need to find true happiness on your own two feet!

    Try going to a gay bar? I'm sure allot of guys will want to hit on you which might even lead to a relation ship. Best of luck to you.
