Maybe I'm not actually as terrible of a person as I keep convincing myself and others that I am.
I'm starting to wonder if the problem is that I just really wish I was terrible.

yep. that is it. you have a tough shell and put up a strong facade so people don't get too close. fear of getting hurt. that comes from your hard upbringing...

@akindheart Well...no, actually, not at all. I'm not afraid of getting hurt. In fact, a big problem for me is that I don't get hurt even when I should. What I'm afraid of is hurting others, because I've done it repeatedly despite my best efforts not to.
Most of my relationships have failed because my partner thinks I don't care about them since...nothing really ever hurts me, like at all, and they think that I consider them to be unimportant or not close to me.
