I Am Lonely

I opened up my world to a man whom I thought cared about me. I shared everything about myself. I told him about how most of my weekends are spent at home and about my strained relationship with my mom (who has kind of cut me out of her life). This is a tiny sample of information.

Months later - he calls me “pathetic” and picks on me on and off about my mom. Pathetic - because I do not go out much on weekends. He also likes to guilt-trip me about my mom. He says I do not care about my parents - what does he know :(. My dad means the world to me.

How many of you’ll have experienced this? Being humiliated after sharing everything from A to Z about yourself.

I have gone into a shell off late and I’m afraid of falling in love again.

This has happened to me, but I refuse to be humiliated.
Rather, I see the entire experience as an indicator I need to do a better job of looking before I leap.

I understand the deal about the fear of falling in love, but if you first fall in love with yourself, you'll have nothing to lose with anyone. AND, it will help you choose who you want to be with.

Good Luck.
