Mind if i tell you guys a secret?
I don't love my parents. There. I mean they're not toxic or anything either, I just don't feel any attachment towards my family. I don't feel an attachment towards anyone, really. Like the other day, they announced that we were going on a staycation- my sibling was jumping with joy and I was dreading it. And not because of the trip itself, but because of the fact that I have company. I will go as far as to say that if anyone close to me died, I wouldn't care. My nana, whom I had so many childhood memories with and so many fun times with, passed away last year. We couldn't go to the funeral because of covid (it wasn't in our country), and honestly, I was unfazed. I mean- I'm not even an introvert, I don't hate people. So I feel really guilty when I think about these things. I know I'm not the only one who feels this way, so don't be shy, please tell me.
Kinda feels like you lack empathy (I think is the word) but not completely there's not really anything wrong with that and if you wasn't exactly close to your nana I don't know why you'd feel all that bad either I hate my mom and oldest brother but I'm stuck with em but ig it could always be worse reply
wait guys i searched the whole empathy thing up. im pretty sure i feel things, i like to think i understand what people are feeling (when i talk to them) pretty well. but then again, other people's feelings and mine aren't the same. ALSO i don't hate them either, i don't hate anyone. i've had crushes and things. But ill look into it a little bit mo...... 1 reply
No I feel the same way I don't really care about my family or friends in fact why don't can die or something and I don't really feel anything I sometimes do feel guilty about it but I can't really do anything about it even when people die that I don't know or something really bad happened to them I don't feel anything it's just I don't really care reply
There could be countless reasons for that and only professional assistance could help you determine what it really is. From what I've read, that sounds like emotional detachment (inability or unwillingness to connect with other people on an emotional level). It could be your way of coping with things, a phase you're going through, or a way of prote...... reply
Idk man, you might wanna get that checked out. I'm pretty sure there's a name for that, people who lack feeling or empathy. I've heard of it before, but I'm not entirely sure. reply
actually i dont love my parents too but its cuz they are really toxic, sexist, homophobic etc. they have everything bad that you cant even imagine. and for the people around me, all i feel is hate. if i dont feel hate for someone, then i dont feel anything for them. i dont feel love for people. also i dont feel attachment towards anyone too. i can...... 1 reply
it sounds like emotional apathy, but you might wanna do more research about it and start analyzing your emotions more in depth, and how long you've experienced this for reply
It's a taboo but just because you're blood related that doesn't mean that you have to love each other. Just because you don't have an umberable love towards than it doesn't mean that you hate them. I know how you feel, I felt emotionless towards my parents for a long time, now it's a bit better but I wanna move out and be as far as I can of them, i...... reply
