I don't seem to have many feelings for people - 54% Normal

I don't really know how to explain it but I don't have feelings for people. If I do and as soon as they want me they dissapear and I can't stand to be around them. I'm like scared of people, I wont talk to new people and I can't stand meeting up with anyone. If my friends invite me out, I normally say no and stay in.

If anyone shows any affection towards me I freak out, if someone touches me I feel sick and I can't stand kissing anyone.

There's this barrier and I can see it! If someone gets too close I freak and push them away.

I have this horrible empty feeling and I'm sick of not feeling!
Is anyone else like this and have any advice?
Do you think it's normal?

You must live lonely for a little bit time.

In my point of view when I feel i am sick i become sick. if i say i am going to fail this exam,and i studied, i would fail it the next day. But if i believe in my self that i can overcome this situation and try over and over until i accomplish it. First thing you can do is go the parks try to make new friends, play with them,.....

you can do it if you do the opposite if which you think and you think it is RIGHT.!!!

there are people like you but dont worry. its normal. you just need to work on it. it sounds like you have trust issues, and you're basically afraid to get to close. learn to trust, and let them know you have trust issues. it'll take time before you learn to trust someone, but commit to it.

Women can feel this way too, you know. Anyone can feel this way depending on the circumstances they've had their life. It's not gender specific. :P

I do understand to some degree how you feel. My advise is to talk to your doctor. If you can afford it ask them to refer you to someone for counseling and maybe ask them about anxiety medication. Anxiety can cause people to shut down those kinds of feelings. Of course medication won't cure it, but it may help you to take the steps you need to overcome this. It's usually a long process since new habits will need to be developed, but it will be worth it. :)

I wish you lots of luck. :)
