Re: Confessions thread

[(Anonymous)]

I'm the same way, OP, though in my case I think it may be at least partially to do with childhood trauma. I have a hard time feeling connected to people, even when I'm with them, though more so when they're not around. It's not that I'm a misanthrope, either, it's just that my default setting seems to be indifference and disconnection.

I don't actually think there's anything wrong with being this way, and it's probably more common than it seems. I mean, a lot of people who say they care a lot about the people in their lives will turn around and behave in ways that seem pretty uncaring, so it's not always easy to gauge what's really going on in people's hearts/heads.

However, one thing I will say is that, in my experience, it's worth making the effort to try to feel more connected to people. It's worth making the effort to try to care more deeply and more enduringly, especially as one gets older and friendships become more difficult to establish and maintain.

It can be sort of a fake-it-till-you-make-it situation, where you just have to go through the motions (as genuinely as possible) until you start to kind of absorb some of that into yourself for real.
