No offense to kids, but I'd prefer answers coming from adults, not teenagers / college kids.
Hi, I'm a guy, 26 yrs old, physically healthy and attractive, but mentally f***ed up (depressed).
I've been alone most of my life, except for one relationship, 9 months long, in which I was a slave to her, and got stomped on (BIG SURPRISE).
i'd describe myself as highly shy, emotional, sensitive, passionate, smart, intelligent, attractive. (at least to people who don't know about my depression). i'm anything OTHER THAN the sterotypical macho-wacho, star of high-school kinda guy.
now, here's the problem. there's a continuous conflict between 2 sides of me:
1 - the realistic part of me, which knows that I am strong enough to survive a lifetime in solitude, without love / sex, and that I probably will never have it.
2 - the idealistic part of me, which thinks that I'm good enough to deserve love / sex, and feels that I should have it, that I need it, to carry on with my life. btw, i have an abnormally high and COMPLETELY UNSATISFIED sex drive
this conflict is tearing me apart everyday, and hindering my ability to function normally. i have tons of hobbies, but am unable to enjoy them, because of this problem.
how do i stop this conflict ? adults, please help. thank you
