As for me, I don't know. I've really never knew what Love is, never heard 👂🏼 I Love you, no Hugs 🫂 & with that it's hard for me to except Love or how to Love & I'm scared to Love, Love is a Challenge for me. Love for me was buying ppl things (gifts) I was buying Love, cause the only way I knew ppl would Love me.

I am also guilty of buying things for someone who I thought loved me and I learned that lesson. No one gets what I go through every day, it's hard to get up and get going. I don't want to do anything but I need to or I don't have food or money to pay bills. I have not 1 friend, I don't have any coworkers as I do what I can myself. It gets very lonely especially around the holidays and it only gets harder day after day, month after months, year after year. I don't know how much longer I can keep doing this as I am so very tired of everything.

Love means to me to be happy and not lonely

@A MyDepressionTeam Member, Idk what amp means, I was trying to figure that out myself & it's like it's always there when you be asking questions ❓& it pops up @ the end of you question ❓, so me don't know what it it is

@A MyDepressionTeam Member Right & that's the way I feel when I was buying things for ppl (Love) & come to find out the was using me all the time & the keep expecting for you to keep giving them things & don't give you nothing in return, Sad 😢😢, real Sad 😢😢

Love to me is a kind word when you know someone is hurting or down. Sometimes love is lending a listening ear or a big hug until the person feels better.

Love has been nothing but pain for me. I can't find it and at this point I have given up on trying to find it. My cat is the only thing that loves me and I am ok with that.

That's how my last girlfriend made me feel. That's a big part of why I was so devastated by the break up. Nobody made me feel the way she did. I never felt that loved in my life
