Greetings,
Recently, something has been troubling me, and I wasn’t sure who I could talk to about it. Then I thought who better than you to ask for guidance? I also feel that this issue is something many people struggle with, and the solutions you suggest might help them as well.
I am grateful for my life. I do well in my university studies and have a good relationship with the gods. Although I am introverted and enjoy solitude, the absence of love bothers me. The gods always advise me to learn to live with loneliness (in a positive sense) and not become dependent, and I know this is for my own good, especially since I want to go to another country for further studies and will be far from my friends and family.
I am not straight, and where I live, this is forbidden, which makes me feel even lonelier. Some time ago, I told Lady Astarte that I felt lonely, and a few days later I met someone on X (Twitter). I even painted his face and sent it to him, and he was happy. But well, he’s just an internet friend; it’s unlikely that our connection will become truly platonic or meaningful, and that bothers me. He never realizes whether I’m sad or happy, and I don’t think he even cares. I both enjoy being alone and suffer from it. I feel the absence of love, yet at the same time, I despise it.
I’ve met other people too, both at university and online and I’ve wanted to have a close relationship with them, but it seems impossible. Although I’m somewhat popular, at best they only see me as an ordinary friend. Could you please help me figure out how to overcome emotional dependency?
Thank you
