So I started to feel extremely lonely about a month ago. That feeling coincides with falling in love with a person, that is close to me and that person wasn't interested in entering a relationship with me. That alone is something to chew on But that feeling of lack and loneliness stayed even weeks after I talked openly about my feelings for that person. It's not just rejection; it's also that I feel in love for the first time. (I mean violently, past the point of return. I am also a late bloomer.) I desire romantic love now. That is my new need. That article changed my perspective on the matter.
