Why can't I fall in love?

Question - (28 October 2008) 1 Answers - (Newest, 28 October 2008)
A female United States age 30-35, anonymous writes:

I've never had the fluttery, giddy feelings you get when you love someone, or even just crush on them. Ever.

Which is strange because I think the thing I crave the most right now is a serious relationship. I WANT someone to love me, but also to be able to love in return, but I can't ever find that 'spark,' with ANY boy I've What's wrong with me? I feel like I'm emotional dysfunctional or something.

A guy asked me out last year, and I said no because that spark was missing. The same happened again this year, and I am so so so tempted to tell him yes, but once again that feeling of giddy attraction isn't there. This current guy is very nice, treats girls nicely, and is quite touchy-feely, which is something I want so much. Should I give it a try and hope I fall in love with him eventually, and possibly risk landing myself in a sticky situation later in which I don't love him but don't want to hurt him with a breakup?

Kawika agony auntYup...you gotta have that giddy feeling or else whats the use. But remember love does not always come with a bolt of lightning...sometimes love comes softly.

"Love is like a butterfly. The more you pursue it, the more it eludes you. But, if you remain calm and still it will land on your shoulder."

Don't be afraid to give things a chance. You may never know if you don't give it a try. My greatest fear has always been living in a world of regrets. I would rather try and fail, than to fail to try. That's my take on it.
