But I didn’t ask for advice. I was showing etv78 that he or she wasn’t alone. And you seem to be stuck on the idea of not being able to “feel” anything, when I already said that “express” was the correct term. I am working on getting past it, but I’m not there yet. I’m in therapy but this thing doesn’t magically go away overnight. I’m still angry about it and I have the right to be. Again, I wasn’t asking for advice, I was just sharing my own experience with etv78.
Thanks, Mom.
I’m in therapy now, working on dealing with this problem (and many others relating to her and my older brother). I hope to get there someday, but it still hurts quite a bit. She was abused by her mother, and I am compassionate about it and understand how that is at the root of her behavior towards me. I love her very much and it’s hard for the emotional part of me to understand. But I hope to get there, it will just take a while.
Bowing out of the thread now.
Pixiesnix-I’m a he. 
Sorry, sir.
Okay, going now…
