Quote: If I feel like I am in love with a man, I have the tendency to have a variety of romantic/sexual feelings towards him. For instance, I might want to wear a sweater that smells of him or I might get a feeling of closeness by touching his hair as I cut it for him. Part of the reason why I used to cry when I was sexually rejected was due to the fact that my H was clearly signaling that he didn't share these kinds of feelings. I am less likely to cry now when I am rejected in part because I have lost or suppressed these types of feelings and I don't know if this is good or bad.
I totally dig this and feel exactly the same way, except in my case, I have also suppressed my sexual feelings. I feel quite at peace and there is fun, affection, and virtually no conflict in my life with my bf these days. And no sex.
