    I am love deficient. Not that I am demanding that people should love me for no reason. Just that I wish I feel loved a tiny bit. I know that the fault is most probably with me too.

    Edit: I feel like I am stuck in a loop, I feel self-pity because I don’t feel loved. I am probably not loved because I feel self-pity. Breaking the cycle is hard.

      A pet can be a good bridge out of that cycle. Otherwise it takes a bit of a leap of faith (still doable but difficult).

      The fact that you've identified the cycle is very good, though. A lot of people never realize that self-pity is contributing to their loneliness.
