i know i am just a stranger to you, but i care for you. you are not alone. i am also confused about my sexuality. i cannot tell if i am heterosexual or asexual. all of the guys i have come across have always sexually harassed me and attempted to manipulate me into going out with them. like you, i also do not think i am enough for my parents. we crave validation, but aren’t met with it even when we try to excel in school. allow me to say this, even though your parents may not appear to be proud, i am extremely proud of you. you have come so far. you are so strong. i also have the whole political situation in my house. it hurts to hear a family member agree with such horrid ideas. my mother and father are trump supporters, whereas my sister and i are not. my parents are always constantly yelling at the tv. it gets so loud. whenever my sister and i express our side, we get shot down immediately and tension grows. we can all get through this together.
What do you think about feelings?
-
Do we need them? Do they hold us back? Do they make us do stupid things? Are they the only thing that keeps us going as a society? What do you think?

@Merlin-James feelings are weird. I don’t recommend it, but they happen. Can you specific in what you are talking about.
-
Feelings are only relevant when there are people out there to acknowledge and reciprocate them. Otherwise they aren't valued and are burdening.

@Merlin-James Feelings are messages from yourself to your higher self .. we react to anything based on how we feel about it . Yet knowladge is the fuel to thier growth ,and everything we do in our lives is motivated by feelings ... Still so much to say on this topic 😁 but Imma stop here .

with no feelings , we will become living dead bodies. (Zombieeee)

sometimes they hold us back but depending upon the strength of your will power even negative feelings can motivate you to do something great.
3)well in a society we always want peace and humbleness but, with no feelings people will stop caring about each other and there will be no unity among people due to which societies will break.

@Kyle-Norwood just talking in general. Nothing specific

For some reason your post reminded me of a book I read called "Who Moved My Cheese". In it the Author asks.... "what would you do if you were not afraid?" Its true if you think of it in a positive way. If you had no feeling of fear you would do new things a lot, and change can be good. BUT in a way fear can also keep you safe by not doing something stupid and getting hurt or even killed. SO yes feelings can hold you back but sometimes that can be a good thing.
sorry wall of text lol
