I’ve been feeling like I’m just too much for people. Too sensitive, too clingy, too emotional. I overthink everything, and I care so deeply it hurts. And no matter how hard I try to be “less,” it still feels like I’m the one who’s always left behind.
I don’t want to change who I am, but it’s exhausting feeling like I have to shrink myself just to be loved. I’m tired of being the one who feels everything while everyone else just moves on.
I don’t know… am I really that hard to love?

No. You are easy to love. You just haven’t learned how to give love yet
You’re not too much, they’re just not enough. Love should meet your depth, not ask you to drown it; never shrink for someone who can’t swim in your storm.
You just have to find someone who will meet the depth of your care or learn to compromise on certain things. I know I feel this way sometimes and it’s not wrong to think you’re hard to love, but in the end it comes down to the other person and your satisfaction. The right person will accept you as you are and provide the love and attention you crave.
wow i totally feel you. tbh, i was like you so heres what i’ll tell you: whoever it is that causes you to feel like that isn’t someone that fits with who you are, and they aren’t someone you should dear in your life.
and why is this important? because your self worth and self image is important. especially in close relationships. why should you subject yourself to constant worry when there are more compatable and more caring people out there. the important part i guess i’m trying to get at is to choose who you care about and its okay to stop letting in people in your life who make you worry about who you truly are. love yourself and most things will fall into place <3 you are completely lovable and it seems that you aren’t being validated on your feelings by those you’ve surrounded yourself with, but thats totally changable! what some don’t understand is how beautiful people like you are, because how deep your love can be, how endearing your energy is. change those around you, not yourself.
love,
a stranger like you <3
