[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 456718, member: 1550"] I can relate a little bit. I can walk away from somebody (and have) and never look back. This was actually much more common when I was younger. However, I always have had very strong feelings, good and bad, about my family. No apathy there. I am also a loner and have self-diagnosed myself with borderline. My therapist of over ten years says "traits only" because I have had long term relationships. However, basically I am a loner too. For me, sometimes I feel nothing when I'm supposed to feel something. When my dear grandmother passed away, I was 37 years old and we had always been extremely close. I could not get myself to feel sad or to greive. It was the weirdest. I miss her to this day, but never grieved for her and never felt the amount of pain at losing her that I should have felt. I just decided I'm a little quirky about certain things and I accept myself, including my sometimes inappropriate apathy toward serious events. Many people have let me down in my life...I am 80% better than I used to be in every way...but sometimes, maybe because I'd been let down by those who should have cared for me the most, I can't muster up the emotion others do. I guess I just want to say...I understand. Hugggggz!!! [/QUOTE]
