I made it two paragraphs in, you need to talk to someone about your emotions.

You may think that you're not showing this negativity and sadness on the surface, but I can guarantee your potential partners are picking up on it immediately.

You can't build a successful relationship without starting from a good place. You're starting from a bad place with negative expectations each time.

Until you address the only constant (your emotions and negative self-image) in this cycle of rejection as you call it, you'll never succeed in a relationship.

Thank you for your input ^^

I'm usually a lot more positive but sometimes things happen (usually stress related) that emotionally stir up those kinds of emotions in me. I have consulted professional help and I am thinking about taking the time to do so again.

As mentioned in my second last paragraph I am feeling extremely fine usually, because apart from that I cannot really complain.

I usually try not to think about it and see the positives like not having to deal with a break up during exam time or something. But this is also why I sometimes feel even more conflicted because I know that it's just not the right time for lovesickness.
