"I'm happy when I'm with you" is a sweet confession but for me this is the most painful one. Just think about how dependent you are. That how helpless you are in love that you can't even stay happy in your own company. Love is an important need of human life i know, but that anxiety, helplessness and dependency, which lead to loneliness and unhappiness, make it hard for me to love someone. It scares me more than anything.

"Romantic obsession is my first language. I live in a world of fantasies, infatuation and love poems. Sometimes I wonder if the yearning I've felt for others was more of a yearning for yearning itself. I've pined insatiably and repeatedly: for strangers, new lovers, unrequited flames. While the subjects changed, that feeling always remained. Perhaps, then, I have not been so infatuated with the people themselves, but with the act of longing."

-Melissa Broder, from "Life without Longing," The New York Times
