The loveless man




Some people say that I'm cold, that I always look sad or angry even when I'm not, and that I'm not very social... Well... They are right, I am cold. I am the man born without the ability for love.

Love, I can't feel it, not for lovers, not for friends, hardly even for family.

All my friendships are based on either respect or lies.
Respect for something about them, doesn't have to be something very specific, just something.
Lies because while I can't feel love, I can feel lonely.

What is love, how do you feel it?

Actually I know what love is. Love for me is the opposite of what some religions teaches you.
I love many "things".
I love art in all its forms. I love creating it, and I love consuming it.

But I can't love people.

People are friendly, I smile. But there is nothing behind that smile. Just the scared thoughts of forever being alone.

Some people say that I'm cold... And they are right.
