Whoa CDaddy. You're a rather cold unromantic fish, but interestingly Im in your boat. I understand what you're saying. I dont even know how to go about loving myself, I leave that to others if they will. I look to love others in whatever way they need or I see, be that cleaning blood off of them or kissing them deeply. Its a selflessness. Its just recently that actual romantic acts have come into my life and I love them, but sometimes I find that I really do physically go weak in the knees and have trouble finding words to speak. Its an odd phenom - sort of like a fainting goat - and when I wake up I wonder what happened and its sort of uncomfortable. Its when I can do something for someone else in a loving manner when I feel most capable and love myself the most.
