Why does gooey emotional shit make me so uncomfortable?
it all seems unreasonable
Because you're just not that kind of person who wants any relationship like that apparently
Because nobody broke your heart.

Probably because you were never subjected to any "healthy" degree of emotional pain/trauma.
If that is the case, you're uncomfortable because it's unfamiliar and new to you. And just as it's more difficult to develop social skills the older you are, it becomes harder to relate and feel empathy for that kind of stuff the longer you go without having ever experienced it.

you can do what you want to whenever you want to
though it doesn't mean a thing

You telling yourself that is exactly why you are uncomfortable with emotional shit. You distance and disconnect yourself from it by avoiding holding any emotional value in the things that happen to you or in the way you act towards others. You sound like someone who doesn't act on anything and values little because you tell yourself it's all meaningless.
Of course, I don't know you, so you could claim everything I'm saying is bullshit.

Well, it IS unreasonable. That's why it's called emotional. Your mistake isn't in thinking it's unreasonable; your mistake is thinking that because it's unreasonable, it must therefore be somehow wrong.

I appreciate the effort.
You may be right, but I'm a life-affirm type of person. Although my actions can state otherwise. I'll fix it.

may be right. It makes me uncomfortable since I've never had to deal with it. I just have a hard time empathizing.
I don't feel very close to people.
I can't understand when they try to open up to me, I don't see why they keep dwelling on the bad. Maybe I view it as over-bearing.

you're right, not everything is about being beyond emotion.
Ironically most of our actions are propelled through a nuanced feeling.
But I can't get behind the whole thing of we're all in pain or it's beautiful or the gooey I love yous and I can't say why
I'm partially afraid that if I continue with this perception, I'll be too removed from others. But it may not be a bad thing.
