I don't feel any anything when something horrible happens to people I care about. I'm getting worried for myself.
Today, my mother had to go to the hospital because she had a small stroke (never had one before). When I got told, I just said "Oh shit!" and, because if I didnt my dad would think I'm uncaring, I said "is she OK". I then poured myself a drink and went to my room.
Awhile ago, when I heard that my sister was raped (she's not a Stacy so it should be sad), I didnt feel anything. Sure, I wish it didnt happen, but nothing happened emotionally inside.
Very close family friend died. At her funeral, heaps of people came. She was a really nice lady. I was the only one not to cry, I heard a few older people say it was the saddest thing they've ever been to.
I heard my Aunt was very depressed. Felt nothing. Uncle had a heart attack. Felt nothing.
What's wrong with me, /r9k/? I'm not trying to be edgy, before any of you say that.
Surely others on this board are like this.

It might be that these things won't effect you in an immediate way but on more long-term, deeper level.
>>24446340
i'm like you, they do affect you but your not some emotional faggot so you don't scream and cry.
Like if you had the chance to crush that rapists balls would you? (if you truly feel nothing you shouldn't care what he did)
>>24446375
like this anon said. I used to think i was a schizoid due to the my lack of emotions (particularly empathy, i knew i should feel sad and show concern so i do but it's not natural)
Stuff like that doesn't affect me on the outer-level, but definitely much deeper. It's been a few years, and I'm still not over my aunt's death. There's no expression on my face, or change in my voice, but the pain is always there, quiet.
>>24446340
pretty much the same as this
anyone want to explain this?
edginess, mental illness or something?
Do you have the 'bergers anon?
>>24446740
Lack of emotional bond
>>24446556
I do fantasise about finding him and beating him to death with a metal baseball bat, yes. Always picture a metal baseball bat for some reason
>>24446770
No, I'd say I'm a cyborg. I can easily pass as normal
>>24446340
you might be a sociopath OP. Sorry..
>>24446787
>doesnt give a fuck if sister is raped or mom has a stroke
>"I can easily pass as normal"
Please be a troll
>>24446815
I mean to everyone that I'd meet they'd think Im a normal dude
It's not like, once I meet someone I just say, "I felt nothing when my sister was raped"
>>24446815
He clearly does give a fuck though
If he didn't he wouldn't have made this thread
>>24446340
you're just edgy kid like shadow the hedgehog psht nothing personal kid memento mori remember to die. I think you just have good sense of reality and understand that the lives of human beings are worth the same as a dog or an ant. the only difference it's just "close to you"
>>24446784
even if it's a bit vague I think it makes some sense
what do you mean by emotional bond exactly?
>>24446859
he gives a fuck about himself and wants to know if he's ok up there
>>24446340
Repression is actually a very common reaction to stress and psychological trauma. If you didn't care, you wouldn't have made a thread, which indicates that you've ruminated on this subject, at least long enough to wonder what people have to say about it. You're not unfeeling, you're stuffing your feelings down, and one day they're going to come out.
OP please stop trying to self insert as Bateman you edgelord fuck
>>24446903
But he also said he wants to find the rapist and beat him with a baseball bat. That's a quite clear sign of deep-seated anger
>>24446938
missed that then I guess, fair enough senpaimaybe he wants to deal out some justice? I'm trying to think how I would think in his situation to get inside his head
>>24446937
I agree, though Bateman was uncaring he was a psychopath and a murderer and I doubt that applies to you
>>24446907
It's hard to talk about this without sounding like a edgelord "no feelings" mcgee, but I just dont see it. These things didnt effect me when they happened, why would I suddenly start caring in the future?
>>24446938
I think (honestly, not sure) that I just want to do that because that is what I feel I should feel like. Wanting to kill your sister's rapist is something you're supposed to feel, so I just put those thoughts into my head. It's not something that I thought naturally; it's more, "this is how I'm supposed to think, so I think this way". It's hard to describe, I've always been shit at describing my thoughts
>>24447028
Just admit that you care ffs, why are you so desperately trying to hide the fact that you're upset for your sister?
You're being cringey as fuck right now it's hard to read. YOu literally do think you're Bateman don't you?
>I have all the characteristics of a human being: blood, flesh, skin, hair; but not a single, clear, identifiable emotion
>Bateman in the OP
>no one got dubs
>>24447261
what about these dubs?
>>24447215
Shit, sorry for opening up.
>>24447300
You should feel bad. Stop being so fucking autistic
checker these dubs
>>24447300
Don't sweat it pal, at least you got dubs
