For most of my life, I have been the type of person who has been afraid of showing or accepting affection from anyone, even close family and friends. Not that I have any specific memories from the past that I remember, but I have always felt that if I show my affection, I'll be put down and they won't feel the same way. Then, whenever someone else gives me affection, I always feel that they are lying to me to make me feel better, which makes me feel worse than I did in the past.
Because of this, especially in the past few months, I have had a deep pit in my heart, something that wants some love. I've heard over and over again that God's love is all we need, and I've been really praying that He could fill me up more, so that I could feel whole again, but it doesn't seem to work. I still feel a lot of emptiness inside of me, a loneliness that makes me almost crave attention. What I really need right now is some Bible verses that could help me out, or perhaps some advice as to what could help me feel better.
