Why are you attempting to do this again?

The Bible. All of it. Don't leave your house until you're finished.

Kierkegaard’s Fear and Trembling is exactly the book you want, but you should realize that love is a holy passion worth engaging in.

I want to escape the responsibility of joy, i have been unable to make myself into the person I've wanted to be as a kid, i have a disease that will spell my end in a maximum of 9-10 years, and i have enough people i will leave behind. To fall in love means i have to actually go back and try to be happy, I've been trying to keep myself clear of all desires but this girl i know is trying to get close to me so i'm trying to calm myself from my emotions and stay low.

Anon, if you only have that amount of time left, you might as well enjoy it. By shutting yourself off from others you're only hurting them in the long run. When you're gone, people will want to remember the you that smiled, not the one who was sad.

>Reading will fix my life
Stop thinking like this, nobody else is going to fix it. Only you.

You'll regret it and you know you will. You're just making this post because you get off on the thought of performative self-flagellation.

Thing is, i don't want to allow myself to fall in love, i don't want to fall into something i might taste for one moment and then never have the opportunity to eat. To abstain from something i will never know i will never long for it.

I already regret it.

Anon, it may be an Instagram-thotworthy truism, but you need to embrace the phrase “don’t cry because it’s over, smile because it happened.”

Everyone else is you.
