Anyone else here who falls in love with women who show mild compassion towards them?
They act nice towards me, and I start falling in love with them and getting flustered and anxious when around them, but it always turns out that they're not interested in me or like someone else.
My heart sank when I found out that my oneitis was a lesbian. I don't know what to do, I can't recover from that. Even then I don't have the guts to tell her how I feel. It probably wouldn't matter at all but I just can't...
It hurts.

You don't really love these girls. You're just seeking happiness outside of yourself.

I'm in a similar situation. If an anonymous poster on 4chan is nice to me throughout a reply chain I fantasize about living with them.
That isn't love.
You're just lonely.

How do you know for sure it isn't love?
>>34531587
This. If you just latch onto the first person who shows you kindness then your 'love' means nothing. It's just a selfish infatuation

>selfish
Nearly all romantic love is selfish. It's not that it's selfish love, is that it doesn't make you feel special and so you don't want it.
I'm not even sure why you're doing this though. It sucks either way.

Because to think love is something you can establish repeatedly with women you only come in brief contact with, then you must hold a very shallow definition of love.
You're just experiencing infatuation.

You're just banging semantics. Take the word selfish out of it, and you're still just comparing infatuation against love.

I'm sure that I only experience infatuation, but it's not impossible for somebody to consistently fall deeply in love, just very unlikely.

For one, hello underage.
Stop being by yourself all the time and get out more(inb4 normie). You would then understand that the way they treat you isn't remotely close to liking you, it is how you act to literally anyone as a FRIEND or just being polite/kind to a stranger. I used to know that feel when I was an autistic woe-is-me freshman like you are anon. All though I still dislike the company of people that aren't my brother, I made a few acquaintances and came to a few realizations of how I was actually an autist. Gl desu

>All though
I would be very surprised if you were older than OP.

You might roll your eyes at me, but there's a good book called "Sex, Love, or Infatuation: How Can I Really Know?"
It's used at both a college and high school level so it's an easy read. A lot of it is based on real scientific studies.
It's a quick read and you can still take it with a grain of salt, just maybe contrast it against what kind of principles you've established when it comes to your own history of relationships.

Check out the fucking chad over here. Bitches showing him compassion instead of disgust

I don't have one of these, will I still enjoy the book?

Sure. You don't need to be experienced to read it.
I fall for any attractive female that I don't know immediately know is in a relationship, especially if they are semi nice to me.
