How do I overcome this?

Its been 3 years since my fiance left me and broke my heart and one year since my new boyfriend left me and also broke my heart. Now I can't get close to people, I don't seem to have any emotional feelings for anyone. Is this normal? How do I overcome this?

    Yes it is normal and also sad. I have a hard time getting "close" to anyone after a terrible cheating wife destroyed my belief in women years ago. I have hundreds of good friends and they all want me to start dating again and probably will as soon as I meet someone with the morals I am looking for. Good luck to ya!!

    Take time just for yourself -- get monthly spa treatments, find a fun hobby to enjoy, spend time with friends and family. It's OK to just be alone for a while and do your own thing. It sounds like you've been thru a lot.

    You will have to let go of the past and learn to trust again. And, start focusing on you and the kind of guys you give your heart too.

    This is normal. Time and keeping yourself occupied will help.
