I'm in a period of letting go of people for a while. In my mind I have the habit of thinking that only when I'm okay with myself, will I be able to be okay with someone.
I've been (however) been developing feelings for someone... and honestly, as cold and apathetic it may sound, I really don't want to feel... I want a period of time where I can be completely and utterly void of any stimulus from other people... I've been thinking of going on a wilderness sabbatical but if there's an easier way please do tell me...

When my marriage ended I went through a period of this but I took it too far. The first few months were exactly what I needed to do, even the thought of being linked to another romantically were further most from my mind. Four years later I looked around and realised that there was no-one in my life except family. Any friends I had had walked away, not surprising really as you can only reach out to another for so long.
When I came to the realisation that I had excluded myself from the world physically and emotionally for too long a period a resounding sense of lonliness swept in.
Take some time to yourself if need be, just not for too long !
