Are you in a relationship? Do you have a crush on someone right now? Are you really in love? Or are you just emotionally hungry? Emotional hunger can be caused by deprivation in childhood. Those who suffer from emotional hunger usually look to rely on something or someone else to fill a void or emptiness in themselves. If you started your relationship in desperation with only attention and affection in mind, its best to evaluate if that desire is being mistaken as true love. So, how do you know if you are confusing emotional hunger for love? Well, here are six signs you are emotionally hungry. We also made a video on the signs you're emotionally wounded

I don't think anyone will see this but I just need a place to talk. Hello, I am Mr. Cookie, I am a guy, I'm 15 and a couple months ago I met a wonderful girl to be in a relationship with, I texted her a lot and wanted to do more video calls, and then 2 weeks ago I came across a TikTok that was pointing out things that describe me and was put as Love Deprivation. I sent this to my gf and she told me that it's ok and that she understands but, im starting to worry that maybe it's not ok. Every second I'm not with her I feel the need to be with her, and I'm scared of what this could turn into in the future. After learning these things I don't know if it's love, or the starvation for affection, and I want it to be love but I can't just make it that. I'm getting to the point where I'm losing sleep just thinking about it and I don't know what to do. Thank you for your time, -Cookie.

I'm starting to understand my old wounds a lot better now than I ever did in earlier stages of my life, and this video honestly hit close to home a little. I know I'm not the only one who's been adopted and brought to America for a better life, and yet, living in the states for most of my life has made me feel different things at different points in time. I just didn't understand half of the things I was carrying with me at the time, whether it was abandonment issues that are related to me being adopted, or feeling like a wallflower in certain social situations back in high school l and struggling to speak up for myself. I definitely don't blame my parents now for how I've turned out, but if anything, I realize that my views in life and how I navigate it doesn't make having a relationship with them easy sometimes.

I met all the signs. I am emotionally hungry and struggling. I do many things to fill the void. Bad things mostly. I'm in love with my partner and I'll not say I don't love him. But my crazy attachment is because of the emotional hunger and lack of tenderness from childhood. He's getting suffocated how i cannot let him go to watch tv or be alone. His introverted intj person and I'm an Enfj. I will talk to a professional therapist. I wanna fix myself and be the best version of me asap. I thought me and my partner's relationship is being constantly this confusion because the age gap, I'm 19 and his 27. But it's not that. Cause the issue was with everyone I've been with
Thank you for reading and please advise me if you have any, take good care all of u guys.

VENT WARNING
pov: you relate to a lot in this video but you don't have many friends, you think you'll be needy or weird if you constantly try to hug or lightly touch them, you don't have a partner and you keep jumping from person to person and you've got no idea how to cope or help this feeling. Everyonce in a while you feel like you're gonna break down in tears hugging your chest becuase you miss something you've never felt and it aches like a sharp pain within you at night. Around other people you're so clingy and talkative you regret not thinking about what your saying afterwards and start to feel down while with your friends. Lol I've got no way to cope how do I fix this.

Any person that just simply gives me a hug or something like that makes me drawn to them in just a second. Now that i do think about it every time i have fallen in love has something to do with touch. Its like i need these hugs to keep myself happy. But i also feel like im annoying my friends that i get hugs from. I feel like hugging me is like signing a contract to be apart of a group that keeps me emotionally stable wich (i feel like) can be very overwhelming from another persons perspective. I try respecting others by stopping myself wich i hope makes my friendships normal again instead of awkward. But i feel like doing that makes me feel really dull and unhappy.

Could wanting attention from your family make you emotionally hungry, especially if you haven't been out or seen your friends?
I noticed that I want more attention than most of my family lately, wanting to talk more when they're busy, like giving hugs, being in others business, realizing that I am clingy. Is this a form of emotional hunger?
To add they aren't neglecting me either. I just wanna be around more, I guess but I don't wanna leave the house and that's where they wanna do the bonding experience. What should I do?

reply

I have some of these symptoms but it doesnt make sense on why Id have an emotional hunger. I was extremely loved as a child and I had so much attention payed to me, but now, I have almost no friends and rarely get to talk to people at all. I am unsure but think that this is just a sign of loneliness within me, for I am simply seeking more social connections.
reply

I started getting better when I found real friends. We share our whole selves with each other all the time and I found after I was getting that part of me much more satisfied, I found that I wasn't falling in love with people that treated me like a human being.
Unfortunately, that meant I was no longer interested in the person I was with anymore.

reply

I'm definitely starved I'm in a relationship with a girl i love and I so want to be better for her but mainly myself. It is so hard to see myself being this way and not strong enough to stop before I do it, so to anyone who is also starved and trying to recover I have faith in you so please have faith in me too.
reply

I think the best thing to do is change expectations to attainable levels. This is different for everyone. I'm far too old to blame my childhood. We've really become far too fragile. In historical perspective, we should be happy to have enough to eat, that we're not in chronic pain.

Came here after searching, love deprived
_First question: _ 1 - Are you in a relationship?
2 - Do you have crush on someone?
3 - Are you really in love?
4 - Are you just emotionally hungry
Seems like no place for single people, so I'm gonna head out.

reply

0: 45 I think, people usually not start their relationshplip from love, like how it is possible if you do not even know the person, not a lot of space for mistake, lol.
4: 50 uhm, I expected for those steps to be in the video, when clicked XD

Ive been emotionally hungry and touch starved for 12 years and Im actually in love but its a ldr and I need affection and weve lost contact and Im getting the life sucked out of me but Im young and my friends are not the right people to talk to
reply

I did some introspection to myself, All i realised that I need some love but don't know why, I tend to work a lot on my music and my career but seem to get nothing, feels like I don't even belong here. That prolly is the reason I need love
reply

I do all if not most of myself. I want others to look at me and think Wow! That is someone who is actually worth a crap! I wanna be just like that person! I have a void in my heart. And I don't know if I can find the peace to fill it.
reply

I don't know if I really have a problem or maybe I just need to grow up I'm 26yr and never been in a relationship more than two months the same thing is about to happen with the girl I started dating a week ago
reply

I am. I am emotionally hungry for years. All I need is attention and not talking about toxic people in my life. Every signs here is resonates with me so well, and I need to fixed it
reply

I don't even want attention, i just wanted my mom's love, i still crave it like a baby I'm 31 year adult grown ass. Help! And yes she is alive but dead emotionally
reply

Isn't this called something else in psychology? Because everything extra I search leads me to eating food based on emotions and this video is not about that
reply

On number five, I coped with sh ( im currently 3 months clean) the feel of my arm just on fire made me feel something and just made me ignore how i feel
reply

isn't there a limit to how much self-reflection one can do? also, what if one's on a diet. it's difficult to even think if this is the case?
reply

I grew up with a loving family and genuine friends but something deep inside me wants to be with a woman. Feels like a hole in my heart
