Why would I be upset if a man told me that he loved me… ?

I keep thinking about it but don’t understand why I would be so upset. I keep envisioning myself yelling at him to take it back and I envision myself slapping and hitting him.. almost enraged.

But a man has never told me that he loved/loves me.

Possibly emotional neglect as a child. Never being told “I love you” by family. Therefore if a partner ever said it to you, you would get upset because it feels wrong.

They told me they loved me..

Like I said, “possibly”. I’m not sure why you would be upset if a man told you he loved you then. Maybe consider going through therapy, that type of help can open your eyes.

You were taken advantage or gave your heart away to a boy that pooped all over it in the past. 💩

Yes, I could agree.

The first two reasons that came to mind are, it's either some form of self loathing, or it's a clash with the perception "All men are evil".

[Asker]

Maybe both. I agree

[Wise4myage]

Is it because your not attracted to him?

[Asker]

It’s never happened

[spartan55]

Sounds about right.
