Wow! How great to admit that.
There is a place only God can fill inside of each one of us - he made us that way.
When we come to him in faith he fills it - he is with you and you are never alone.
Read "The Purpose-Driven Life" by Rick Warren. He talks about just that.

Not me...God the Holy Spirit lives within me. I used to feel empty inside before God saved me, though. It is a miserable feeling.
Seek the Lord while he may be found!

Yeah.. Not only empty but dead inside too often. What do you suppose it means? Are we just too broken to be fixed or do we chose to be this way since it's easier than feeling anything? Who knows, who cares..

I did for many years then this happened and I haven't felt that way since.
Several years ago I had an unusual experience concerning an uncle, a distant relative who lived over a thousand miles away.
While driving my car I suddenly felt the unmistakable presence of this relative that I hardly even knew. He was more like someone I had heard about than someone I knew. It was very strange; it felt as though I was momentarily lifted right out of my physical body. I seemed to be suspended somehow beyond space and time, bathed in a love so intense It felt like I could have just disappear into it at any moment if It would have let me. It only lasted for a few seconds, but it seemed to last forever at the same time. I realize how crazy this must sound. The experience was so strong that at first I was afraid I was loosing my grip on reality. I finally managed to chalk it up to an over active imagination.
Three days later I got a call from my aunt telling me that this uncle we are talking about had gone into a coma and died the day I had the experience. It felt like ice water had been poured down my back when she told me this. I had lost any real ideas of God or faith and had become somewhat of an atheist. Needless to say this experience caused me to rethink some of the conclusions I had come to.
I feel blessed to now understand that even in our darkest confusion something loves us so much that it went out of its way to assist me and bring me back to a state of absolute certainty about Gods love for us.
During the experience it seemed like there was a vast amount of information that I was somehow allowed access to. One thing that I came away from this experience understanding beyond any shadow of a doubt was that any Idea that God is unhappy with us or would judge or allow us to be punished for any reason is simply impossible.
I can’t explain the love I felt with words. They simply don’t make words big enough or complete enough to do this. The only way I can begin to convey this love to you is to say that there was simply nothing else there. Nothing but love. No hint of judgment, no displeasure of any sort. It is as though God sees us as being as perfect as we were the day we were created. It is only in our confused idea of ourselves that we seem to have changed.
I have no idea why this happened to me. I certainly did nothing to deserve it. I hope this is of some help to you. Good luck. Love and blessings.

Empty, no. Alone, no. Confused, occasionally but then I seek and I find and I know what to do.
Peace Be With You,

two times in my life I've felt that way
1. when my dearest grand mother died and i stood next to her at the death wake and at the time she was buried and i had to throw a limb of soil over her coffin
2. when my so called 2 best friends deceived me .. and I've found that for 4 years of my life I've been living a lie.

Of course. Emotions are what make us human, and there's no way to live without experiencing a few negative ones.

The reason you feel empty inside is because of your lust for a woman that you do not have. You really should let her go, she is not all that and in time you can do better.
STOP THINKING ABOUT HER !!!

everybody does once in a while. Its a sign of minor depression. Go out and do something for someone else.
