I have emotions but I feel like I don't love anyone and have never been in love with anyone. I do not want anyone hurt and I cannot bear to see anyone suffer but I just cannot love anyone.

did something happen to you in your past that you are still unable to get over? think about it. you may need to solve some problems in your life (past or present) before you are able to express emotions on other things.

If you have emotions then trust me -- you do feel love for others. You probably just don't recognize it. Anyway, there are many forms of love. If what you're seeking is romantic love then you probably don't feel close enough to other people for this particular love to blossom. Having a crush on someone isn't love, it's simply an attraction. Try to get closer to people, find out what makes them tick, and accept them for what they are. Chances are you will fall in love with someone eventually.

The only person you need to love and understand is yourself. Then and only then will you carry the insight and positive energy to love, understand and relate to others. Then and only then are you truly ready for the amazing expereince of falling in love. There's no rush.
Word of caution, most people mistake "falling in love" with someone else for your eternal call to fall in love with yourself. You then expect others to give you what you are really in essence starving to give yourself, if you'd only take a few quiet moments to observe, you will clearly see.
Only by understanding the reality of your nature can you truly understand the nature of others. True compassion.
Watch out for signs. The right person is not always that person that compliments you perfectly. It's sometimes that person that challenges you, that causes you to expand your awareness of reality, that helps you grow spiritually.
Sex is not love. Sex in and of itself is desire. Misery is at the end of the road called desire. Misery leads to more desire to escape Misery. As you can see, a bad cycle.
Security is the illusion of calming fear. Love doesn't calm fear. It faces it head on.
Love is when you get burned by someone really bad, yet you still wish happiness upon them.
Love is not a possession. Love does not live wrapped around a finger. Love is not a convention, a machine or a magic pill. Love is not an object.
Love yourself, and as you do this, you will see that love surrounds you and is immediately felt by anyone in your presence. There will be no question that needs to be answered.

You need to ask yourself an honest question. What is love? I think your expectations as to what that emotion should feel like dont meet what it is. There are a number of emotions that are described as love. Lust is the one thats all hot and steamy, then there is parental love, the love of a child and that love an old couple have. Think about what love means to you. What kind of love are you looking to experience. If you are rather fond of someone to the point you want to make sure they are alright in life, you love them. That is love. If you accept someone unconditionally, that is love. If you care enough not to care for their flaws, its love.

Do you love yourself? I'm not talking about narcissism here, but rather whether or not you love yourself IN SPITE OF your faults and because of your virtues and who you are, not what others think of you.
This is an important question, because if you do not know yourself and love yourself, how can you ever hope to accept others for their faults and virtues and love them? ALL people have faults and virtues (yes, ALL), and everyone can learn to love others unconditionally just by practicing acceptance of others. When you would normally say, "oh, I just can't stand people that do this", step back and say, "well, maybe I don't like it, but WHY are they this way? And can I accept their doing this now that I know why they do this?"
You don't have to love everyone, but so many times people get disappointed because they've set up expectations. People make mistakes. It's a fact of life. No, you shouldn't just accept everyone and every mistake, but you need to learn what you CAN accept and what you can't. It drives me batty that my hubby leaves his dirty socks on the floor....but I can love him in spite of this quirk because it's not a deal-breaker for me. Some people, it might be, but for me, there are different things - cheating, lying, etc.

As the late, great Dean Martin sang:
"Everybody loves somebody
Sometime
Everybody Falls in Love
Somehow..."
You just haven't met the right person, yet. When that person comes along, you will love.

It sounds like a question for Heavenly Father. Not only can he help answer that question, but he can bless you with people in your life, if you ask, to help you along with this. Best wishes!
