With all due respect, I couldn't think of emotions as like a bank. I couldn't expect other people to make deposits for me because invariably I would be disappointed.
Your story interests me. You said you grew up in a great, affectionate family with really loving parents, who sound like they did the right things by you. (oh, how some of us would like to go back and rewrite our histories! but we can't..) So, are you trying to recreate those childhood feelings in your life now, so you can feel that warmth? Does your present life not live up to that? It's interesting to me because so many people are looking to make up for what they missed, but I never thought about it from this other point of view.
If I have misunderstood you, please forgive me.
