Hi. Don't post here often, but here goes. I've lately lost a few friends (you know, they stop responding to you altogether.) I know they're alive, but they're gone from my life. So... I asked one parent about why I maybe lost them. They pointed out that I complain about my problems. So? I...

I hate it when I find out that's what somebody thinks. I try so hard to be nice, and people (espcially women) still get some screwed up misconception that I'm scary or dangerous. WTF

I know... I know... it's common, or so I'm told. Don't you ever wonder why, though? Like, it just happened yesterday, I could have sworn that person liked me. They have just about everybody else on their list from the class I knew them from. I hate that. I guess I have to accept they didn't...

I always have been. I'm coming to realize it's the reason I don't take as many risks as I ought to. I'm afraid of embarrassing myself, afraid of getting insulted and not knowing how to stand up for myself, and afraid of rejection. When it happens, I don't brush it off and forget it like most...

Does it kinda get to you? Like, you wonder if they don't like you, or if they think you're weird, or maybe they're just kinda weird themselves and do it to everybody? Tell me, do you have these thoughts?

At least it feels like I'm getting hated for it. People cast their eyes down, they look uncomfortable, they won't acknowledge me. One girl at my gym said, "You look quiet when I see you come in." I laughed, because that's mixing senses, but still. I don't get it. I just hate my life sometimes.

Do you ever find yourself wondering that? I sometimes find myself in the dog house with people for no reason. Meaning, they seem to despise me out of nowhere, and I can't figure out why. When I ask others for advice, people just say "oh, they're probably like that to everybody." but it sure...

I probably don't have it full blown, but I only have a limited number of places I feel comfortable outside my home, the gym being one. While I don't panic in public, I don't particularly enjoy going out that much. How do you know if you have it?

A family member sat me down on the back porch one night, and we got to talking about dealing with people at work. He's come to learn, no matter where you go, somebody will dislike you, no matter what. Unfortunately, that has indeed been my experience in this ****** up life. I've heard this from...

Sometimes if I perceive a slight, or somebody's afraid of me or might think I'm a "creep," instead of getting hurt it just really really angers me nowadays, because I don't see why. Anybody?

When I click on my screen name, I'm used to the "Find all posts by ________" like on other sites. How can I do so here?

I shouldn't but I do. I sometimes resent my mother for smothering me, and getting way over emotional when I'd tell her about situations in school- I mean, she'd fall apart in front of me, and of course that never helps you feel emotionally strong. She'd literally do everything for me too. Sure I...

I noticed this a lot (in fact, ever since I high school.) People will either catch eye contact for a split second than snap away and pretend to not notice me... or... they might get this worried uncomfortable look, nod or say "hey whassup," and keep going. I've been told I have a penetrating...

Hey, 28/m here. I've never received an official diagnosis, but from what I've read here I'm sure I'll plenty in common with you folks.
