I will either have to find a way to enjoy being lonely, or enjoy being around people. I wouldn't hate being around people so much if communication were like it is in dreams. When I am talking to someone in my dream, my main focus is on the subject of the conversation, rather than on how well I...

YouTube - Extended interview with Kirk Smalley Hopefully you can make it through the video without sobbing. I can sort of relate to the kid. This bully threw rocks at me in 6th grade, and after one hit my eye and made it bleed I threw a rock back that hit his backpack. We both got detention...

I'm not just talking about rejection from dating; I'm also talking about rejection from peers, and social blunders (because they all elicit that horrible feeling of embarrassment). For most people, I think, the pain doesn't last very long. They feel bad about it for at most 10-20 minutes, and...

I'm curious to see if SA'ers are different in their political views than the general population.

Today, I drove home thirsty because I didn't want to ask for a glass of water at a restaurant. I just really hate asking for stuff. I hate showing my face, I hate having to use my horrible voice, and I hate having to decide when to say "thank you" without it being weird and without my voice...

I hate going outside because I really don't like walking beside other people. I just get so uncomfortable; I can't explain why. I get so worried about the way I walk. I'm always worrying about whether I am giving people their personal space and not getting in anyone's way. Crowded hallways are...

I saw this and thought it was kind of cool: The Reincarnation Station: Find out what you'll be in your next life! I got alligator. I'm curious to see what other people got

I have this problem when I talk to people. It'll be my turn in a conversation and I just completely forget everything about everything. Examples: My interests (grrr...i hate it when people ask about my interests and hobbies because my only interest or hobby is the internet), my name, other...

There's this really weird thing in google translate that I saw on a funny pictures site. To see it: 1. Go to translate.google.com 2. Translate "lick" from English to Arabic 3. Copy the third entry under the "verbs" column and then translate it back into English 4. WTF lol DO IT BEFORE GOOGLE...

I just saw this comic, and I thought I would put it on here for some inspiration:

I'm sure a lot of people think I'm a big jerk because when people say "hello" to me when they're passing me in the hall, they rarely hear me say it back. I'm not a jerk though, I'm really not. It's just that saying greetings is PHYSICALLY difficult for me. I'm not afraid that people will...
