(raises hand) That's definitely true for me. "Altruistic" with me in the same sentence would be not simply wrong, it'd be ridiculous enough to be a good joke! I don't go out of my way to help others, I go out of my way to simply get out of the way, so I don't have any obligations to anyone...

Hello anxiousmess, how are you?

I either don't believe you, or you'd have to qualify what you're saying, a little better. Also, have you any concern for the discomfort of the other woman? Are you sure the behavior is acceptable?

I have the same thing as ya'll describe, more or less. Now, this may be a tangent. But I think this is mostly a developmental or genetics-influenced thing. There's a lot of good evidence that points in that direction, holistically. More personally, I have relatives on both sides who have...

I'm going to say I think it would be uncommon to have a language processing disorder as you describe, within a vacuum. I think this comment may come across as blunt or insensitive, but it's not my intention, honestly. From what I saw and read, your problem is not verbal decoding or writing in...

Hello Sinopia, I only have insomnia for a peculiar reason (depends on perspective, though)--I tend to prefer the deep night as that's when I can concentrate best. Not as if there's much demand for my awkward self, during the day, either.. though. Myself and other folks--we don't get along...

Where's the Spartan when you need him? That guy knows how this Game works, he doesn't sugarcoat things. Just doesn't have the courage to come into this thread I guess.

What kind of "help" is there, when there is a denial of the problem in the first case? If you won't listen to what I'm saying, you're not offering help. I've LIVED the online dating experience enough to know how it works. There's nothing there. There is no "free pass" for low-achieving men...

Yes, I am in the same boat. Now, I don't want to be dismissive of your suggestion, but I'm not sure you grasp what I said in the earlier post. I think that's because, understandably, you lack the experience of being guy in today's world. You did show some awareness in *another post*, you said...

I would say men are screwed these days. I don't want to get too deeply into it so I'm not going to use very specific language here. A lot of you folks are bright enough, you should be able to see what I mean given the subject of this thread. The basic problem is this: on one side there are...

Anyone know? I was reading someone's post about "living in their own head" and having anxiety, which caused them to avoid making social strides and improving, etc. One response to this said it's "the result of having an extremely self-centered worldview," while another said it could also be...

If one is a pathetic loser for a long time--I'll define it by not being college educated (with perhaps no ability to become so), ADDish, socially deficient, and either in crappy jobs or has no job--is it ever possible to lose the stigma? Is it ever possible for such an individual to find a...

Let's talk about this just in reference to forums. In my case it has always been extremely rare to be gone from a forum for a while (even if I post very often there) and have anyone send a message or otherwise convey the notion that I was missed. It bothers me, to be honest... even more so...

Time and time again with me, it simply comes down to the fact that whatever it is I'm looking for... requires some level of real-life socializing to acquire. Attempting to fill this void by socializing online does not work for me, or at best, is an incomplete "fix." The facade of fulfillment...

I just got the GotY Edition of Fallout 3 (PC version), on Steam. I've heard so many good things about this game over the years, I guess I have to cave in and play it, despite knowing it will probably take up too much of my time. But apparently there are a lot of unofficial mods/fixes for it...

I guess some of you more well-read in the subject may find this redundant, but perhaps the best course of action--before trying things like "exposure therapy" and the like--is to re-adjust self-image. So, the most important thing: Improve self-esteem.. but NOT via external validation...

This is for anyone who wants the game "Risk of Rain." I have 3 steam codes I can't use for this game, they have to be gifts. So that means you pay nothing! First come first serve. PM me for details! BTW, don't wait too long, the codes will vanish if not used by November 25th!

I'm currently playing Assassins Creed 1. The first game in the series, on PC. I have mixed thoughts on it, though. The good: I find the presentation to be mostly stellar: it really *does* say "next gen" when you have so many NPCs on the screen at once, rendered so fluidly. I think the game...

In another forum I had been PMing with a woman for a while, talking about a variety of life issues. I was interested in what this person had to say and it seemed like they didn't mind the discussion. At some point they stopped responding and I thought nothing of it. Just today her boyfriend...
