Is asexual going a bit too far? It probably is aye... I know how ridiculous that sounds.. but if there wasnt any desire then I wouldt be let down. I do like women, I think they are wonderful.... Perhaps I just need a shift in thinking.
I wouldnt say that about you Mr Jones, you seem perfectly likeable to me, you are one of the good guys... and I'm a dude... 😀
Sooner or later you won't be let down after feeling that desire, as long as you don't give up too soon.
And though I don't share your opinion, thank you. I think you are likeable too, btw.
I never said I disliked you, where you getting your information from? 😛
Maybe that means you don't know me good enough, but thanks for the comment. I get the information for all the people (and I say "all" because several people did) that dislike me (either because it's pretty obvious or because they said it).

That just means there are a few idiots out there. I can't think of a single person here who dislikes you, and I'm sure the vast majority of people IRL like you too.

They are not just a few. At least I'm glad I'm not important enough to be hated (or so I like to think). But dislike? Oh yes.
Grand parents were round earlier. I just never know what to say, even to family. I just end up sitting there awkwardly nodding or trying to smile while they talk to me. I'm sure it comes across as rude or lack of interest, as I've been accused of it many times.
Yeah, I do exactly the same, and my family accuse me of rude & not interested in talk with them too. Have you every told your family about your social anxiety issues?
I'm seriously considering shaving all my hair off next month - for no other reason than my hairline is starting to thin and recede, especially in the front. Should I do it?

Well my parents are aware to an extent, as I was on anti depressants and had counselling for a little while. Though I'm off them now, not that i'm any better of course, i just hated having to be dependent on drugs.
I wish the USA and NATO would stop creating wars and invading countries and funding 'rebels'. I mean, will Iran be the next Iraq? They try and justify these wars but the real reason is because of globalisation and the oil. I wish people could wake up from the matrix and see that the western leaders are corrupt.

I agree with you on that, mate. But if they try and justify war with Iran, I think it'll be far worse than Iraq. But then again, look what happened to Iraq in the aftermath of Saddam being removed.
Of course, the covert goal is globalisation and the oil. But I think most people don't like to think about these issues or western leader being corrupt. Because the implications are too much for people to deal with, I think.

It's very difficult sometimes to strike up or get involved in conversation with grandparents. My last remaining grandparent gets this way, too. I don't know if it's possible, but maybe tell them it's hard for you to get involved.
When I was a child I had a dog that I dearly loved...
My Mother was mentally-ill and hospitalized off and on all my years growing up.... If it had not been for my wonderful "Lady" (my dog) I may have ended up like her...I realize now as an adult how much a pet can take up the slack, so to speak, for vital things you don't get from family members.
I'll try to keep this short.
When I was in the fourth grade, my Mother once again was institutionalized & my Father gave my precious Lady to one of his Buddies and left me and my two older sister with his parents (our Grandparents), that lived on a farm in the country. Now I had no-one. I stopped going places and if not at school I sat in front of the tv. This lasted for 2 yrs. during this time, my Grandfather told me if I wanted to see Lady he would take me. I was so excited, I jumped up and went. When I got there she was not the dog I had known. She was the center of this family that had several children and a swimming pool. She live in the house with them and was adored. She didn't even act as if she knew who I was. I think that day is the day I decided I was totally unworthy..something was so bad about me that no one could possibly ever want me.
I never ever considered having another dog for years. Never even got my son a pet while he grew up. It just never occurred to me. I realized why about a year ago, when I knew inside I should get a dog for myself for companionship... I was afraid to love another dog the way I had Lady.
I got a little dog, his name is peanut, and I'm his mum.... I love him and he takes up a lot of the slack.. just like Lady did.
I told you this story so you might consider getting yourself a dog or cat maybe. No.. a pet cannot take the place of a spouse or children or friends.. But there is nothing like it and I don't know how to describe the feeling. I just love him and know how much more lonely than I am now, I would be, without him.
Maybe you could try again and love another dog.. Take a chance.
^ Oh I do have another dog, got her a few months after Zeus died (my old dog). She's quite adorable, very playful, and very smart. She just doesn't sense my emotions, doesn't have that same understanding as he did. Don't get me wrong, I still appreciate her, she's a great companion. I just miss that type of connection I had with my last dog.
