This was kind of hard, because I've never actually experienced some of these (like parties, asking for a date, meeting a date's parents, etc.). In fact, for most of the "passive" things (being with the opposite sex, crowded places, group of strangers) I survive with little anxiety because I just literally disengage myself from the situation and it's like I'm not even there (also with my last sex/nudity experience as well). The "active" ones (like talking to an authority figure and giving a speech) I get through because I can have a "script" of sorts (easiest with the speech, of course). I don't have a group of friends and try not to ever draw attention to myself (good or bad), and I avoid new anything like the plague. I voted expressing my feelings- because I feel like not only am I not able to express them, I barely have any emotions to express, like I'm underdeveloped or something in that respect.
