It really does help to realise that everyone thinks of themselves first. However in a relative sense they are not all bad people, they are just doing what they do. To me that's the point. It costs a lot of insight looking and failures to understand that people are not to be blamed just because they... |

Perhaps I was being naive, but I kind of figured the AS crowd would tend towards atheism or agnosticism. I know a lot of us make some pretty silly choices, but at the heart of it, I felt like we had a better "feel" for the way things actually work. We're so wrapped up in our own heads that we aren'... |

I had been actively avoiding it for years. The best years of my life so far. I was absolutely free from family, friends and social pressures about me being in a relation, because I clearly saw it was the best for my life. I could dedicate all my energies to what I liked and discovered a lot of new a... |

It looks like my point of view about love is simply very old. Call it romantic love? Well, then romantic love scares people. I lately got involved in what had the look and feel of romantic love with a girl, but I could not sort it out due to my blindness about her feelings and needs. So I asked for ... |

Naive could be described as childish trust, you belive people are telling you the truth. (And to some extent, they want what's best for you.) Ohhh yes, I am. Some weeks ago I gave 20€ :oops: to two little gipsies (not at all naive) claiming they were raising funds for some UN projects!! ! I was wit... |

My obsessions are clearly, to myself at least, consequence of anxiety. Anxiety is consequence of me not being up to a task. Tasks that I am not up to mainly are: socializing superficially and worthless conversation. Why? Because it makes no sense the effort to me, I guess. How would you answer? Why ... |

That's me too. Unlike jellyfish, some people manipulate me though
When I notice manipulation I start looking for the emergency button... to stop the world. |

Why bother? I got this statement from a person who could guess what I had (sensitive indeed), without any outing: "Ok, I see, don't think you can act differently though! You are the one that has got to come to our ground". I was left wordless, as always. I do not see how to build a bridge across thi... |

I have spent my whole life trying to fit in the NT world. That was hypocrite. Now that I stopped trying, almost, I'm so confused that I don't even know when I am cheating and when I am not. On the other hand, what's straight in a world in which you cannot go clear about your feelings, the reasons be... |
