| And as one person pointed out, how do you know what a person who is called "mentally ret*d" is thinking? They might have actually as much intelligence as someone who has an IQ of 114, but only in a different way, even if they can't speak. "Empty buckets make more noise", ever heard of that phrase?? ... |

| Hello and happy New Year!! When I read all these comments, I didn't know what to think. You see, I am really 33 1/2 years old, in terms of chronological age, but emotionally and socially, and in some ways, mentally, I'm like a 4 1/2 to 5 year old, 95% of people that have known me for over 3 years te... |

| TobyZ - people should find people who are like them, that have the same types of interests and hobbies. If you have NOTHING in common, there is no iceball's chance in Hell that you are going to have a relationship. I did that with a girl, and got nowhere with her (and she did have Asperger's Syndrom... |

| Spokane Girl - I do not hate AB/DLs. It's just sometimes that I don't get this adult baby stuff. But at the same time, I am perfectly content to let whoever wants to be an adult baby enjoy themselves. Whatever floats their boat. I am not here to judge anyone. I don't judge anyone even criminals beca... |

| Me?? I was hopping for most of my life till recently. What I mean is that I walked on my toes. I never touched the heel of my shoe to the ground. I was always hopping around like a bunny. I have more control now. I saw a occupational therapist when I was 9 years old. If I am nervous and worried, I c... |

| I want to make one thing really clear. I mentioned about wanting to be a 4 year old or a 3 year old again. I DO NOT in any way, want to EVER be a 10 year old to 14 years old again. That would be like going to Hell. I got teased, picked on, kicked around, bullied extensively when I was in 5th grade, ... |

| Spokane, by children's rides, I mean those that I can get on without a height restriction. For example, I consider carousels (Merry go rounds) and teacups rides to be children's rides. We'll just say the more scarier rides are for adults (eg. roller coasters, swings that go around fast, etc). And yo... |

| How can I not stop playing with baby toys when I see them? They are irresistable to me. And also, please do not even MENTION "Big baby". There are people that would probably assume (if they didn't read what I wrote), that I have some sort of fetish, some sort of infantilism (adult baby) fetish where... |

| Toby, I wrote 2 messages because if I wrote all that in just one, it would NOT have posted all of it. I have tried that in the past, a few years ago, and I had to seperate my long note, because it would only take half of what I wrote and post it on the Wrongplanet board. Sorry if it bothers you.
