| No, it isn't just you, simply-me. I have a problem with driving as well. I don't mind getting INSIDE a car, but the idea of driving fills me with so much anxiety, that I can barely think straight. I worry that something bad might happen because of it. Therefore I am not going to drive. ditto! :) wh... |

I got my license after doing the driving course twice, and I only did it because my parents believe that it'll be easier for me to move around if I drive, as opposed to t... |

| I will re-read my same favorites many, many times. Usually, it will take me a year or so to become interested in the text again, but if a book is written in a particular way that appeals to me, and is an interesting story, I will re-read many, many times. It's like comfort food, and I always keep a... |

26, female, still a virgin.
it shames me because it just means that so far no man has wanted me.
well more than shame it hurts when I think about being this old and never having had a bf.
I wonder all the time if I'm just meant to be alone for the rest of my life  |
