quickest way to get a completely unmanageable list of several hundred irritating 'friends' is to play one of the silly games such as "farmville" or "cafeworld". People add other people who play in order to get bonus stuff in the games. There are groups and pages specifically for the purpose of assis... |

Like Rat_Barzane, it's much easier for me to type out text than it is to speak my thoughts, and once I do this, it is much easier for me to speak these particular thoughts later, although rarely in the same degree of detail. Yes! One of the reasons I blog is so that I am able to speak my thoughts l... |

Depends on the social situation. I mean lets be honest, as Aspies there's nothing quite as terrifying as that complete silence of everyone around you after you just said something you thought was a meaningful addition to the conversation. When the only thing you can hear is the traffic outside, the... |

I agree that sexuality is on a spectrum and one need not rush to write in stone where they are on the spectrum, I identified as bi for a while due to confusion, but once I got a better understanding of myself I settled into "lesbian" - Because I have absolutely no sexual desire for men, never have..... |

I am amused by the "black and white" responses lol.. Its either horribly patronising or accurately useful depending on people outlook.. Personally, rather than looking at it as a "Hey introverts, stop being so introverted" statement, I would think its more of a "being introverted is ok, but humans a... |

I'm not all that keen on cats personally but much of the reason for that is bad experiences with some very badly behaved cats, and that fact that I am allergic to 99% of them.. I'm more of a dog & rat person. (Although I just generally like animals) I currently have one cat, (the only one I kept... |

I haven't produced any walls of text on here thus far, partially because I don't expect people to have enough interest to read a wall of text of my creation, however I do write a lot, in the form of blog posts, which are, basically walls of text containing whatever is in my head... I find it easier ... |

Sounds like you're gay, but think in a feminine way.. I was confused for a while during adolescence, I would sometimes think I liked men but it was more that I felt like I was one.. Enjoyed spending time with men for the masculine activities and conversation, wanted to be a man.. Not have sex with t... |
