| I believe that attractiveness is mostly subjective, but that culture, media, and society can direct what is viewed as "more attractive" versus "less attractive". For example, in the Victorian era, many "fuller figure" women were viewed as most attractive, versus the 1970's and 1980's where being thi... |

| For my and my fiance, our experiences of discovering one another was the one were different. However, I'm AS and he's NT. My interactions with him were different from other people from the start. I think a lot of it just comes down to compatibility. He and I are compatible in so many ways that at fi... |

| I've seen my boyfriend cry before, twice, and both times I held him close and wrapped my arms around him and reassured him many times that things were going to be okay, we'd figure out a solution somehow, and/or negotiate, etc. (situationally depending, of course). But mostly, I ended up trying to c... |

| I'm involved in a relationship (he's NT. But very shy, and has social anxiety). Our communication is pretty good, maybe better than some NT couples. :P We were friends and used to talk a long time after class was over (summer course), and he started opening up to me more and more. He's no longer shy... |

| You are correct, not every woman hates a shy man. I find that a shy man often opens up after a while and (IMO, of course - based off experience), that although it can take time, some people that are naturally shy have terrific personalities and are great people to be around. It just takes time. Pers... |

| My neighbors got better. They used to party all the time, but after my SO talked to them on several occasions they've calmed down with the partying. Now it seems that they're apartment (it's right next door to ours), is a pre-club meet-up area on the weekends, which is a lot better than their post-c... |

| I definitely have problems filtering out background noise. For instance at work there's so much going on sometimes that my brain just shuts down. It's embarassing sometimes, but it happens and I try to make the best of it. Worst case scenerio (which is usually at work) I have to ask the customer to ... |

| Well, the Bruins picked up Dougie Hamilton with the 9th pick (acquired from Toronto). 6'5 defensemen who could have easily been picked higher in the draft. Can you imagine a defense line of Chara and Hamiliton a few years down the road. The B's will have more height than an NBA team. :lol: Also gra... |

Funny thing is, is that Isabelle and misc. male were the same person just switched gender roles. But same interests/likes/dislikes/etc. I also had an imaginary Golden Retriever for a long time.

Black & Yellow by Wiz Khalifa just came on my Pandora radio station.
All I can think of is flashbacks to Marchand singing this song.
I feel like this video is stuck in my head on repeat.
