| i don't think it was one of your internet friends. i think it was them spying on you and instead of saying, "we saw what you posted," they're making your friends the bad guy, taking them off the hook. |

| It's weird. i HATE the telephone, i hate the sound it makes when it rings. HOWEVER, if *I* am the one making the call, it's okay. especially considering the fact that i interview people...i guess i can handle it because i'm in control, i leave myself and my fears, and i get to do the mental probing ... |

| I'm super-easy to get along with; i don't generally friend people i don't really know or haven't had any contact with, and if someone makes a request i usually spend a little time on their FB wall to see what they're about. I've only had to ban four people directly myself; one because they had turne... |

| i thought it was because quirky girls are HOT , and every guy, deep down, wants to date a hot weird girl. Not being able to sustain a 5-minute conversation is totally hot. Asperger's is a disability, not just being quirky. Oh, don't get me wrong, I understand that all too well. I'm just saying that... |

| you should learn to cultivate the difference between "shy" and "soft-spoken." they are the same things, but not really. yes, there are those who think shyness = weakness. but forget about them. you can say powerful things, but you don't have to use a loud voice to do so. same thing with the opposite... |

| never put yourself into the role of being, in her eyes, the object of pity. because that turns you into a "white man's burden" so to speak, that she's earning her damn angel wings by being your friend. because what happens is they don't consider you human, so that when you have Real Live Feelings, t... |

| Yeah, it's not so much the oddness, it's the unheardness of it all that made me wonder. Then again, Liza Minelli had a string of husbands who were professional "cross-dressers" (70s term, they were performing artists) That one of them portrayed her mother, Judy Garland...well, that's a whole 'nother... |
