| Glad you posted this. Unfortunately, the way you described this explains what you are experiencing, but not why you are experiencing it. I was trapped in misdiagnosis for about 20 years because the language of psychology dominates the way we describe ourselves. I hate to think that you would get tra... |

Hey, Kid. I would first try to see if I could educate her about why you do what you do. Some people are open to it. If she is not, that might be enough to tell you what you should do. She may not be stupid or judgmental, she may be misinformed. Who better than you to inform her??

Feel free to respond if you are a woman looking to converse with a man who is date-able, understandable, presentable, likable, and wants to learn about you. My interests are Biology, Philosophy, Mathematics, and Art. Looking to enjoy life at whatever pace it comes.

My age is already written, I won't display my location for obvious reasons. I like my space and time, an... |

Is it a standard hypercube? |

| I think in pictures, in a way. On the left side of my visual field, when considering an idea, especially a dynamic, a graphic picture of the moving parts of this idea will form. It isn't symbolic, per se. It is more of an intuitively generated, monochromatic, two dimensional, somewhat mechanistic re... |

I don't know how to manage that, and I didn't realize how bad it was. This needs attention. I've had very damaging psych... |

| World: You can't expect to have success training a cat using only methods for dogs. Insisting that the cat should be impressed with your expectations of loyalty before autonomy is not a solution. Insisting that there is no such thing as a cat is simply going to give you an effed-up little dog. el B~ |

The lighter side also comes before oblivion. Please don't neglect it. I'm now realizing it may require some cultivation. But, the reaping may be more satisfying.  |

| Very similar thing happening to me right now. The anger is destroying me and nothing, and nobody feels safe. No future seems possible, no matter how much I have in the world. I simply cannot make it understood. I don't even have confidence in my own understanding of it. It's like I know what I'm exp... |
