embarrassing obsessions

Post Reply New Topic

I was deeply obsessed with Harry Potter in 7th grade (particularly Snape) and everyone knew about it xD
For awhile I was obsessed with Adam Lambert; now I'm just interested in gay rights in general, particularly writing/reading stories about gay men (but I'm indifferent to lesbians). It's not so strong I'd call it an "obsession," though.

Oh, dear. I used to be extremely obsessed with SpongeBob. I COULD NOT miss an episode, or you couldn't be near me. I had to have every book, know every piece of trivia, everything...This went on up until I was maybe 13. Silly, silly me.
Now I don't think I have a technical "obsession." I have interests and sometimes crazes, but not really obsessions. I completely understand those who do have obsessions, though.

i have quite a few obsessions... most of which i dont mind people knowing about (like quantum physics) but some id rather keep to myself, like pain, psychopaths, brain dissections etc.... i dont actually have any spare time anymore still, im over my 'textures' obsession

I'm extremely obsessed with mental disorders, but my friends found out about that. I also obsessed about cross dressers, drag queens/kings and transvestites. A lot of people know that too now, I'm not ashamed though, sometimes I get a little embarrassed if someone teases me about it.

I'm obsessed with spellcheckers. I laugh each time a word is misspelled. I've had more embarrassing ones I'm not going to mention. Luckily this isn't my primary obsession. I'm also obsessed with keeping embarrassing obsessions secret

yeah i agree about the people obsessions they are embarressing. I mainly get obbessesed about tv shows and the ators in them. The embaressing part about that is that is google everything about them and the show :/ also another one i have is say with a sentence or a word i group it into 4 letters so if a gorup of 4 letters cant fit evenly into a word i dont like that word and same with a sentences. i think about that one all the time.

Mine aren't that bad really. They're mostly just a bit odd. I have a bit of an obsession with airplanes and air travel in general. Like, I'll look up different makes of airplanes, how many people they'll, what the seat layout is like, stuff like that. And I'll go to airline websites and compare what they're services are like (which is mostly depressing these days).

I have a few others which you might found even in NTs, but not quite to the same magnitude. Lets see... This musical called Chess, which is about the Cold War and how political the chess tournaments became during that time. It's obscure but I love it and can spend hours looking up videos on Youtube. Same goes for Wicked, except that it's less obscure.

Oh, and Communism and the Soviet Union. It fascinates me that it didn't work better than it did. There are so many places where if things had been just a little bit differently everything could have turned out so much better. As is, I often think that life in the Soviet Union, at least in the later years, wasn't quite as bad as the Americans portray it.

I see that we all have our obsessions. Mine is also in the medical field, especially Histology (study of tissues). But I don't think any of your obsessions are weird. Actually most of them I see as potential careers and jobs. I am going to school to be a Histology Technician, who prepares slides from biopsies and medical procedures for diagnosis. The best part of Asperger obsessions is that many of them can become careers, and since we are excellent at what we are interested in, we can become very excellent at that career. So next time you think your obsession is weird, think again. It may get you a great paying job and a great future.

I find belly buttons interesting. It may sound weird. when ever family members bring up the topic of belly buttons, I get squimish. When it's brought up by someone I am not related to, I'll go right on in. I don't like my family knowing about this. Also I think if they fing out about my obbsesstion, they will probibly find this to be porn. It's not porn, I don't look at private parts or genitiles. Just belly buttons.

I used to be obsessed with nazism, even getting that way myself. Now I am allsorts, which makes me look silly, which I like. But when my nationalistic and nazi ideals are brought up I get very uneasy about it and quick to correct.

The only thing I know of is when I was in grades 6-7, I was obsessed for cows for some inexplicable reason. Cool kid I was, I had a cow sweater coloured that I wore to school on a regular basis. Man, those years were embarrasing. Luckily, nowadays kids don't really care.

I can't say that I have any obsessions that I'm embarrassed about. Nothing too crazy either. Examples may include, but are not limited to: airplanes, ships, guns, cars, lasers, quantum and theoretical physics, science fiction, philosophy, computer software and hardware, video games, and electricity.

Oh, I forgot to put down Science Fiction and the Discworld Series. I am obsessed with physics and astronomy, but I don't see that as embarrassing.

Farting and gas- I'm seventeen years old going on eighteen and I can't get enough of them. An I'm a girl so most people think that's wrong for a girl to be in to that sort of thing especially an older one.

Food- I am way too much in love with food to a point where it brings me physical joy when I eat.

Teeth- I'd love to work as a dentist but I cannot because I have a thing for pulling out teeth and collecting them. I find them ultra fascinating.
I find it a bit sick but I'm actually hoping I get to pull out one of my younger siblings teeth when tooth fairy time comes.

My other obsessions-

Horror movies- I can't live with out them, I also have this kinda bad habit where I laugh at where someone dies in a horror movie. It's just I can always predict it.

The internet- I can't go more than two days with out it. If do not get it I am miserable.

For a while I was obsessed with my towns local legend Lizzy Borden. Anime was also a really big one too.
