I think the suggestion that some people are just lacking in personality implies more of a perceptual block around recognizing some personal traits. People overall are fascinating in the right perspective. I mean humanity also seriously freaks me out & generally intensifies my tendency toward isolation, although I can only hazard a guess that that's the mental block I'm supposed to be working on.

Honestly I think people are working on themselves here, even if anyone & everyone's more depressed posts just intensify a bunch of ongoing miscommunication, I think people are on here for a good reason. Coming up with reasons why so many of us have been or are alone strikes me as a zero sum. Telling people why women in general expect this & that or why guys should/shouldn't be doing [whatever] is such a pain in the a$$, just focus on some good things about good people for once.

I think that's what everyone here is ultimately aiming for. It's not actually that hard to become a little more egalitarian, people need to be more honest though.

From one standpoint, most of what I'm actually doing with this thread is a matter of listening for subtext I can honestly make sense of. ASD is more of a nascent precondition than a foolproof alternative method of interpreting reality, though it just so happens to be both at times.

Maybe I'll get some takeout rellenos & horchata later now that I think about it. That would definitely distract me from these austere circumstances.

Not that I'm convinced there exactly was a point to my thread in any conventional sense. Martianprincess already mentioned the elusive truth that I don't really need reasons for reconciling with a weird love life. I think figuring my life out is a question of learning to communicate better more than it's a matter of erasing every single mistake.

Not that people talking about the concept of all this being over for me isn't disturbing...

It's not over for anyone.

Some people have been deeply hurt, and they are just expressing pain the only way they know how.

I love horchata

I think the quarantine is still in the middle of rearranging our thoughts enough for everyone to finally chill out again. I think a lot of people regardless of thought patterns already scarcely knew how to express anything. I was already seriously confused & isolating as a result before that became the norm.

I've slowly realized that I have to become more expressive again just the same as everyone. Internalizing too much has clearly been unsustainable for me.
