Besides online? Nothing. I’ve graduated college, and neither of the friends I made there have responded to my texts since I’ve graduated. I have a part-time job with people at least twice my age, so nothing there. I’m there to work anyway, not socialize. I’m completely alone, and I’m getting tired o... |

We can’t all be blessed with your gifts. I have a debilitating learning disability that led me to struggle through college, although I graduated. I’m very good at a few things, like grammar and spelling, but I never knew how to make my essays long enough. I had extreme struggles with math because of... |

I often look at drivers if I see their license plate is out of state. I can’t really explain why, though. |

My last year doing it was at age 14. I printed out a map of the neighborhood and drew the route I would take. I went alone, so there were no distractions. I got so much candy. It was a worthy finale. |

I’m fat because I’m extremely sensitive to taste, and most healthy food is overpowering to me in taste, smell, and/or texture. I want to lose weight more than anything, but it’s hard when so many things that are healthy are intolerable for me. |

I am strongly in support of the Oxford Comma. I worked on newspapers for seven years and had to leave them out, and it tore me up inside. |

I take antidepressants and anti-seizure medications, and I still have a high sex drive. I’ve also considered eventually getting medication to reduce libido. I think it would be a godsend. |

Junior high was horrible, high school was amazing, and college was adequate. High school definitely was the best years of my life. I was able to have a friend group, which I couldn’t figure out how to replicate in college. I still keep in touch with a friend from high school. I’ve tried to contact m... |
