| I'm American so I haven't been that exposed to Doctor Who. Of what I've seen I like Patrick Troughton the best, although his companions make me cringe a bit, especially the female one (Victoria?). I have a question that maybe some of you better acquianted with Whodom can answer: why has been virtual... |

| Most recently viewed, either in theater, TV or DVD: Superbad - I did laugh often and loughly, but I doubt I'll see it again. Way too rauchy for my usual tastes The Great New Wonderful - interesting, espeically around the the anniversary of 9/11, but not particularly great Galaxy Quest - wonderful an... |

| I don't like being touched by most people, even friends and family. The most awkward is hugging, because people who are close to you - or rather, think they're close to you - expect it. I hate hugging in most cases, and if I'm in a situation where I'm expected to hug 1) I NEVER initiate it - it has ... |

| I have ED-NOS. I don't get panicky around food. It's OTHER things that make me anxious and so trigger my ED. Food or the denial of food is how I have learned to cope with stress and anxiety, which of course is unhealthy and I've been working on this. In the past, I've gone through periods of anorexi... |

| I have an ED too. It's very misleading to define an ED by how much weight a person loses or gains. It's not about pounds at all. It's also not about what other people think is acceptable for you - one person's idea of "slender" or "fat" could in fact be an very unhealthy ideal for another person. On... |

| Joking or not, that wasn't a very helpful comment to make at my expense. I've been screwed over in similar or worse fashion by men too - actually, by comparison I'd say the male friends who've screwed me over have been vicious by comparison, since they were even more insensitive and more obsessed wi... |

| Thanks guys. Your reasurrance is very appreciated. I'm old enough and expeirenced enough to know when I'm being screwed over. God knows, I have had enough "friends" do this kind of thing to me. I just hate how I always end up feeling so vulnerable and exploited by these kinds of things. I know I can... |

| That's the rub: she's not a feeble mindeed person, really, she's not. But she's acting like one recently, and I don't know why. It's like she's letting this person (perhaps other persons as well) influence her opinion of me, because she's older and more her age (she's older than me). Yet she's known... |

| I needed someone to talk about this, and seeing it's about the one person I usually go to to talk about these sort of things, I'm in a pinch. So I'm dumping my crap here. Sorry Like many Aspies, I have gone through life either having no friends or one close friend on whom I'm perhaps a little too de... |
