It really just depends. Sometimes all I can do is just smile and nod, but depending on the situation, I can open up easier. |

| Heh, my dislike is simple, having both selective mutism (Yeah, I have the inability to talk to people I don't know, viscious circle much?) and aspie syndrome I can't talk when I want to and have an inabillity to voice my true thoughts. I often find it irritating that I cannot express my own intelli... |

| I hate when people ask me what I'm doing when I'm talking on the phone to them. I always reply, "Talking to you, obviously." Then they get annoyed. I hate talking on the phone as it is.

| I usually don't have a problem with handshakes, just physical contact in general, but once my teacher extended his hand and I just kind of stared at it for a few moments. He gave me a confused look and I finally realized that I was supposed to shake it! I felt like such an idiot. |

| People that know you like to touch you. I have always been the type to not want to violate other people's personal space. I seem to take up more space than most people, even when I am talking with friends. Proxemics is something I have never been comfortable with. Women, if they know you, will brea... |

| I would have liked to be Japanese as well... Samurai are friggin awesome! :P I always joke that I was secretly swapped at birth with an Asian family.
