| I'm self-absorbed and kind of self-centered but I'm super polite and accomodating/pushover due to my social anxiety. This, mostly. I don't have anyone else in my life to concern myself with outside of my intermediate family, so I almost feel as if I don't have a choice but to be self-centered.... |

| I really loathe this hostility. I find it SO annoying and stupid when people have the arseache with eachother and ''are not speaking''. When I have a meltdown, it unsettles everybody else in the house, and then my mother suddenly stops speaking to me, and I HATE that. I am over the meltdown, I unde... |

| I've been in situations to where I've froze up when girls would touch me, because I wouldn't know what to do afterwards. I'd think to myself, Do I go over, and grasp her arms while I kiss her? Do I just touch her back? Do I say something sexual afterwards? My mind would have continuous thoughts runn... |

We arent social enough to be in those places and if we by a miracle ended in one we wouldnt know what to do. ive been there and done that enough to know that something has to be wrong with ... |

I'm not on that phase right now with my 'special interests', so I won't have anything new for quite sometime, but ... |

| Not much of an NBA fan, but as a big hockey fan, I can say that the NHL Lockout in 2004-2005 was pretty awful. Resulted in the cancellation of the entire season. For the sake of basketball fans everywhere, I certainly hope there is a better outcome than what hockey fans had to endure seven years ag... |

However, when I did start to catch up with my language issues, I was way ahead of my peers with my language skills (I was spelling l... |

| I dont worry much what people think of me, but maybe its because I've given up / grown less insecure over years. But I do feel that my social anxiety issues are deeply rooted in an inability to know what is the socially acceptable or right thing to do in certain situations. I've always felt that I ... |
