| With all my ranting an bitching about how much my dad pisses me off, why don't I just start a permanent thread here (or in a more appropriate place if the administer moves this) dedicated to just bitching about what he does to me. That way all of you on the forum board can see just how much of an a... |

I didn't know that you're not supposed to "question" someone higher in the hierarchy or they'll think you're trying to place yourself at their same level... |

| cube, the grammar of the metaphor has been simplified for "everyday use". The correct wording would have to be: "You can't both have eaten your cake and still have it whole". In my native language (Spanish) we say: "You can't both have your pig whole and the coins in your hand", meaning you can eit... |

| We can't have the cake and eat it too. You're either relations-clueless or you're not. We can't control how our Aspieness will make things turn out. Eg: I had a boyfriend once whom all my friends had shown no interest in flirting with because they were aware how very out of their league he was. He ... |

I dont feel emotionally present while I am trying to speak like an NT I feel sort of robotic. I prefer to sort of mix NT skills I have learned with weirdness, wordpl... |

| I've always thought the point to conversation was passing on information. If I were to meet up with a person I could go days without speaking them online, for the reason of keeping information from them that I would tell them when I met up with them.

| School has GREATLY contributed to my strong hatred and distrust of people. Seriously, the sh** I had to endure as a child/teenager has caused me to despise (with a burning passion) just about everyone except my family and the few good friends that I do have. And because of all that I went through, ... |
