This is sort of an extension of a past post about me not having a GF. Here I go........
----
All my life, I've had people compare me to Jerry Sandusky or Casey Anthony all because of my social awkwardness. My friends are few and far in between, and this has gotten me desperate like the Desperate Housewives.

It's taken a toll on me, at 25. I am wondering if I am ever going to get going in my social life, if ever. I sometimes dream I go to a public place and ione person yells "AAH! JERRY SANDUSKY!" or "AAH! CASEY ANTHONY!" and they all evacuate the place I am in, leaving myself there.

I've had friendships lost because of how I am sometimes (a tad obsessive, but not enough to be considered stalker-like)...... and now my only wish is that I were gone from this world. :(

Yes, I haven't had the time to get to them, however.

I am so upbeat most of the time, but sometimes such worries get to me....

What she wrote.
I would make the time to try to go a group and meet other people who might share some of your concerns and challenges. If you surround yourself with people who are kind, and don't allow anyone to treat you badly, you can start feeling more positive about who you are. The world doesn't need you to be just like everyone else.

Unless you've actually raped or murdered one or more children, I think you're in a good position to disregard those sentiments.

In fact, you're probably in a good position to question the sanity and/or intellect of your naysayers.

I've never molested ANYONE nor murdered my own son/daughter; in fact, regarding the latter, I have no children yet nor am I married.

In addition: I am getting the impression that girls are NOT friendzoning me; some are putting bounties on my head for my elimination.

Does anybody want to be my friend, I wonder? Not just on here, but elsewhere. I know of a few people that are willing to stay with me in good times and bad, though; there is hope for me there, I guess....... *sobs*

Just want to thank everyone here on these forums for giving me a place to be heard, to an extent. You all mean a lot to me, on that note.
