I don't know how to talk about my feelings. I see them all in my head but when ever I get frustrated because I want to express what I feel, nothing I say is it. I get frustrated and spout sounds that resemble those I imagine would produce a sack full of cats and dogs, and somehow that feels as if it made sense, even more than those things I say when explaining my feelings or at least trying to. what is wrong with me?

Feelings are overrated anyway and i just can't see the point of expressing them. It leads nowhere, doesn't make a plot, let alone sense. Why bothering?

Well judging from what you've written in your post, I would say that you are feeling upset and frustrated that you are unable to express your feelings. Whenever you try, you might as well be making a bunch of animal noises, and in a way you feel as if said animal noises are a closer description than what you actually said. Am I in the ballpark? If yes then you did a fine job in explaining your current emotional state.

But what if I've longed for it in a manner such as that of Data from Star Trek?
I mean I'd like to be more like Spock but I really cannot seem to help it.

I am actually smiling, hey at least I can explain how it feels no to be able to either know nor explain what I feel - huh?, that's rather paradoxical.
Its like I am in the outside looking in, I have just to get some emotional spyglass and I am all set. Now where do they sell those, does anyone think they sell them at the WP Aspie gift shop?. All kidding aside introspective psychoanalysis has somewhat helped in the past, I guess I'll just have to decide when the countless hours will be worth it.

In this case, join a social networking site. You will be confronted with more feelings than you ever wanted. :wink:

Not exactly what I was going for, I want to feel not to share

And that's exactly what's going to happen there -- you will feel a lot, from astonishment to shock, to incredulity, to sheer bewilderment -- social networking sites are like a zoo, but instead of animals they exhibit NT's. And it's even better than a soap opera since you can interact with them.
