Actually now that I think about it...my close friends always seem to "know" and not take any of my words or actions personally. It truly is not having to say you are sorry....because you can come back later and laugh and everything seems to be resolved. They just seem to know that you didn't realize what happened. They just simply know that there was a "misunderstanding". Other people act like I do s**t on purpose (especially my mother...and prob the reason why we aren't close).

I am not sure if I "love" anyone, but I do care a lot about people. I guess in some selfish way I love those who love me.

However, hearing the word scares me. I prefer if someone truly loved me not to say it at all.

Now, that's a good pint. I guess I hadn't even considered that. I'm still thinking in terms of not having a diagnosis and, therefore, always monitoring myself so as to not be a "bad" person. (Not that having a diagnosis would mean I wouldn't have to care how I behaved or anything.) But maybe I've had lots of times when I haven't had to apologize for something because I'm loved, and yet I haven't even known anything has happened.
