The reasons that I ramble on about my special interests, here at WP, are because my parents used to disapprove of me talking about them all the time, between the ages, 6 and 14. I've never really talked to my parents about much of anything, since I was 14, as a result.
My peers also gave me a really hard time, when I was 10, going 11, when I was just starting Grade 5. I've just sort of shut up, and kept to myself, from Grades 5 to 12, due to a fear of slipping, and talking about those interests.
Everybody got annoyed at me, during those years. I didn't feel that it was safe, for me to be alive. I was always shaking on the inside, always afraid, that a sentence about whatever interest would slip out.
I've even recently told my mum that I'm quiet at her place, because it's all been said, before, (to her, about my interest that came back, with a vengeance).
I ask that you don't get annoyed at my posting habits, please.
