    Bullying - Asssertiveness vs. Aggression - Good vs Evil

    I will stand up to anyone who is physically aggressive with me. Thankfully anyone who has ever challenged me physically has always backed down as soon as I let them know I'm just waiting for them to throw the first punch. I remember one guy had a little crowd watching as he kept going on about...

    Coffee /Tea...

    I don't drink either. I've had coffee one time when I was around 9 and thought it was disgusting. I also don't have a need for it to wake me up like some people say they need it for. I don't have anything against tea, but I just don't drink that either.

    Have to wear clean clothes in bed - normal or cause for concern?

    I've been doing the same type of thing for the last couple of years so I hope it isn't cause for concern. Anytime that I sit anywhere outside of the house, I will not wear those clothes to sit down on my favorite chair or lay down in bed.

    What's your "Happy Place"?

    1 on 1 situations with a few select people or Alone watching youtube, browsing the internet, or playing video games (in Multiplayer games I like playing with a group of 3 or 4 others).

    what is your stim?

    The original 3DS XL has a certain texture to it that feels so smooth to me. I don't own that particular 3DS, but my friend wanted me to try an hour of her game and after I was done, the whole time we were talking afterwards I kept rubbing her 3DS. Anytime she shows me anything on her 3DS she...

    Keeping Friends

    That last part is what I think people just don't get. Some (a lot?) people seem to think you need to keep making new friends to feel happy. I'm not one of those people.

    Keeping Friends

    I don't have a lot of friends and I don't keep a lot of friends, but I think it's more on my part than their part. I can really like hanging out with someone and like talking to them, but suddenly I just stop talking to them less and less and I really do not know why, I just do.

    Trusting others

    That's a good question. I think if person after person after person screws you over, then you have proven the obvious (that there are bad people in the world), but you have also proven that you're a bad judge of character if nearly everybody is screwing you over. In my case, I typically treat...

    WHAT IS YOUR ONE BIG TURNOFF WHEN LOOKING FOR A PARTNER?

    Yep. I HATE the smell of cigarettes and the main reason I don't want someone to hit me is because I don't wanna have to hit back.

    Why Is it a Symptom When I Do It?

    I'm just realizing that a lot of people must have the same issue with not knowing streets. To this day when I drive, I use gps on my phone to get there and then if I have to get there multiple times, I just follow the exact same route. When someone tells me about something happening on *insert...

    Trusting others

    I found a quote that sums up my thinking about trust: "It's not that you don't trust other people, it's just that you trust yourself more". I figure that I am not the only trustworthy person on the planet, but my issue is I can never know who can really be trusted. The only fact is I KNOW that...

    Dealing with insults

    I'm actually far more likely to end up hurting someone's feelings with my response to an insult than I am to be hurt by an insult.

    WHAT IS YOUR ONE BIG TURNOFF WHEN LOOKING FOR A PARTNER?

    Smoking cigarettes. there is a girl who I guess to outsiders would say "friendzoned" me because we are friends and don't date/have sex. The truth is though every since she started smoking (she didn't when I met her), I would NEVER date her now even if she wanted to date me. I continue to be...
