    Studying for until late 20s to the detriment of dating/social life

    Yet another passive-aggressive reply?

    Studying for until late 20s to the detriment of dating/social life

    To me this seems like a completely different issue. I must be imagining things then, because it seems completely different in my eyes.

    Studying for until late 20s to the detriment of dating/social life

    It does not feel at all to me to be the same thing as my other threads. Unless I am seeing something completely different to what others are seeing?

    Nice passive-aggressiveness. Maybe San Francisco's style is spreading to other parts of the world.

    Studying for until late 20s to the detriment of dating/social life

    I think that my situation is a bit known here, so I will skip it. Anyway I spent most of my life, since age 4 or 5 up to age 28 studying hard, to the detriment of both my dating and social life. If you can call it that, because usually I have had no dating nor social life. In high school I was...

    What are your feelings about Valentine's Day?

    The worst day of the year. Based on my other threads I am sure that one can figure out why. I pretend that 14 February does not exist.

    Unable to tolerate casual touching (dating)

    When my parents hug me I usually allow it, but not really reciprocate. When extended family try to hug or do the two kisses on the cheek I usually withdraw. Since I did this often since I was a boy, I am known for this and extended family usually consider me a weirdo. When I do go on dates...

    Unable to tolerate casual touching (dating)

    Well it depends. I kind of have it in my head that everyone can be a potential pickpocket, robber or someone who just has bad intentions towards me. Or that they just want to screw me over in some way. When I was 12, I had to go to this school dance because it was the last year of primary...

    Unable to tolerate casual touching (dating)

    Well I do not understand any of these neurotypical "dances". Nor can I do literal dancing, e.g. tango, waltz, etc. My ideal would be if I were told robotically that someone were going to touch me soon, so that I could prepare and not be shocked. Of course, no one would put up with this though.

    Unable to tolerate casual touching (dating)

    I see, I had never thought of that before. I think that lately I have been increasingly paranoid and suspicious of other people, so it does not help. I suppose that in the rare cases that I do go on dates, I already start from a suspicious and paranoid mindset. By default, I do not trust her...

    Unable to tolerate casual touching (dating)

    Of course I want friends, but my quirks make it quite hard, plus I do not live in a conducive environment. Same goes for dating relationships. At the back of my mind I also have suspicions that I am being touched to be made fun of or humiliated. My instant reactions about withdrawing...

    Unable to tolerate casual touching (dating)

    If you mean non-romantic touch, there was one time during my holiday a few weeks ago when I was on a train. The woman who sat next to me suddenly tapped me on the shoulder and asked how to use the electrical socket on the table. Since I was reading, I got surprised and I immediately jumped...

    Unable to tolerate casual touching (dating)

    When someone touches me, my first instinct is to think that the person is a pickpocket or some other type. If it is a date situation I usually think to myself, "What the f*ck?". In those other instances like in high school when a girl would try to touch my hand, I would usually jump in surprise...

    Virginity problem running in the family

    I have never seen that show. At first I thought that you meant Frankenstein as in the zombie. Because some people have told me that before. Just focussing on academics however gets lonely very quickly.
