I can't watch romance movies or shows without getting deeply depressed. Even shows like 'Friends' triggers me. It's such a rose tinted fabrication.

I'd agree with your rose tinted fabrication. It perhaps wouldn't make watchable T.V if it was a true representation of every day life for the common or garden Mr and Mrs Joe Bloggs.
That said Blue, I don't actually know enough people to be certain that others don't actually live their lives like that
I find I'm not triggered by such because I personally believe the script writers exaggerate or sensationalise the senarios and scenes for the screen. To make watchable T.V programmes. In my own mind I feel it isn't real so it doesn't have any effect on me when and if I watch it.
I agree 100%. I see it as fake, stuffed with fake, and with fake icing on top. My wife who is dominate NT, sees it as how we should be.... as I'm laughing my ass off, thinking she's out of her head. Geez...
"Sure I would love to Chandler, but he's not ASD, not remotely." And my wife says, "Then choose not to be ASD..." Grrr... We actually had this conversation, that is why I chimed in. She also watches "reality" shows... The bachelor, runway something??? and some other crap... I just put on the headphones and take myself out of that NON reality poop, that they are calling "reality"... Who has a messed up head in this case? : )
