May I have a link to the chat by chance, please?

You're not wrong. In hindsight, I have been deeply examining and analyzing past events; his personality, my personality, the circumstances, etc. I have so far narrowed it down to two things: feeling undeserving of receiving love, and a severe fear of helplessness (or aligning myself with things...

Thanks. You're very kind. I wish that so much, too.

Being dependent. I don't mean for it to happen, but it always does. And then I find myself panicking about what I'm going to do and how I'm going to survive now that this person is suddenly gone. I want very desperately to be independent, to avoid all that havoc at the end (and it's a major...

In answer to the original question: I have a personality disorder and attachment issues.  I am currently internally beating the ever living snot out of myself because I had about the best friend anyone could ever wish for (no, he was not a perfect human being, but he had a golden heart and was...

I'm in the Bob Lee and Speak-volumes boat. I'm deeply introverted (though, when I get comfortable with someone I can seem quite extroverted - with that particular person), quiet; quirky. I prefer quality over quantity. This is apparently at odds with what is currently socially acceptable. I...

Hey, AshesToAshes! *waves* Welcome! :)

Welcome to the forum, tobex! :)

Greetings, S907. Welcome to the forum. :)

I'm very inspired reading through this thread. I've been nervously debating meetup.com for a while now.

Well, I thought I had one (friend) up until a couple of months ago. Oops. Foiled again.

As someone I know likes to answer this question: Yes.

I like "emotional tourist" as well. "Zen of Bad Experience" is also very catchy. :D This type sets my teeth on edge, too. It's almost like the child who is extra nice to the parent. "Okay, what do you want this time?" That's just my cynical opinion based on personal experience and observation...

You're not alone. I'm also in that boat (I have only have one friend to my name, and I think he feels pity for me more than anything else; that is my colored-thought assessment), except with a cat instead of a dog. Best wishes that things improve for you soon. That pendulum has to swing...

Hi, Kristy, and welcome! :) I also really love your user name. I've always loved willow trees. :)

Reading this made me so ridiculously happy (being an asexual myself). Good luck! :D

Hey, Wuido. I'm also so sorry to hear all you're going through. I, like you, also have much going on with me psychologically - and also physically. It's a lot to struggle through, isn't it? I completely agree with apetlover: one day at a time. One moment, even. You've come this far. Hang in...

Hi, Cosmicblue. Love your nick! Really pretty. :) Welcome to the board. :)

Howdy! Warm welcome to you! :)

Hi there, Sowie. Nice to meet you. :) What kind of science do you like? It's a subject I find fascinating also. Glad you found the board! :)
