Wow, thanks for the responses, everyone! It's helpful to read all this. And it makes me feel less alone with it to come here and talk about it. I especially liked Vickie in Phoenix's story and Ratanddragon's statistics. :-)

Yeah, the list of qualities is a good idea. I have a hard time figuring out what I want. I posted about myself on a dating site and have trouble even figuring out how to describe myself. It's hard to describe your interests when you're feeling uninterested. But I talked to a couple of folks. Maybe I'll dare to go on a date some time.

Thanks to everyone for responding, I really appreciate it. It's hard to go about daily life never talking about this stuff, but I'm sure the folks around me have all heard it. Anyway.

Thanks, Sidony
