Miss, I can totally and utterly relate with the trigger of a social event. I am glad you shared that post. It's so difficult being in a situation and feeling so alien to it all.

Miss, I feel for you, I honestly do and I understand.

Can I just ask, and I not sure you feel same but do those situations make you feel unsafe? What I mean is…when I at social event, I feel like an alien, plus, nowhere to run and nowhere to hide. That's what I mean about unsafe. Plus, when drinking away to make myself more sociable I end up crying…nearly every single time. I know I am a freak.

I am in my thirties also, well, the wrong side of 35! You know a bit about me by now anyway Miss! I am in relationship 16yrs but it doesn't feel like a relationship anymore…it feels like he is caring for me and he has said that too.

Oh, and another thing about what you said about feeling like a teenager trying to interact etc. I cried reading that because I feel that too…I often think I am part of the 'Peter Pan Gang'.

It is so frustrating that I in a totally different timezone to you guys.
