Just cuz i could relate to it so much! I mean, i always thought i knew what other people meant, now im in a phase where i realize i really do not, and it is hard to get it. If you just go by the first sentence or two, yes, you think you get it; any more than that, and im like wtf where are they coming from??

As for the brutal honesty in general, i dont know if you meant on the avpd (which i always read as avoir du poids) but thats why they say this is a support website - we do try to say things as positively as possible. Its good practice. Probably a lot of us are here because we were raised by people being negative at us all the time. I know i was. And i didnt even realize i was acting that out and that people didnt like me because of it. And here i am such a sweet person! Effin a, ya know?

Eta - i thought your intro was fine. It really displayed your intelligence, which i liked, and where your head is at, which i also liked that it did.
