We can relate and all. We could make friends with the folks at work and continue to keep a connection with the folks that we were friends with before we knew we were well you know- us but it's difficult because it just sort of opens up the door to a lot of questions if we were to tell them "what" we were.

"We" want the relationship or friendship with another person but then yes, we do also happen to want a great sense of space between the other folk. It's just another strange paradox that we happen to have. Ourselves have kind of come to the conclusion of being alright with being alone when we're older because of the oddity that we are. Perhaps your others might not be able to fill in the humanely void that might come from being able to see and touch another physical person but it does happen to work slightly well for us. Suppose it's just going to be one of those thigns where there's never really going to be a clear answer since the only ones that can answer that are you guys. Just know that a trust issue isn't the most uncommon thing for the folks that happen to have D.I.D. because we're familiar with it. Maybe we're rambling?

From all this we can say that we want it and then we don't want it. Hope that you can come to peace with knowing what you and the others would like however.
