I definitely will miss you if you go because you do post intelligent and engaging posts.

My heart does go out to you because you are in some dire straights financially. It sucks. When I was first starting out even if I wasn't... it felt the same. I get angry every time I feel put in that box again.

There are plenty of times I feel I don't belong here but, what choice do I have? Not a lot of places left on the internet and zero real life friends to be had.

I admit, you are one of the few people on here who clearly knows just what to say to me when I am feeling down.

Your comment on my other thread really cheered me up. Thanks.

You are coming at this all wrong. If you are empty like me, then you won’t feel compassion unless you are showered with it, and to get to that point (if at all) you have to curtail your antisocial lashing out. You(we) have to solicit compassion by first handing it out in droves, and telling people what you know they are looking to hear, not what we think they need to hear. I shouldn’t be this honest in public but, whatever. What you are expressing here in this post is your own emptiness, and the seething hatred toward neurotypical people for the rich emotional life they live. A hatred and simultaneous jealousy for that which you are incapable of experiencing. Ever. It’s a physical impossibility. (If you are truly empty like myself) If I am wrong here, then I apologize profusely for my gross misinterpretation. What we can experience is cognitive compassion and cognitive understanding of emotion to such a degree that we can “feel” it. This process is a give and take and requires understanding of what others are going through and a control of our natural thought process/reactions to perceived slights. You want to talk more with someone who understands, hit me up. Otherwise, good luck.

attentionThis is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.
