I'm not emotionally stable enough yet for them.
But in all other ways I'm perfect.
Great to know I can fool all my friends into thinking I'm ok, just a little wierd, and repressed, and anal retentive, and stiff, and socially unaware, and this wonderful woman I don't know tells me:
1) I'm a great, intelligent person who looks like I would make friends easily because I do all the 'social connection' tricks.
2) But, it sounds like there's a lot of shit happened with my family that I need to work through before they're willing to put a weapon in my hands.
I know my friends mean well, but sometimes it's nice to talk to some one who tells me what they like about me. Someone who tells me I'm good instead of picking out what's wrong. Someone who says the positive before 'constructive criticism' - it's not constructive unless you tell me what I don't need to change. Someone who doesn't assume that, because I'm not complaining, that everything's OK.
