My class, is well, I don't make enemies, but I don't really care for about 50% of them. Although I would love to see how everyone was doing after 20 years or so.

Yeah, once we're at the point where we all have families and such, I wouldn't mind going. My stepdad went to his 35-year high school reunion a few years ago and had a great time.

But while everyone is still at the point of comparing resumes or salaries or career trajectories or whatever, I'm like, so not dealing with that bullshit.

Ugh 'networking' so much bullshit in attempts at getting work now. It used to be easier, my dad went to college, became a joiners apprentice, asked for a job and the foreman or whatever said aye. Now I've do all this shite like multiple stage interviews, background checks for simple as tits jobs. I just fucking hate it. Them you get people who think you're a nazi pedo because you don't constantly spout rubbish on twitter or Facebook.

Hi I'm fab and that's why I drink.

Yeah, I feel like in some ways, it's gotten easier to find a job if you're socially-awkward, and in many, many more ways, it's worse.

And my name is Rose and I'm a socially-anxious Aspie mess and this is also why I drink.

But really with the networking thing here, I'm sick of people coming up with it as a bullshit excuse for obsessively checking up on what people they used to go to school with are doing.

Worse for me. I'm too anti-social for this modern world.

Rose is a lovely name :3

I don't even have LinkedIn. I'll give it a miss.

Hi I'm Stevie and I drink because the world is a hopeless place and I want that fact to be funny to me instead of depressing.

@maria; I'm glad you like my name! :)

I just don't know some days how I'm going to survive my 20s. I feel like I have too many problems, and too little money and attractive people who want to fuck me.

I drink because it allows me to pretend for a short while that I fit in with society, that I am not some anxious, nervous Aspie fucker. The buzz wears off and I'm back to myself, a right moody bastard.

who want to fuck me.

Hey.

You and I should perform in the act of coitus if that would mutually beneficial to each party.

@maria; Wait, you're an Aspie too? Represent!

Re: the second part of your post, there's kind of the second largest body of water on the planet in the way.

I'm not that great of a swimmer. ;-)

@maria; Well, it is because did you see what I wrote about being broke?

Believe me, if I could hop continents on a whim, I would have many more times in my life.

Yeah. To be fair like 80% of the frequent posters on the forums have it :p

Like, have a diagnosis or just suspect it?

I only recent found out that I legit had it, that I didn't just suspect it.

Wow, this is now two times on this thread that I've had some sort of sexual/romantic proposition.

Why can't I be as attractive offline as I am online? :p

The one close friend I have from high school drives me freaking crazy, and she totally has one of those crazy-competitive, status-obsessed mentalities I can't stand.

She was really surprised I didn't have a LinkedIn. I'm like, "because no one uses that in my field? And I have no need to 'network' with people in our high school who are doing completely different things?"

I mean, there's a reason I've defriended 90% of those people on Facebook over the past five years.

well it's not that i want to go, but it's more like I spent half my time at one school, and half my time at another

so I'm like which one do I go to? then again idk if i'll be able to go to either being broke

>_>

The one you graduated from? Unless you were only there a short while, then the one where you were there the longest.
ahh okay. the one i finished at was for like one year, while the other was 3 years

HOWEVER, do you remember that chick I told you about? she's at the reunion for the three year school so I'm probably gonna be avoiding her

You should, that chick is crazypants! I'm so sorry you have to deal with that crap.

About your Aspie comment, I'm including both. I had known for a while then I got it checked out. I also have Depression and Generalised Anxiety Disorder. Go me.

Gurl, am urs.

I think it's because we get to know a person better without how they look being too important, it's easier to separate personality and looks on here.

Did I? When was this?

The "marry me?" comment.

Oh yeah I remember doing that. I now see that you said "sexual/romantic" proposition.

So anyway about that, have you made a decision yet? =P
