You're right llrrrpp, I can't please everyone all the time, it's impossible. But...I can definitely do more right now to prevent people from hating me.
In real life I don't have many problems with people, mostly because I don't interact with people. We don't talk, so we can't get into arguments. I don't say anything so I can't hurt the others' feelings.
Online things get tricky. With my lack of social skills, disinhibition, and lack of physical cues, things can get ugly. Misunderstandings abound.
I think the number one thing that gets me into trouble is my disinhibition online. That combined with my almost constant need for online attention equals trouble. The more upset I am, the more attention I crave and the more provocative my posts become. I have to learn to stop the cycle.
> I doubt you have autism, since you're so verbal
I agree I'm pretty verbal online, but you should have seen me in real life. I was zoned out! I was in my own little world. I barely said anything when we got together. I barely listened as well. I dunno...I wonder sometimes...but you're probably right, I'm probably not autistic.
