love where i live

I live in Baltimore. I love it. It is an awesome place to live. My avoidant personality stems from emotional abuse, is my best bet. Shame its so rare, no wonder I didn't put together I had it before. (I honestly just always thought I, individually, was different from other people). I wish more people knew about it so I wouldn't feel like a freak if I ever told anyone I had it (which I probably will always be too embarrassed to do, so I'll be stuck this way forever )

On a different note, does anyone want to be facebook friends? Sounds creepy, (I guess?) but I would be kind of interested to see the pages of other avoidants, because I feel like if anyone looked at my life they would have no idea. Let me know maybe we can arrange it obiously not so publicly on the forum

I would like it, but the problem I have is that I've said so many personal things on here. I don't often like to share a pic with people after they know all that stuff.

I feel the same way about telling people, i'm scared that they'll just say i'm making it up and there's no such thing like that or think i'm a freak.

I might, i'll think about it. You're not gonna stalk me or anything like that are you?

I think everyone here probably hates having photos taken, i can't stand looking at my own photo and i especially hate school photographers when they keep telling you to tilt your head then raise it up and smile.
