I call my son, who is only three years behind you, kid or kiddo. I have people I work around (not the office, but the things I cover) who call me kiddo. To them, I am. I'm probably 18 years younger than he is. someone will always use such words. It doesn't make it true (such as when someone sayd to a group of males and females, "see ya, guys." Does that change the gender of the women? Hardly. sticks and stones, and get some social anxiety help.
Chris..... For some time I have not responded to any of your posts, directly to you. Well KID, I don't know why you insist on posting all your CHILDISH poo-poo, on the "Mens Issues"forum. You haven't figured out what a man is. I don't think any of us want to hear about you jacking off in the BOYS room, between classes. Have you noticed that most of the responses to your posts are from the ladies. I think its the mothers feeling to protect the young and helpless. But there comes a time even the mothers leave the helpless out for the wolfs. I'll see if the powers to be will start a new forum "Immature , soft ,whiny, Kiddos" and you could be the moderator. God knows you know the subject well.
i don't mind being a kid. i'm sure when i'm old and gray i'll look back on this "childlike" times and be sad they are over.
I thought they already had a new forum called "The Whiners". It is for endless whining. I have to agree with you, being call a kid has nothing to do with being a man. Oh, Chris. After reading most of your topics posted in this forum the only advice I have for you is GET OVER IT.
my cousin, whos 23 calls me kiddo all the time. my mom often does, my dad sometimes does too. im 21. its not done to hurt me, its just what they call me, theyre older than me. its a term of endearment. get over yourself chris, the world isnt out to stomp all over you, i doubt anyone thinks about how their actions affet you to the degree that you obsess over tehm
Now thats not very fair! A new forum titled aspergers might be more appropriate incase you hadnt already noticed.
Well all: I guess I got a rise out of you. ripple: If you look back in the posts, I am the one who did the research on Aspergers. Maybe a aspergers forum is a good idea, it could be his forum. Have you seen his last thread, about a conversation with the fellow he shares a taxi with? When he asked why he was so unpopular the other young man said,"because its always about you ". There you have it.........
Chris im 20 and im still a boy in alot of ways, if you try and rush these things you tend to fuck them up, take a little time to grow into your boots. I dont get called 'kid' or 'kiddo' myself but then again i like to talk with people instead of throwing temper tantrums.
Bull shit, if your so fine then why do you have nothing to talk about except how pissed off you are? No your not fine, your some hard man, wannabe, whiney, kid... so why don't you just face it, accept it and change it? or do you like being so angry and upset all the time?
Bullshit. You are one of the most defensive, paranoid, angry people I've ever come across, in real life or online. If you had even the faintest clue of what you look like making all of these posts about people "patronizing" you by calling you "kid" or giving you dirty looks or whatever else, you'd change your attitude pretty damn quick. I'm sorry, my goal isn't to be mean or to make you feel bad or anything like that, but someone has to slap some sense into you... half of me thinks you are troll, and the other half says, "seek help NOW." You said earlier you were "just fine the way [you] are." If that's the case, then why are you crying out so desperately for help on these forums?
reading back on several 1661 threads, I came to the conclusion that it is C who is patronising and then being offended when the "chickens come home to roost." You cannot be about with an arrogant (and extereme withdrawal is arrogance, too) and condencending attitude, thinking all the time that everything is about you (and in your posts it's all about you and your discomfort with people going about and living their lives normally) and not have soem negativity return. I do think you are blowing so many things out of proportion, and if you had anger management, less would bother you. You are in huge denial about what the problem is and who owns the problem. If someone is loud, in a cefeteria line it is NOT your problem. The moment will end and there's a great chance you won't see that person for weeks. In uni, I read a great paprable: A monk and the master were travelling to a distant monastery. They came to a river where a woman was having difficulty crosing. The Master hoists her onto his shoulder and the trio cross. He placed the woman on the ground on the other side and walked away without a word. The monk, however was mortified. In their tradition, a Master touching a woman was a grave sin of impurity. He mused on this for the rest of the day, trying to decide how to ask the Master about it. At length, he simply blurted it out: "Master, how could you touch a woman like that, it is wrong." the Master, who had been meditating as he walked truly did not know what the monk meant. "What woman?" he asked. "The one at the river this morning," the monk replied. "You carried her across the water." "Ah, said the Master. "Have you been carrying her ever since?" Chris, quit carrying people.
Amen... a lot of Chris's posts have some validity, and I often see where he's coming from, but it's always blown way out of proportion. I used to be more like Chris, always reading so much stuff into everything, thinking every little glance means that someone either likes me or doesn't like me. Oh, and I used to be obsessed with the concept of "being normal." hahaha. Then I started living in REALITY... no one is "normal," no one is out to get you OR out to help you... everyone is just living, doing the best they can however they see fit. Often I don't agree with the choices of others, but there's nothing I can do. Life's so much easier when you just go with the flow and try to enjoy it as much as possible without analyzing everything to the smallest detail all the time.
No but focusing on SOMETHING other than the evils of the social world is a good start. Obviously he isn't enjoying the social side of things right now, so putting his energy into something productive seems like a nice alternative. Anything to take his mind off all of this crap.
