... one day you may well indeed ask for help for yourself or others. question is though, who would believe you?
Your condition leads you to play games. if you know you are doing it and seemingly you do, you play a game where you have the real potential to damage your life and end up disconnected from others - not because of your condition/behaviors, but simply because generally speaking, peoples don't suffer manipulators and abusers around them... and I use the word abuser carefully because your mischevious games are a form of abuse upon those who come in to your circle of influence. condition is one thing, personal integrity another. hiding behind 'Meh' and 'it's my condition, I can't help it' won't wash. your power to influence will diminish as more people become aware of how you deliberately manipulate. your call, your life. you may not recognize loneliness, but you may well relate to no social interactions or a life of continual facade.
You make a fair point. In the 'real / non Internet' world, I am quite different from what you perceive here. I play with straight dice, unless I'm winding someone up. But if I do wind someone up, and they don't twig straight away, I will pull them up and explain the wind up. Like I said, I'm not malicious, I just don't suffer fools gladly.Your condition leads you to play games. if you know you are doing it and seemingly you do, you play a game where you have the real potential to damage your life and end up disconnected from others - not because of your condition/behaviors, but simply because generally speaking, peoples don't suffer manipulators and abusers around them... and I use the word abuser carefully because your mischevious games are a form of abuse upon those who come in to your circle of influence. condition is one thing, personal integrity another. hiding behind 'Meh' and 'it's my condition, I can't help it' won't wash. your power to influence will diminish as more people become aware of how you deliberately manipulate. your call, your life. you may not recognize loneliness, but you may well relate to no social interactions or a life of continual facade.

Yet your friends and family gave up on you long ago, by your own admission.Gassing Station | The Lounge | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
