I am pretty good at pretending to be normal in real life. for example I just responded to a job offer I got for a wonderful job and i feel disgusted with myself for how I wrote the email. it was written fairly well, I just feel like a terrible person for acting normal when really in my mind I am very fucked up piece of shit that should be killed. IIN?

    Every one else already said it we all have to learn to adapt to the situaitons were in thinking no one else is doing it is your only issue and its not a very big one.

    I feel bad that you put yourself thru so much pain over things that you probly have no control over. I feel that way about even actual pedos becos as with any gender thing or orientation thing we don't choose them only what we do about them. That doesn't mean I can excuse a pedo for what they really do but I can feel sadness for them for the thing they have to try to live with it can't be an easy thing to do.

    I think you could lighten up on yourself and I hope you find a way to do it its not an easy thing but no one deserves your forgiveness more than you do.

    We all have to pretend sometimes. Some of us are nuttier than others.

    One more good blow to the frontal lobe and I think I could become a full blown sociopath. That's something to look forward to.

      Well I had made a post about it earlier and it was reported, if that's any indication. Don't really feel like writing it out again as people don't read it anyway

            You aren't a pedophile. I think your OCD has led you to become obsessed with the idea, and your attachment to video game characters that are depicted as underaged has given you grounds to allow your obsession to spiral.

            The definition of pedophelia is pretty straightforward. It's a sexual attraction to prepubescent children. You don't seem to suffer from this, as I've seen you express an overall lack of desire for any sexual contact whatsoever.

            Having said that, it's very obvious that due to your Aspergers and OCD, that you struggle quite a bit with defining what constitutes appropriate behavior when interacting with other people, including children. Even though you are, by definition, not suffering from pedophelia, you could still do damage working with children because of problems arising from your limited grasp on what is appropriate and acceptable behavior.

            You might benefit from some counseling, which might help you learn exercises and tools to help you evaluate your behavior and decide if it is appropriate or not.

            You are not a bad person who deserves to die. You have a disorder that makes it difficult for you to make decisions about what is and isn't ok, and it's up to you to decide to proactively compensate for that by putting in the extra effort to learn how, and that may include getting some help for your problem.

              Wow, thank you very much for taking the time to write this, it's really helpful. I feel bad it had to be you because you are one the nice/coolest people on this site, and I'm really embarrassed you had to know all this as you are one of only people who's ever been nice to me here. i know it's really annoying to people that i always ask stuff like this but its just on my mind which is also annoying.

              its a good point you make that i won't be good at the work due to the social ineptitude. i feel that way as well and its depressing, i think people are just being nice by not saying anything. but interacting with people isnt my main task so thats good just every now and then i have to talk with children and truthfully i have no idea how to. but they are ok due to children not being judgmental which is nice but also can be bad when someone should be judged.

              i have done counselling but i am too embarrassed to tell anyone irl about all this stuff so it never really gets anywhere. i will try to go again. thank you for the reply, i really apreciate it, and i hope you are doing well..you are always a thoughtful& understanding person

    We all do some pretending. Who would like anyone of us if they knew the real us? That's part of the beauty of the internet. We can be whomever we want to be instead of who we are. It's the great equalizer!
