Under Construction - MHWA Retreat

Yeah... we're kindred uhh... whatever-the-fuck. Personally, I like your style. I get that people think it's creepy for people to like... not care about happy moments and sad things and so forth, but it is what it is. You know?

People show you a pic of their new baby and you're thinking... yeah, looks like a baby. I had someone flip shit on me once for questioning how long it would be before the "happy couple" got divorced on the way back from a wedding. They're like, "OMG! How would you feel if someone said that about you and Nik!?" I'd think it was totally normal, since over half of all marriages in the U.S. end in divorce. It's just logical. And it's super uncomfortable when a close friend or family member dies, and other people who didn't know them get all teary FOR me... and I'm just like... yeah, it's a bummer.

I've gotten quite used to not going anywhere unless it's sure to be sparse on people. My husband hates people... hates being around them in any way. Seems totally normal to me. What's inconvenient is hating people but being an extrovert. I don't actually like being around people... but I'm miserable if I'm not around people. Go figure.

Anyway, you might as well write about it, Shaye. Like... why not explore how you tick? It's easier to tweak things if you know why you do what you do.
