Once you can be honest with someone I know that I'm better than average at communicating emotions but nobody seems to become my friend. They never talk to me or invite me to stuff or say yes when I invite them to stuff so nothing ever happens.

I can be pretty shy, myself, though I know I have it easier than you do, since I think you said that you also have your autism to contend with (sorry if I'm mixing you up with someone else).

Usually I meet new friends through other friends. Because often people who are my friends are interested in many of the same things as I am, and their friends are also interested in these things.

It's not always easy, though, so don't think you're the only one who has difficulties there. It's more normal than you might think.

I can never tell who is my friend. I tend to hang out with a lot of people when I can afford booze or cigarettes or various drugs, but nobody when I'm broke. Though I usually don't ask because I feel it's embarrassing or awkward to ask to hang out when you don't have anything to offer, so it's really confusing.

In The Netherlands hairdressers are expensive. My sister pays €50,- to get her hair done. €35,- is quite a good price really. I get my hair washed and cut.. and that's it.

Oh no, he totally would make a good argument if I'd have taken advantage of my situation.

However, I've gone to work at low-paying jobs, financed my University with the same opportunities as white people have had in terms of grants and loans, and I pulled up by the bootstraps with my family because we were a united family while I was going to college; as well as if I wasn't thinking on starting my own business, I wasn't studying computer security, and I wasn't a nice person overall and haven't championed myself for immigrant rights on the internet and real life nor have had a lot of people to inspire.

I wonder what the fuck has he done for other people or for himself.

I'm pretty chill about aesthetics and apparel. I tend to find feminity and androgyny more attractive than masculinity, but it kind of is a 'anything goes' basis for me. It's like I'm very picky about who I find attractive, but I don't really find that many consistent trends. Apparel wise all that matters is that it looks good on them.

Personality wise I just want someone who's smart, funny, and caring. I don't want to date just anyone who has those traits, but I tend to find myself attracted to people who I'd consider such.

Oh, and being older and rich is a turn on.

They have to be pro-LGBT rights and not a bigot in general. I have no tolerance for that.

Calling yourself pansexual is the sexy thing to do, obviously. However, despite this cheap mockery I do find the whole concept of pansexuality to be rather elegant and civilized.

Usually hairdressers tend to establish their own private salons if they want more money :p

So true. Cast off the limitations of the past and its dogmatic idiocies; be who you want to be and love without fear but with mutual responsibility.
