as well as the fact I was suicidal at one point I guess

We're basically the same person. I'm asexual (but I like romance, go figure), and I have a lot of attachment issues due to probably a personality disorder or autism. And that's before getting into the obsessive-compulsive disorder, which is really awful and which I've never gotten treated.

I wasn't diagnosed until I was 19, despite showing obvious symptoms all my life in hindsight.

Bro chill, keep your blood pressure low it was just a question. In fact, now I’m more curious as to whether or not anyone actually has online dated on this site, at least publicly

There have been at least a couple of NS marriages. I'll let those folks speak up here if they so choose. That would certainly be pretty comfortably outside the norm.

I prefer to drink straight alcohol over mixed drinks, a lot of people find that weird. Oh and that I find coffee absolutely disgusting. As far as things I can do, I'm really good at remembering oddly specific details. Like the exact number of causalities in a famous battle or something.

What's the appeal of straight alcohol over mixed drinks? I mean, you can't tell me it's a matter of how it tastes, some mixed drinks taste like sex on your tastebuds, drinking shots of vodka back to back tastes like chugging rubbing alcohol.

Would it be the fact that it just gets you fucked up faster?

You've got it down pat. Well that, and I actually think alcohol tastes awful. So I'd rather do a couple quick shots and be drunk than slowly sip one drink.

More power to you, then. Unless I'm at a rowdy party, I prefer to just sip on mixed drinks/beer to avoid getting hammered. Hangovers aren't worth it unless it's a special occasion.

Most spirits are less than 50% alcohol by weight. But if you mean 100% ethanol ... and you prefer that ... you are indeed out of the norm.

Not ROF, but there's times where I prefer to drink straight alcohol. My reasoning is that it's not as unhealthy and it gets me drunk faster. Mixed drinks are much better in regards to taste, though... :p

SAT worldwide? Sure, but it is mostly an American thing. So there is few people outside the US that take one.
