Wow. So sorry Desprate. Sometimes it can be so difficult to see new messages. I hope your flight went ok! 14 hours sounds pretty brutal...
I am really glad you found this site :) You should know that you're not alone. It can be very difficult to find others in our everyday lives, so thank God for the internet :) I agree!
14 years is a long, long time. I certainly know this. You've seemed to manage ok. I hope we can both experience what it's like to enjoy a crowd and not feel self conscious or embarrassed, among other things...
