So I can understand how debilitating insecurities can be to people. I want to know other peoples insecurities to be more aware of others and connect to them better. What are your insecurities?
My parents never taught me a bunch of basic things about life assuming that they would be obvious to me because they're obvious to them. Now I have to ask questions that make me look like an autist. But then again...

Same. Looks good though.

OP Here: Can you elaborate on "a bunch of basic things" because I think I can relate on the SAME EXACT THINGS.
Also, can I ask your age?

I have a three inch erection and I’m circumcised. When I was younger, my dad used to shave me, cut my nails, trim my pubes, pop pimples on my face and back, would smell my penis to make sure it smelled nice, would do the same for my armpits, and would sometimes shower with me. This went on until I was around 16 and he would also beat me if I ever denied him. Sometimes I'll get an email from him telling me I ruined his life since I stopped talking to him. I find nudity, porn, and sex uncomfortable. Rule 34 makes me physically sick. Every weekend for the past four years, I’ve gone to the movies or taken a nap in my car and told my mom I was out with friends. I’ve also told her I’m dating a Korean girl who was in one of my university classes. When I was younger, girls at school used to hug me and random and would also tell me they loved me. Eventually I found out they would dare each other to hug guys they found especially creepy/ugly and I was a prime target. One of them also started a rumor I was stalking her because we lived on adjacent streets, after which most of my friends stopped associating with me. I read and write cheesy romance fiction. I read pic related every year around Christmas
Yeah I hope, I grew out a small beard. I’m tall and workout so at least I’m not bald and short and fat
But it’s hard to score with attractive girls. Used to pull girls easily but kinda don’t put myself out there anymore

18, as of a few days ago. Whether it be due to video games like my mother always said would be bad, or just my personality, I lack a lot of basic social skills which prevent me from communicating what I think properly. As a result, if something confuses me, most often I won't question it, or if I do I lack the drive or the words to do anything about it. I could also just be retarded and making this all up out of my head to justify my laziness. I don't know. Either way, it's simply just basic things that a person would need to know to survive on their own that I don't know, I guess. It's complicated.
Basically I feel like I'm actually not a joke extremely high functioning autistic or something

I feel like I'm super skinny so I wear sweaters all the time, I don't talk to anyone because I'm scared of publicity, I feel my dick is too small, I feel like I'm too short even though I think I'm average, I'm ugly, I'm poor, just regular stuff

OP HERE: Fuck your piece of shit "dad", and you should feel good for "ruining his life". Don't feel bad like he wants you too when you see the next email. Also, fuck bitches. I'm so sorry that fucking meat hoister successfully had an impact on your life and caused you to lose friends, but friends come and go. If they didn't know you well enough to automatically determine that you aren't a stalker, then they aren't real friends. Fuck them too.
Fuck people man. Having a little amount of REAL friends is so much better than having a bunch of "friends".
And dude, get out of that hole in ur in with ur ma. Don't lie to her, just be honest. Worst case scenario, she disowns you for being a loser lol. That sounds ridiculous so I doubt that will happen, but hey, it might, and if it does, fuck her. Her loss. What I'm saying is, you shouldn't put that much effort in impressing your mom. She doesn't care if you have friends. She should still love you regardless. (Tho Ik some moms that aren't like that.) However, If you really care what she thinks about you, just say they started doing drugs and you didn't want to be apart of that.
As for reading and writing cheesy romance fiction and reading let it snow every Christmas sounds really nice and attractive. Try not to be insecure about that :D

I’ve had fucked up teeth as well, I’m currently waiting on my braces since I’m a poorfag. Wish me luck!
Brandon Cooper
I'm fuckin weird and skinny also really dumb but I try to hide it I've embarrassed myself too many times also really pussy and weak fml I just need ONE redeeming quality and it'll all be worth it
>fat >But fairly attractive otherwise. I didn't have any confidence until I was like 20, then I realized most girls don't give a shit if you're a bit fat as long as you've got a good face and are interesting. Used to think I had a small dick too, but apparently I'm pretty well off

There's only really been one insecurity that's really held sway over my life until relatively recently and it was when I was a kid I was always picked last to be brought onto a team.
This is led to many interpersonal failings until I took a break from it all about 4 years ago.
It's really kind of crystallized in my head just how much damage formative experiences growing up can do, but unshackling myself from the behaviors that were allowed to set in from those experiences have been a continual struggle to say the least.
Jackson Turner
I have the same problems
Alexander Jackson
Just remember, it's always better to be skinny then fat. Plus being skinny is something you can easily change if you wanted
Eli Morris
I really hope it's not true. I really do.
If it is, do you live in Europe? I could probably help you out, if you wanted
Anthony Cruz
I feel the same way about my dick, what made you realize you were pretty well off?
Michael Thomas
not too biggie insecurities but they are nonetheless My 5.6 inch dick is too small and my overbite is fucking up my jawline
Dominic Watson
I'm overweight (I eat too much) and am very conscious of it. I'd rather be underweight than fat.
Nicholas Williams
>visible ribcage >mole on chin >weird voice compared to everybody else
However, I'm tall, I have a decent penis size, my hair looks great, I'm smart, so it's even.
Logan Edwards
I'm SkinnyFat. I've started eating well and lifting heavy. Been doing this for about a month. Kinda seeing results but not really. I hope it's gonna work.
Jordan Gray
5.6 is normal size. I've seen a lot of dicks (mostly soft) and they're not large on average.
William Myers
Get the mole burned off, eat/exercise more, and fake different voice.
Dylan Peterson
I'm really self conscious about my hair thinning.
Just want cool guy haircut but can't do it
Jayden Scott

Henry Sullivan
none now but it used to be body acne or pectus excavatum
Tyler Young
Bit of advice if you wanna get a mole removed, there are two ways to get it done. They can shave it off or cut it out and stitch it up. Go with option 1 trust me or else it will leave a scar that might look worse than the mole itself.
Ethan Sullivan
all of this except my dick is average and i'm 6'5
Levi Wright
The gf goes to a gym by herself and I'm worried that one of the nigger bodybuilders there might try to hook up with her. Pic related. She looks almost exactly like this.
Evan Jones
im pretty short and i used to have acne but most of all im into some weird stuff sexually
Jose Anderson
Everyone has insecurities, EVERYONE don't feel as if you are alone, you are not. Right now there is someone somewhere that wants to be in your shoes. Fuck the things you hate and double down on the things you like about yourself. Don't let insecurities get the best of you, you're gonna be 70 one day and think back to the times you were depressed about being too short, or having an average penis, or having crooked teeth and your gonna realize it was all for nothing.

Social skills are just something you learn on your own. U lrn that just by putting urself out there. I was at ur exact spot last year. My social skills were garbage and every single social encounter I had was awkward.
I realized that social skills are like every other skills and that you have to practice it a lot to get good at it. I decided just to throw myself in a schedule that involved me to be around a lot of the SAME people for as long as possible. About a year later, and my social skills have noticeably increased. I'm able to hold full conversations with girls and make them laugh. Being social gave me serious self-perspective on who I am, what cards I've been dealt in life, and how to play them correctly to get people to like me. I'm by no means slaying pussy every day, im still "socially sensitive" if ya know what I mean. My parents didn't teach me any of this.
My personal problem with my parents not teaching me basic things, is that my father was neglectful and didn't really teach me anything besides how to be quiet and respectful, as to not embarrass him in front of other people. So I guess he taught me how to be humble, but thats literally it and Im not exaggerating. My mother on the other hand taught me plenty of things in life, however not really things that i NEED to know when I'm on my own. My mothers parenting logic is to baby me until Im 18 and do everything for me, then when I turn 18, she starts smoking weed and tells me that Im an adult and should know how to do adult things like schedule appointments and grocery shopping and what not. I kid you not she trolled tf outta me lmao. I'm not going to complain tho, I appreciated the way I was treated for 18 years, she was an amazing provider. She jus kinda stopped providing when I turned 18 lol. It's sorta embarrassing when I have to ask friends how to do things like the dishes, but I just laugh it off when they get surprised that I was never taught and ask if they can show me.
