Fair enough. That reply answered my question to my satisfaction.

Ok, now NEW question... Why do you people have problems mixing with the masses.

From what I can tell, for the most part, you all seem pretty cool.

I'm a computer geek. I still go to parties, get drunk, get laid...

I think some of you need to relax a bit.

Oh I posted some pictures on my website of the Halloween party I just went to. I snapped a photo of some chicks kissing.... Mmmmmmmmmmmm lesbians.... Actually these 2 chicks weren't anything special, but cool none the less...

I can tell you my situation. As I've stated numerous times, I just moved here to AZ a few months ago. I don't know anybody here my age.... i mean, not anybody. Back in school, I was very social. I went to parties, dragged people to parties, got drunk, got laid, relaxed. It became easy in an environment like the dorms where hudreds of guys are stuck in rather close living proximity to each other.
Now, I feel like a complete dork going to a bar or club or event alone. I'm the wierdo sitting alone in the corner smoking a cigarette and drinking a beer. If I had one friend here, I would be out everywhere meeting people. It's that first person that's the toughest.

As for the homosexuality question (very well answered by Michael), another factor is that a lot of us didn't fit in quite right through middle school (and some high school) and were called names like 'fag' because kids that age aren't real creative. It gets burned in pretty well, and it has to be dealt with eventually.

i have no problem 'mixing with the masses' as you call it, jim. well, except for that negative cash flow issue, but that still doesn't prevent me from socializing when i want to.

i may not go out every weekend and party hard and get drunk and get laid, but that's not fun to me anyway. i hang out with friends, have fun, be social, and when i want to, i stay home and relax.

as far as trying a homosexual experience, i did somewhat. enough to find out that there was absolutely nothing whatsoever there, and that was all. i really only tried it to see if kissing/touching a girl could turn me on. it didn't. it felt like i was kissing the back of my own hand.

anyway, if there's anything that influences me to not go out as much, it's that guys go to parties and get drunk and want to either get laid or see a show. that gets real fuckin tired, real fuckin fast. so yeah, anyway, if you'd like to continue to knock me because i don't party every weekend, you know how to reach me.

oh, and to answer another part of your questioning, what i talk about on here is virtually no different from what i talk about with people in real life. so i don't think my posts here are any indication of repressed sexuality that i'm not expressing in the real world. can't speak for everyone, but that is true for me.

um, that's pretty much all i have to say i guess.

That basically sums up my problem. It's too hard for me to relax, to lose control and do something more spontaneous. I'm rather high on anxiety, and I tend to worry about all the ways in which things could go wrong so much that it keeps me from ever really relaxing.

Take dancing, for example. The only times that I really do any dancing are when: I am in a group where I know everyone well, I am in a group where I don't know anyone, I am feeling completely comfortable, or I am under a whole lot of stress. In anything short of these extreme situations, I just can't seem to relax. I'm sure alchohol could go a long way towards relaxing me, but I don't want to be the kind of person who feels that he can fit in only when he is drunk.

Yeah, we should all paypal Michael a buck, so he can afford the five bucks to get into a frat party somewhere. Just go get lit. Your friends will understand, and make sure you get back to your bed, hold your hair back when you puke, then take wonderful incriminating pictures that you'll laugh at 4 years later. There may not be a lot to it for most folks, but it's definitely worth it to fuck off just once. The most stuck up people I knew in college had a ton of fun when I dragged them to a party.

you know what feels even better than puking? NOT GETTING THAT FUCKIN DRUNK IN THE FIRST PLACE.

oh, and drinkin till you puke isn't really economical either. so take this like, 30$ worth of drinks, pour them right in the toilet. cause you're never going to digest them anyway.

damn. a few drinks, a nice buzz... that's all well and good. but drinkin till you puke all over yourself and pass out in your own piss? wow. can i be that cool? please? [/sarcasm]

Wow. It's good to see that you all have such concern for my well-being...

It isn't that I've never been able to "let go," as you say. For instance, I had one time last year when I was doing college visits, staying overnight, and decided early on in one visit that I was not going to come to this particular college. So then my host insists on taking me to a dance / frat party, and having quite literally never done this sort of dancing before I was just standing around, rather uncomfortable. And then it hits me: I'm never coming back here again. I'm never going to see any of these people again. If I want to learn to dance, this would be a good time. And thus I discovered that I am capable of dancing without everyone stopping to point and laugh. A good feeling, certainly. And then when I was at a school dance with all of my friends later, I felt comfortable enough to actually do some dancing.

As for the getting completely drunk business, I think I will pass on that. As I explained above, I can, with sufficient effort, "let loose" without the aid of any "social lubricant." I have nothing wrong with drinking socially in moderation, but I have no intention of risking dying of alchohol poisoning, getting arrested, or drowning in my own vomit. For some reason that just isn't my idea of fun.
