Would I like Christmas? Would I like holidays in general? What about spending time at home, or eating with family ,or going out with them? As is, I barely feel attached to these people. Scratch that, I don't feel attached to them at all. Like I'm an automaton when I'm at home with them

I'd probably not say "sorry" as much in real life. I'd also probably not get stressed over really minor mistakes or issues. Would probably have been properly socialized since I wouldn't have gone to Catholic school. Basically I think I'd be a few years ahead of where I am now

I hope alternate universe Mike isn't taking things for granted lol

A really annoying thing about Christmas is I always ask for nothing, because whatever they get me my parents hold over my head like a fucking noose. They're the type to think giving someone a gift means you owe them

I also consider myself aromantic since I've never really had a crush on anyone, and I definitely haven't ever fallen in love either. Therapists I've talked to have said that it could be trauma-based due to not really being shown love properly as a child, but it may be because of having ASD as well, and now I probably won't ever know.

There's also the possibility that I'd be in a worse spot in life currently due to having a really easy childhood, so I wouldn't change it, but it would be interesting to know.

Yeah, guessing what might've been might not even be great for the mind tbh - chances are you had cards dealt and by now you've probably moved forward quite a bit anyways

Know plenty of boomers who live with regret tbh, makes them real mad the rest of their lives >_>

Yo, this topic really speaks to me.

Sometimes I figure I wouldnt be so jaded if the first human interactions I had were actually trustworthy and rewarding.

Good topic, TC.
