I have realized what my new passion is.  
I have become obsessed with socializing.

^ Wht that person said.
There's no such thing as trying to hard to socialize. If you really set your mind to it, you'll get better.

It's been my obsession for as long as I've known myself. No wonder, since it's always been my obstacle in life. I've become such an expert that people come to me for advice, when I'm the one with the poor social skills.

Funny how this term is used all over the place, don't see us turning round & calling Nts Obsessed about socializing, going out, football, lining up outside a concert hall waiting to buy tickets about the only time they do stand in line for hours is when they need tickets...
Obsession or you just trying to 1 side negotiate... |

Yeah Im the same. All night I dream about people, there are many NTs in my dreams, but I seem to have no problems interacting with them.
But, all night I sit in bars and restaruants with people, or climb mountains with them, or climb sand dunes to find people gathered at the top.
Then I wake up and Im alone, all day, in my own world. Unless I meet up wiith an aspie.
Strangely my interests are always related to people, like psychology.
Im like a social butterfly with no wings. Or legs for that matter.

I know what your saying as I have over learned so well how to act the part, I can only relax and be really happy in my own space, where I can be my true self and of course on forums such as this...
I have almost become to good at giving advice, but the NT's still do not really understand me!

Haha it's funny you say that... I was always the advice person. I could always tell when people were into each other and what they were thinking and stuff, even though when it came to me I would never, ever know when someone was flirting or liked me. I guess it stems from years and years of being on the outside looking in and observing people, trying to work out how to interact like an NT.
