While I used to be really bad with even numbers I still have issues to this day. I am much more comfortable with even numbers of things, like how many times I chew my food, how many pieces of candy I eat, and so on.

Does anyone else have even number problems??

I have the problem with showering twice and then washing my hands twice.

I guess kind of, I find it easier to be able to easily pull apart a number and being an even number makes me feel a bit more comfterble, some of the odd numbers realy confuse me as they are a bit of a halfway and dont belong. But I have lately got into some which are divisible of three being ok as an order like 3 6 9 12 and a bit of 15 but that is pushing it a little. My biggest problem I had in math was numbers being negative as there is always a part of me that refuses to accept a negative number. Oh and fives are a fav in certain circumsenses. If I am counting my candy like you said I often put them into bundles, and they might be the different waves I plan on eating them, for odds I have figured of either eating the odd one first and pretend it didnt count or I count it as a bonus with the last.

Yes, especially when I was younger I was fixated on even numbers and preferred to do things in even numbers.

I'm sure many people had to have their TV's volume level at an even number, or odd, if you're... odd.

Ack! Yes, to the point where if my wife was driving (had the remote) and she changed the volume I would have to have her change it ever so slightly to a number I could handle. I solved that by changing to a setup that has no display for volume level.

Oh yes. In my inner world, all of the characters who live there absolutely have to be organized into pairs (kinda like Noah's Ark). It's so that when they appear in my mind, there are always two of them at a time, and when I add them all up, the total amount will always be an even number.

I dislike imaginary numbers cause their existence is based entirely on the mind of the mathemetician and their reality tends to be rather subjective.

I prefer to have the volume of my TV set to a square number, i.e. 4, 9, 16 or 25. I like multiples of ten, too.

I like to do things an odd number of times, so that if I do something twice I want to do it one more time. I also like to have TVs and radios on a volume that's an odd number. Weirdly, my mom who's NT likes to have even numbers. Her liking evens might have something to do with me liking odds.

It trips me more so when the max volume is 11.

I like odd #s because one number always gets left out and in charge...
