Greetings,
What has having an NT partner got to do with being a minority?
If someone from an ethnic minority marries outside their group it dosent mean theyre not still part of that minority does it? |

| Greetings, I must admit I am somewhat skeptical about just how much something lke this can help. I find that every new social situation leaves me clueless about what I'm supposed to do.

Been meaning to say - you seem familiar Kitsune.
I guess we have probably been around the same areas of the Were community at some point.

| Greetings, Thats exactly the kind of thing I was trying to describe. I find funerals particularly hard. I've been to a few where I wasnt particularly close to the person but just went out of respect.

| Greetings, I decided not to post this in teh emotion thread because it refers to a slightly different subject. One of the biggest problems I have with the NT perception of things is this supposesed lack of caring about other peoples feelings. I would say it is very much the opposite. I remember thin... |
