I am absolutely TERRIFIED of dancing anywhere near people. I start having panic attacks if people ask me to dance. A girl at a bar one time kept asking me to dance, I kept telling her, "No, I do not dance," and she started to drag me out to the floor. I started freaking out and I ran away from her and grabbed my beer and hid in a shadowy corner for the next hour, receiving worried text messages from the friends I went with, whimpering like a hungry infant.

Late to the party here, but I'm the exact same way dude. In fact several scenarios very similar to that have happened to me. I think this is one of the reasons I do not have a girlfriend.

When I was 2 years old I was running through the church my family went to and ran into the corner of a very sharp table, ending up with me getting 14 stitches over my left eye. I am an atheist now, and I'm not sure if its partly because of this. Related to that, when I was in 4th grade I told another student at my elementary school that I was an atheist, which ended in half of the kids there ostracizing me for the rest of the year, a call to the principle's office (very religious town, public school), and several student's parents sending me bibles via their annoyed kids.

Also, along with several other people here, I was a very late talker. Apparently I didn't actually talk until I was 3 and a half, up until that point I just pointed and grunted. Then when I did talk it was apparently in full sentences, with perfect diction and an excellent vocabulary. My family says that I liked to say really long words. Also from my own observation of family home videos when I was a kid I had an absurdly high speaking voice. It was squeaky in fact. Which is weird because I was quite the little butterball turkey.

ackblom12:
I count. An old nervous habit I've never seen a reason to break. I know for a fact this isn't necessarily a uncommon thing but it tends to amuse friends when I know exactly how many steps a building has because I either have been there before and counted on the way up or I can give a good estimate of how many tiles are in the ceiling of a restaurant because I did the math wile waiting to be seated. Hell, I know we have 14 steps in our stair well, 15 if you count the step down from the foorway to the porch and 19 if you count the stairs on the porch and I still count them every single time I use them.

phooey:

WriterofAllWrongs:
I was actually born in Germany on a US military base.

I can juggle.

I have a unibrow that I pluck fervently because no no no.
