Diamondpphire, 22

I've always been bad at socializing thanks to a certain (NSFW) incident that occurred during my childhood leaving me with PTSD and a severe case of androphobia (fear of men) which I have only recently gotten over. I'm also a high-functioning autistic so don't take it too personally if I take awhile to respond since it's hard for me to work up the courage to talk to people online and I tend to be a bit paranoid. I decided to come here in order to try and see how well I can deal with online chatting sites by starting out with small so that I can see if I'm able to handle it or not so we'll see how long I last. Also, I have a tendency to get distracted pretty easily so I might not be on here too regularly. Anyway, more about me!I'm an incredibly empathetic person and love helping others when they're struggling with something no matter how small because I don't want them to have to suffer like I did when I was younger. Also I love to write and have written several fanfictions (although all of them are unfinished thanks to my terrible attention span) about a number of different animes and video games as well as some of my own stories. I love anime and video games (Japanese role playing games in particular) and am absolutely ADDICTED to the Tales of series. I also have two Yorkshire terriers named Sophie and Yuri (both of whom were named after characters from the aforementioned Tales of series) and a cat named Angel. I also love pretty much all animals although I'm afraid of most bugs (arachnids in particular), reptiles (except for turtles and tortoises), amphibians, and rats. I'm obsessed with Asian culture--Japanese in particular--and I'm currently working on teaching myself Japanese (although I'm working on the basics).
