Hmmm... Well I have read and enjoyed some yaoi but it really depends. This is difficult to put Into words but I will work on general ideas. For the most part I like the ones with sweeter relationships and lees violent sex... That I do not like, especially when the uke is unaware of what is happening or essentially raped. Unfortunately this is a common theme that I have notice. Same with the not willing but body is willing sort of theme. Morally I find this wrong and yet it is some sort of turn on. Tmi I'm sure but this is hard to explain really. ^^ this is purely a fantasy and in my opinion should never be put into practice.... That being said the ones that I do like, minus a few outliers, have what I consider to be interesting stories like Sekaichi Hatsukoi or Junjou Romantica. However, I still have many qualms with the two I listed even though I like them! Culturally speaking this concept is treated very differently and this I am constantly thrown into conflict over the genre. Like other pornography it is just fulfilling a fantasy, which is fine as long as that does not come into play in reality and hurt someone emotionally or physically. I could say more but I will refrain for now. If you would like to talk more or share stuff message me. I'm not a huge yaoi fan by any means so my conversation on that topic may be limited but I am willing to share. Later ~Colleen

Yeah. I agree with both Otakunewbie and Amezuki on this one. Since I have had similar problems in my past (and somewhat in my present life) I continue to work on my social skills, communicating with people on even a very basic level. Since I have worked both in the food industry and retail for small part time jobs I have become adept at small talk, which is a great way to begin. Every once in awhile I still make the dumb awkward comment, but you have to embrace it and go with the flow, sometimes it will lead to an engaging conversation. But don't fling yourself into it! Small baby steps. Build on your experiences. Life is full of nasty potholes that are unavoidable, just gotta ride through them! (cheesy analogy but hey, its how I think ^^) Anyway that is my two cents reiterating essentially everything said above. LOL XD
