Ever since i was a kid, I've had a problem with my emotions. Whenever i heard somebody laugh, i would assume they were laughing AT me and so i would get mad cause i thought they were being mean and i still have an issue with this today so i dont make jokes or anything or purposely try to make people laugh. And today, i dont smile much idk why but i just dont. and lately, idk why either, but ive been feeling like hollow inside. Like i dont get happy for much of anything anymore .Even the things i used to be passionate about and get happy for, now I just feel kind of like, meh. i dont really feel emotions and i cant figure out the reason. nothing traumatic has happened to me, ive had a great childhood and stuff so its not an event. but ive always been like this. and lately over the summer i stay up all night and then in the morning i sleep a ton (which i will anyway) but even if i go to bed at a reasonable time, i just dont wanna get up. Like if i could, i'd spend literally every freaking waking moment in bed, except for like, necessary things like eating and stuff. Also, for a while now, i always eat. i dont feel full almost ever so i just kinda eat whatever whenever i feel hungry. I dont feel hungry or full ever. Basically i feel emotionless unless im empathizing with my friends if something sad happens. Im like a robot and i want to be able to feel happy and normal. Thanks for any advice. Nothing sarcastic please because this is serious to me.

I don't think anythings wrong with her and i'm not complaining at all , I'm just curious. Ps ive had her for almost a year now. Why does she

- Hide whenever somebody in my family walks near her cage (theres only 3 people in my family) but she'll just walk up to my dog when he goes near her cage and touch noses with him

- try to bite me if i touch her side or put my finger near her chest (like under her chin. she'll let me pet it for a few seconds then reach down and try to bite me)

- When i pet her for a few minutes and we're sitting on on the couch or something she'll face me and put her front paws on the towel (my mom insists i have a towel when she's roaming and stuff for any messes) and kind of lay flat on her belly so shes kinda looking like how somebody leans forward and puts their hands under their chin like if they're daydreaming or something

- when i sit down with her she always eats the towel and i have to poke her nose a little to get her to stop

- i bought her some wooden chew toys and blocks but she never used them

- if i'm laying down on my side with her on the floor or on my bed or the couch or something she likes to try to either cuddle up to me or crawl in my shirt and cuddle up to me in my shirt and just sit there

also for less future accidents, is there any signs she'll show if she has to pee or something? Once though she jumped back in her cage (we were on the couch) to pee and poop and then jumped back in my lap when she was done :)

So this question requires a little background story. So last year i discovered something new about myself. Basically i discovered that i dont like super close relationships. I found out when i started becoming friends with a guy and we got to a regular hanging out basis (on the bus only, but whatever) and eventually i couldnt handle it because it felt akward and uncomfortable and i never got over it and started to push him away. This happened again this year but this time i got over it and my bff went out with him. Long story short, we got talking about how it was awkward for her to be around him even though they broke up in dec. and how i was being a hypocrite because i didnt talk with him for a while but i do now and i said well im asexual (i think, based on how i dont like romance and am not interested in marriage or kids or dating etc.) and i dont do well with close relationships and we kind of argued whether i was asexual or not. I think i am because of the reasons listed prior and because i just cant do close relationships or else i'll start to push the other away and i dont know the reason for any of this. This hasnt happened with any of my girl friends.

1. Is there something wrong with me because i know this isnt normal

2. Am i really asexual or something else

3. Why did i push them away? It just got super awkward and i started seeing little pet peeves about them. So i stopped talking to them and avoided them in the halls but i couldnt really control how i felt.

My sister is my moms favorite even though she's 4 years older than me. Whenever we fight, she always pulls the puppy dog eyes and has a high (I like to call it a baby voice) voice like a 5 year old and convinces my mom she did nothing wrong and it's all my fault. She treats our dog better than me! I'm not allowed in her room and the most she ever says besides yelling to me is hi or she orders me around. We all know she's moody and we don't know why and she corrects me on everything and is always perfect. When we're at the store, she's allowed to buy anything even if it's expensive but I'm not allowed even a snack because "we have plenty of food at home" but she can have a computer, iPhone, iPad and a laptop (the new apple ones). Did I mention she got her first computer (it was a desktop) when she was 6?! She also makes fun if iur mom in a fun teasing way but when I do that I get sent to my room for being rude. She never gets in trouble and I'm always compared to her. The only thing I have she doesn't is that I'm taller and probably more athletic and tomboyish even though she's thinner. She really wants friends to hang out with which I have but even when she's happy she's rude and still can do anything but never gets in trouble. She's musical and plays the guitar and sings both badly to my opinion and blasts her music and does everything loudly while I get yelled at if my music is heard outside of my door even just a little bit!!! It's so FRUSTERATING to live with her!!!!!
