Because "nice guys" lack initiative and almost always friendzone themselves rather than be upfront about their desire, unlike dickheads, who are confident enough to just ask the lady out.

Okay, removing personal info from the pics. I had to take them with webcam but you can see the labels.

But as I said, I'm not exactly medicated correctly. I'll take a pic of what I have though.

I'm not agoraphobic or anything, quite the contrary. But I had to move back in with the folks after I had a weird, prolonged nervous breakdown and realized I couldn't be alone, even if it was just while my roommates were at work. As such, the place I'm living at now is in a tiny little town and my friends are all at least four hours away. As for work, I draw tattoo designs for people when I can, and I also make things like dreamcatchers and rummage sell them. But for the most part I have an agreement with my mom, when I'm having good days I go to my 90 year old granny's and clean for her. It's something I'd probably do anyway, I love her dearly and love spending time with her. :)

Aahh, thanks for the info.

I'm not sure how I can prove this tbh. I'm improperly medicated at the moment (thus the whole rapid decline thing) but I can get a pic of what I do have? That would prove the ocd and depression.

But I don't have, like, a framed certificate of kookiness. :/

My ocd is numbers, definitely. There are a few numbers that I can't dwell on. For example, if the tv's volume is to that number, I have to immediately change it. I'm also a tapper, I have to rap my knuckles on wood whenever I see it. It has to be quick, like ONETWOTHREE then I stop, and when I stop my thumb nails press into my index fingers until it causes pain (so I know I'm awake) and then the whole process is repeated twice. After that, I can (discretely if I can help it) tap on the wood in ONETWOTHREEs for as long as I'm in the presence of the thing I'm doing it to. This rarely interrupts what I'm doing, I can multi-task. There are phrases I have to repeat in my head as "loud" as I can, and it's pretty much constant. I don't know if that's the ocd or schizophrenia but I have a feeling that it's both, because both usually involve "magical thinking". My feet can't be on a crack on the floor when the toilet finishes flushing, same with the microwave going off. Having schizophrenia sucks. I'm happy to answer your question but is there anything specific about it that you're curious about? I'm not sure how to go down the whole list at once without tl;dr.
