Why do so many people here believe that? It strongly contradicts my experience.
Your experience is atypical because you're atypical.
Man, I've barely looked at that page since I wrote it four years ago. I live with Jess now, across the road from the other two. I can heartily recommend my brand of atypicality :-)
Good answer. I keep privately asking the same question about these sorts of things, and getting the same answer from others.
What do you mean by "many people here believe that"? Believe what? And what tells you they do believe it?
People have great difficulty verbalizing their perceptions of and beliefs about social interactions. It is not obvious to me that you two have different beliefs or experiences. More likely, you do, but it would probably take a lot of work to identify and communicate those differences.
I guess because our experience contradicts your experience.
