What's something you weren't super excited out that you pretended to be excited about because everyone else was excited about it?

    I don't think that has ever happened and it's one reason people "just don't get me"...Olympics, Easter, Pink in concert...

    I'm really excited about other things instead.

    ooh, that's a really great answer. I fell into that category during college. I liked it but didn't understand the obsession/hype.

    I’m not that type of person. It is really hard for me to get excited about things I should be excited about, let alone faking it.

    High school reunions, if I haven't spoken to you in 20 years, it's because I don't want to :D

    I agree with this

    I agree with you there! Same with FB, etc. If I have to join FB just to talk to someone who's supposedly cllose to me, why bother?

    At this point, those have been replaced by reading the obituaries for me.

    Agreed. I've never even been back to my hometown much less go to a high school reunion.

    My birthday. I hate it. I’m not saying there are a bunch of people excited about it, but there’s an expectation that I’m supposed to be excited about it and want to party it up. I’m not and I don’t.

    Well excitement doesn't always mean what's traditionally positive, I am celebrating mine as being a year closer to my death!

    Sorry I forget that many don't understand, what being a cripple entails when I type but I am glad, that they don't!
