Hi Bexstar I am so new here aswell!
It's great to hear that you found somewhere you can be comfortable, I grew up in a rural town they're great places to live if you don't mind the lack of activities all that much and not easily bored.
I completely understand the difficulties of trying to deal with other people, especially the daunting task of being in any proximity of other people, the dense urban jungle or the city is not really a healthy place when you're terrified by your fellow humans daily!. I bet your dog is one of the greatest treasures in your life! I absolutely love when I get to see my mothers cats, no fear or hesitations, just grab and hug them until they get frustrated with me, but I just can't help it.
I'm sadden to hear that summer Rose, I truly do hope the good times out number the bad now, people often misunderstand so much.
I'm sure she'll have met or will meet some awesome people along the way, some of my friends did not understand why I didn't want to do a lot of things. But I met better friends in their place, who understood quickly that just because I don't like crowds, affection ect, and go all quiet or weird for unexplained reasons doesn't mean I didn't enjoy their company.
I really do hope she already found more understanding and patient people.
My mom has a shorthair and a longhair Chihuahua, these days their getting to be such old girls but they surprise us with how spree and excited they get anytime anyone pays attention, not to mention they love to try to ward off anything that comes near the house that they do not know. Mind you, the snippy little bark is not all that intimidating, but the hearts there and that's what counts, right?
I do hope that both your daughter and bex there are accomplishing the goals they both intend to get to!
