possibly just since...today? 
Who in your family, is an avoidant?
By the above "requirements" I would say:
wow, I don't think any of the directly related ones are. Actually, maybe my dad as he's aged.
How many online friends do you have that your reguarally chat with?
It varies. On average though about 1-2.
How many PM's do you receive a day?
Varies. 1 a day maybe. There have been days that exploded, but that correlates to the effort I put forth in it.
How many emails do you receive a day or week?
In a week, probably 1-5? With "forwards" it's like a couple hundred, but that doesn't count I don't think. ha The people I consider friends are mostly coworkers, so I see them daily anyways.
How many online friends have burned you?
wow....um, describe "burned". To keep from going into a negative direction, I'll just say I'm used to it and it's ok. We're all at different places of understanding.

What clique did you belong to when you were (are) in high School?
We were kind of difficult to describe. I would call it the neutral group. Everyone in it was a part of some other clique due to interests, but came to the "neutral" group for hanging out.
you talk to your stuffed animals alot as a kid?
didn't like them, so I didnt have any, so no. I was never the kind to pretend play? I couldn't, well I guess there was just too much real high stress life stuff around me to think that way?
What was/is closer to you, friends or your stuffed animals?
My mizzuno and Wilson head
What do you avoid the most?
This took some thought.....I avoid being, what I percieve to be a "burden" to others. I avoid being someone who will be seen as one to take a side. My mindset is that, "it just is what it is". That I'm here if needed, and here if I'm not. I'm the permenant spectator who thinks everything there's a lesson to be learned, and that it's going to be learned the way it's meant to be learned..without any controlling on my end. I go with the flow in other words. I'm starting to think though, that I'm kind of setting myself up for problems if I keep that "profile" in certain areas. I think it makes you too easily used as the proverbial "rug" or fall-back person. Or to one person, I can go from being beneficial to that person, to a "thorn" to avoid. It's strange when that happens because nothing on my end really changes. It seems to depend on where THAT person is at though, when honestly I've stayed the same in stances. I can say that without being egotistical, because I'm one of those people that will automatically (almost habit) apologize for something. I look to see what I couldve done wrong first, before anything else. So, with plain confidence I say... I give people too much credit sometimes.
