I have a little problem, I recently learned that I am a Highly Sensitive Person, and that HPS people are sensitive to many things and I began to wonder, how can I find a girl who would be willing to deal with someone as sensitive as I am. Please help, any advice is welcome!!

A female reader, anonymous, writes (2 July 2008):

Just in case you don't already know about them, there are two books by Elaine Aron that could help you deal with this: "The Highly Sensitive Person" and "The Highly Sensitive Person in Love." She covers a heck of a lot of ground about everything from finding people and mates to being with partners who are also highly sensitive or who are not also highly sensitive, and issues about sex. She's the one who did the primary original research about HSPs. Hope that helps.

no_issues agony auntWouldn't "HPS" mean "Highly Person Sensitive"?

Porn teaches us that the best way to meet girls is get right down to it and not waste any time. In addition, from studying porn wisdom we learn that if one is really turned on, turned off, or generally agitated by something, it's best to say so right away. After all, in porn nobody ever gets anything without asking for it.

ChiRaven agony auntKeep authoritative resources regarding your condition handy so that people you relate to will have something they can refer to that will give a good explanation of your condition. HSP syndrome has been stigmatized by a lot of negative stereotyping, so you've got a lot to overcome. You'll have to do your own research to come up with something that is succinct yet presented in such a way that it can be recognized as reliable by anyone who will take the time to look it over.

Beyond that it's just a matter of finding someone who is willing to deal with a minor but nevertheless important aspect of yourself that can be both a disability and an asset at the same time.

Good hunting.
