    Aspergers and Marijuana

    I no longer use marijuana, however I do feel that it has helped me learn to better cope with some of my symptoms, become more giving and empathetic and learn how to socialize properly. I am now pursuing work and feel that - were it not for marijuana - I would not have any real ability to survive...

    How much time do you spend with friends?

    Whenever I'm with friends I usually spend as much time with them as possible, unless they get negative on me. If it's one of my "True Friends" (of which I have three), I'll see them through anything, even if I have to step away for a minute because the negativity gets to be too much.

    Do women with Asperger's have more chance of a relationship than men with Asperger's?

    Re: Do women with Asperger's have more chance of a relationship than men with Asperge Kicker, if you come back in, I'd like you to take into consideration that the figures I pointed out were assuming that the only factors which came into play were how evolution effects peoples' choices and the...

    Do women with Asperger's have more chance of a relationship than men with Asperger's?

    Re: Do women with Asperger's have more chance of a relationship than men with Asperge Kicker, I believe the idea in the topic of 'evolution' of this thread, is that we, as humans, are designed to pick out an evolutionary advantageous mate. Since this is true, and since females are - by cultural...

    Do women with Asperger's have more chance of a relationship than men with Asperger's?

    Re: Do women with Asperger's have more chance of a relationship than men with Asperge I agree with your stance entirely. That being said, without any confidence your chances drop in having a mate of any nature, whether she have Asperger's or not. Confidence is the number-one factor in a...

    Who Has Any Phobias, and Subsequently Any Obsessions/Compulsions With Them?

    I typically wait until I'm last in a queue (though I typically call it a line, given I'm across the pond from you), and I'm nearly as careful with the food I eat and air I breathe. When using a public restroom - which I avoid like the plague - I hold my breath for the entire duration. Since I...

    Neurological differences in social behavior

    Good day, friends, I was thinking about some of my not-so-NT behaviors and was realizing that my social disconnect extends further than just not understanding peoples' feelings and the like. For example, when I'm talking about a person I see in front of me and they have something on their...

    Kailey

    As strange as it is, when you say that sort of thing to a girl, they often distance themselves from you, especially if you're the sort which is often perceived as being weird. In my experience, half the time "I want to just be friends" means, "I need time away because that's not appealing to me...

    Hello everyone; Aspie from Oregon here to express himself.

    Hello everyone, Sorry to be redundant. I'm here looking for a place that allows me to be myself in a manner which I cannot in society. A place that will accept me for who I am and won't judge me because I prefer the electronic devices I build to most human beings. I know I'm strange and I...
