    The Stigma of Self-Diagnosis

    well ive never heard those things said to anyone but im sure people have encountered that. i can admit to being wary of self-diagnoses because i wonder how reliable they are, but the same could be said about psychologists overdiagnosing a particular condition as well. besides, who are other...

    Sensitive Topic Are Aspies prone to be emotionally abused?

    the answer is simple...only if we allow ourselves to be. having aspergers doesn't cause people to emotionally abuse you in and of itself....people treat you how you allow them to treat you.

    Need advice- aspie roommate and her bf

    Autism/AS - NT love, is it possible?

    well you need to stop projecting your past experiences with women onto new ones u meet. i understand how hard it is to let go of bad memories but you are ruining your chances with potentially nice and accepting women. i dont know types are the 'females you want' but you may be focusing too much...

    Trying to handle an obsession with relationships

    its good that you recognize that u arent ready for a relationship...im sure it was hard to cut off female friends. why dont u try making/hanging out with male friends more often than female friends. i think too much female companionship tempts u to start thinking of relationships again. id say...
