    Men & Women Please Answer...

    I think you missed the point a bit some of us other women were trying to make. We aren't saying "Women can only be in the kitchen and their talents shouldn't exceed cooking, cleaning and raising children". Well I wasn't. I'm just annoyed that if I find my calling in life is to raise some...

    Living with an Aspie

    I was re reading the five languages of love today and I thought of one that might be good for you. I was reading a story of a young couple having trouble ... gary chapman recommended they write down the four things that they most wanted their partner to do to make them feel special. Maybe...

    Living with an Aspie

    when I first found out about my asperger's my husband found an article that was really negative for the long term survival of an Aspie-NT relationship. I swear he almost broke us up over it. this was a research article by the way, not just some opinion or something. It was about fifty pages...

    Living with an Aspie

    If you asked my husband he would point out that I'm not too good at housework. I find it really hard to see the house work that needs doing. I've read that aspies can be like that. The worse thing for me is I'm unemployed so I'm supposed to be keeping the house clean ... Aspies I've read can...

    What are the saddest, most tragic Movie/TV scenes that have made you cry, shed tears?

    Re: What are the saddest, most tragic Movie/TV scenes that have made you cry, shed te Up made me tear up a bit ... that was such a wonderful film and I loved it heaps. And Brave made me tear up a little at the end. Gotta love pixar movies (and some of dreamworks aren't too bad). Then again...

    Re: What are the saddest, most tragic Movie/TV scenes that have made you cry, shed te I'm not every emotional in films. Usually animal ones that get me. Black Beauty is a very sad film. I cried at the end of the recent les miserables ... the story was average but the acting sold it. You...

    I want your music and Autism youtube videos for AC playlists

    I've never thought about doing videos but I'll give it a shot. I do AMV videos ... would they count for the music? My husband is always bugging me to put them on youtube because he thinks they are great but I've always been wary because of the whole copy right thing (personally I think they...

    aspies and facebook

    and that's the point ... why do we care? Most of us live in societies where honor isn't an issue so why care what others think. They can think what they like if they don't have direct influence over your life ie old class mate. You can block them on facebook if they get out of hand and forget...

    I think I have AS but my therapist insists I have a myriad of other issues

    sounds like your therapist doesn't know much about aspies tbh. Aspergers can manifest in a number of ways. a lot of people with aspergers often have other things going on as well. Like I have pretty bad depression and anxiety issues which are typically a result of people being jerks over my...

    The Underemployment and Unemployment Thread

    my husband barely finished high school i.e. he scraped through to pass. First one in his family to finish. He now works in a mine and earns $140,000 a year. I got a bachelors degree in IT and I can't get a job. I'm too over qualified for fast food and its not exactly the right bit of paper...

    The Underemployment and Unemployment Thread

    yeah I know what you mean about the small companies. The best job I had ever was when I worked with a manager who had been a manager at a previous job. So I had worked for him once in another company, he moved on and I needed another job so I asked him and I got another job with him at another...

    feelings of disconnect

    yeah ... my old flat mate used to tell me that whole "who else will put up with you?" line all the time. He was in love with me. But I wasn't with him. I sort of used to believe it. But now that I reflect on life I realize that is not really the case. I mean I'm living with my husband now...

    Ｐｅｏｐｌｅ　Ｔｈｉｎｋ　Ｉ?ｍ　Ｒｕｄｅ

    my mum is always at me about this. Makes me so mad. mostly because she nit picks things and harasses me endlessly about them. Unfortunately no matter how your aspie-ness manifests ... this is just something that happens because the bit of our brain that deals with social interaction doesn't...

    feelings of disconnect

    I think I didn't want to go back to my husband because I was missing my family. But I have this weird thing with my family. I do better at relationships with them when we have distance between us. And my family is pretty mentally stuffed up. When I can claim to be the most mentally stable in...

    Could a job in Psychology be considered 'impossible' for an Aspie?

    just tell patients your an aspie up front. Be honest. Aspies won't look you in the eye anyway so if you end up working with people on the spectrum then the eye contact thing is probably irrelevant lol. You can fake eye contact by looking at someone's face in general or by looking at another...
