    Aspies and Sarcasm

    I love sarcasm. :) Well, I love being sarcastic; but apparently I'm hopeless at picking up on others sarcasm. I didn't think I had a problem, because there are times when I do see it...but apparently those few times make up about 10% of the amount of sarcasm that people direct at me (family...

    Hypersensitivity - the eternal battle with touch

    I think I have this too, but not as often. It only really happens with very light touches around my ribs, sides and stomach. But when it does, it's really painful, like an extremely strong electric shock. Yeah, I'm sorry, but basically what AsheSkyler said.

    Do you ever cry?

    I very rarely cry. As a child for some reason I adopted the attitude that crying is weak, for those who aren't strong, etc. I still get quite impatient and uncomfortable with crying, and I'm ashamed of myself when I do cry. For me, it's what happens after about 5 months of bottling everything...

    I was asked out for the first time...

    I think it's okay now!! I'm so relieved, we had The Talk. We were texting last night, and he just brought it up with a question about "what I think about him". It threw me, but I answered honestly. And in return he told me honestly how he felt about me. I also told him quite bluntly that I need...

    What's a relationship like? (I am an Aromantic Asexual)

    Hey guys, I was wondering - how do you know whether you're asexual and aromantic? I mean as in general, how would one know? I'm asking because I suspect I am too, but I'm not certain. I've always felt disgusted by sex, but I'm not sure if that's a permanent thing or the result of what I was...

    I was asked out for the first time...

    Thanks everyone! The more I think about it, the more I realise that it's likely he thinks I want to date, and that I just can't because of my parents. I'm such an idiot. But I think things may have changed slightly - when we sat down to go over some class stuff, he sat across from me instead of...

    "Bad" people

    For me it's my psychology teacher. There's something about her that makes my skin crawl. She's always "happy" but it never seems genuine. Never gets upset. If I misbehave in class she doesn't stop smiling or threaten detention; she comes up to you and leans over you and physically gets in your...

    I was asked out for the first time...

    Sev - yes. I'm ashamed to say I didn't handle it very well. It was the first time anyone had asked me and I just.....didn't handle it well. Thanks.

    The pitfalls of praise

    I thought this was just me!!! Okay, that sounds arrogant, but I didn't know anyone else who felt like this. I hate praise, too. It frustrates and annoys me, because what can I do with it? It doesn't help me - I know I'm doing something wrong somewhere, and I'd much rather be given constructive...

    I was asked out for the first time...

    Thanks for the advice. :) Randomperson - thanks, yes truth is preferable. Scarier, but the best course of action. Unfortunately, worst case scenario is I can't do anything. He's a black belt; we actually train together, and yeah he pins me easily. but he's not a violent person, from what I've seen.

    I was asked out for the first time...

    Hi everyone. :) I don't really know how to start. About 3 days ago I was asked out for the first time (I'm 16). And now everything is going so wrong. The guy who did it is a friend - a really good one. We've known each other for about a year, but only recently have we become really good...

    Do you talk to your parents much?

    I view my parents as people I'm forced to get along with, for the benefit of the entire family and myself. If I behave well they allow me to go out, pay for things I'm unable to and are more lenient. It's apparently a cold way of thinking about it, but I get along with them because it's the...

    "Don't touch my stuff!"

    Darn that's so irritating!! The same thing happened with me: we recently shifted house and I've finally found a quiet study space in the storage room. Then my freaking siblings found it, filled it with their trash like toys, phone chargers, wrappers while messing up my books and everything!! I...

    How do People Recognise Flirting?

    Yes. This. What is flirting?! How do you recognise it? What if they're just being friendly?

    Does anyone think about things, as well as people as investments?

    Yes. And I feel terrible doing it. When I was younger I made the mistake of expressing this view to my family; I was immediately blasted as a horrible, manipulative, and conniving person.
