    I mess up socially because___________

    I lack social boundaries sometimes. Ill tell you a funny story. So at this Halloween party my friend was dressed up as the whore of babylon. My original costume as a scotsman fell apart, so I put on this shirt that the seminary banned me from wearing (college IM soccer team named Multiple...

    How do you deal with crushes?

    Haha, pretty awful. Ive gotten a bit better but it has always been a bit comical. Like in HS I liked this girl named Becca, I was moving away and my cousin managed to convince me that she liked me too. So the whole time I tried to get some time alone with her. And I should note that the party...

    Lack of empathy

    Personally I do not lack empathy, except when I think it is unwarranted. I got myself in trouble with my ex more than a few times because I couldnt fake enough empathy for her problems. Sometimes I do have to work a bit harder to express my empathy, but that does not mean it isnt there.The best...

    Is law enforcement a good career for Aspies?

    The way I see it, you should do anything you want. I am a seminary student, which really shouldn't be an aspie line of work, but I love it and I am doing it all the same. We are not defined by any diagnosis, we do not live in a world where aptitude tests determine what we do with our lives. Will...

    How do you feel about having kids?

    I love kids, they laugh at my jokes and find my bit of oddity funny. Personally I come from a large extended family, my Dad was one of 6 but I only have one brother, who I love and am very close to. I love the big family aspect, and if I can have that in life I would be a happy man. As far as...

    Sensitive Topic Are Aspies prone to be emotionally abused?

    Thank you all for your words of support and empathy (to hell with the idea we cant have empathy). It has been good talking to you all because for so long I just buried my condition pretended it didn't exist and had no bearing on my life. But the truth of it is that it does and I felt it more...

    Sensitive Topic Are Aspies prone to be emotionally abused?

    Spaticus: Thank you. Its just hard, its been 5 months but it just wont go away. We were together for 2.5 years and I had felt more comfortable with her than anyone else, I almost never discussed my aspergers with anyone outside my family just because I tried so hard to be normal, but I did with...

    Not "serious" enough?

    Being not serious is one of the few times Iam really happy and feel myself, maybe its just embracing all my quirks but I like it. Sometimes its the only way I can actually take things serious. Sometimes I get nervous and dont say things when Iam too serious but when I loosen up a bit I do a lot...

    Sensitive Topic Are Aspies prone to be emotionally abused?

    So I have posted a few times about my ex, because it has really been the first time in over a decade that I have felt my aspergers. But for this post I would like to deal with emotional abuse. Throughout the relationship I feel like I gave a lot without ever getting. I was fine with that to be...

    White Picket Fence Syndrome?

    Thats all I have ever wanted. I love kids and even if they are like me, I just want to feel normal for once. For a long time I was ok being single because I had friends that I knew cared for me. As they started to find people I felt more alone than I had in years. I had a thing for this girl...

    Ex making my emotions go haywire

    So I posted before about my ex and to sum up, broke up through text and now seeing a fwb. So the other day I get a strange visit, she hacked my fb and was angry that after 3 months of being broken up, I had the gaul to try and move on. She was in a murdering mood, not a joke she actually brought...

    Do You Believe In God?

    I did not grow up in a religious household, but I found acceptance and love for the first time from Christians which opened me up to thinking about faith. Ill admit it was hard, really really hard for me to come to the faith, I was very stubborn, but I was treated with patience and that made all...

    Late blossoming/NT relations

    I just got out of a 2.5 year relationship with a NT girl. It was my only real relationship and there was a lot of learning involved, and I sort of stumbled my way into it. So I dont have much advice on getting a girl because Iam not sure how I got one, but when you do, it will be a lot of work...

    Sometimes its hard to act normal

    Iam the exact same way, often my go to method of mainstreaming id just being funny, because if it shows it can just be part of the humor. I almost never admit it to anyone because I dont want to be judged by something I have no control over, or seen as different. Sometimes I offend people and...
