    A little confused.

    So I've been dating this guy, and I am really starting to fall for him. He is very sweet, but is moody like I, and does not understand how hard communication is for me. I have told him about my son being on the spectrum, and he knows a little about it but not in depth. I have not told him I...

    Its been awhile

    I haven't realized, I have neglected my account. But, I have been making changes, and got a boyfriend. I totally was blind sided by that, it kind of just happened. Don't know how long it will last if it will, but I am enjoying the ride. My son has been making some positive and a few negative...

    Do you have a difficulty with saying no?

    OMG yes, I have an extremely tuff time telling people I don't particularly like or care to do things for no. A lot of times I have kicked myself in the ass or was like why the hell did I just say yes to that? It is very hard especially being female being assertive, and I am very passive as it...

    Do you forgive easily?

    I forgive way too easily. I am a very passive person, and don't like the drama. Although it has been hard I've actually made some changes and haven't been so willingly passive and helpful to people that really don't deserve my friendship.

    The Wave of Sadness

    I block out all the thoughts of sadness and negativity, but it doesn't always work with me either. Its weird because at times when everything should be good or I should be happy it hits me and all of a sudden I am sad and thinking about all the negative in my life. It is like a "wave of sadness".

    Do you feel you have to explain yourself to others?

    I am frequently explaining myself for whatever, even if no explanation is necessary. I don't know why, its like I feel it is just something I got to do. I usually just want someone to see my view. I also can be vague and confuse people when I talk, not all my thoughts come out when I try to...

    How do you feel about APA eliminating Aspergers Syndrome as a condition?

    I am on the fence with this one. I will probably& always identify myself as an "Aspie" because that is what I feel comfortable identifying myself as.
