    My Aspie friend told me they love me -and I feel the same way!- but......

    I understand. I'm seeing friends and acquaintances around me suffering from very toxic, unfair and unbalanced relationships; three of my closest friends are clearly unhappy and it's heartbreaking to watch. One boyfriend doesn't even want to recognize my best friend as their girlfriend despite...

    My Aspie friend told me they love me -and I feel the same way!- but......

    Even though I'm not NT, I can relate to the feeling of needing affirmations of love, but that's due to the fear of them losing interest in me. I guess that my friend doesn't see the need for this at all, but if that's the case, I'll just have to deal with it. Makes me wonder if the reason all...

    My Aspie friend told me they love me -and I feel the same way!- but......

    Thank you Gracey. I really needed the reassurance that I'm probably horribly overthinking (as I mentioned in one of the replies, I tend to enter a downward spiral of negativity when I'm too confused for a long time. Not sure if this is PDD-NOS related, though). I'm just concerned that by...

    My Aspie friend told me they love me -and I feel the same way!- but......

    Yeah I'm guessing my friend doesn't always seem to notice when they're (accidentally) upsetting someone else. I'm quite certain they're not doing this on purpose. Whenever they do upset me I just don't mention it; instead, I want to see things from their perspective, so I ask them to explain so...

    Hello everyone! I have diagnosed PDD-NOS.

    Thanks, Rectify! It's Groose from The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword. He happened to be the first thing to come to mind while choosing a profile picture, and I found the sunglasses edit funny, so here he is haha

    My Aspie friend told me they love me -and I feel the same way!- but......

    Thanks for the replies everyone! Judging by some comments, I think it's important I'll elaborate on some things and add some additional information. I'll reply to each comment here: Rectify: One of the main things I was wondering is that their behaviour is somehow related to their Asperger's or...

    My Aspie friend told me they love me -and I feel the same way!- but......

    Hello everyone, this will be my first thread that's not an introduction thread! As the title already mentioned, I have a very close friend who has diagnosed Asperger's Syndrome. I personally have PDD-NOS myself. While I have an easy time describing my strengths and weaknesses, and what I can...

    Hello everyone! I have diagnosed PDD-NOS.

    Nice to meet you all! English is my second language and as far as I know I'm quite fluent in it, but I'll still apologize anyway if any sentence seems odd. I'm completely new here and also new to autism-related forums. Despite being diagnosed at age 9 or so, I've never really gotten any help...
