| But I have yet to find a book that will explain math to me in this manner on the HS or subHS level. It seems to be very "do this then this" without actually explaining the logic.

| Hi, I need some advice on finding a math textbook or resource for selfstudy. I did fairly bad in mathematics in HS partly because I had undiagnosed sleep disorder and partly because my foundation was bad... but the thing is I think I could be good at it.

Girl number 2 needs better girl-friends who doesn't judge her.
Girl number 1 sounds boring.
Though I am not a guy I'd hang with girl number 2 over girl nr 1. Though the pot is a dealbreaker for me. |

I thought it was very beautiful film and I love both Hugh Jackman and Rachel Weisz and was happy to see them together.
The open ending is sort of nervewracking for me though. I like closure. |

| Oh I was the worst at essays. But some time after HS I got (almost magically) better at it. Generally a lot of the assignments are strange though, or feels strange because with AS you're so tied up into your own assumtions and ideas that it is hard to visualize what people really want you to write..... |

But it was only for gay men it was allowed. (Which they are against anyway). Specifically I believe the example was gay prostitutes.
Female prostitues are still not allowed.
The Catholic Church is still as anti-women as it ever were. |

Personally I wouldn't like it if a guy was as "kind" as to lower his standards to date me.
It's actually the reason I don't accept any dates now. Because I think guys are interested only because they think I'd be an easy target. |

And for the record I come off as NT to most people, I'm still Aspie. I'm just really good at pretending. |
