That line is a very hard one to cross. God knows I've been trying to do it for years without success. Any ways from personal experience I know that the "being nice" route doesn't work. You can still be generous, a good listener, ETC but overdoing it gets you no where. Usually it just gets you used a... |

Been playing MTG for a number of years now. I got into the game back during the Invasion block. My first deck was the Pandemonium precon from Apoc. Looking back I have no idea why I played a rainbow deck as my first deck. All I remember is that I really liked the green cards the deck had and thats w... |

One of the biggest problems we all face when trying to get into a relationship is the question "how can I make myself a part of this person's life?" Differing work schedules and finding a way to cope with them falls into this category. By the sounds of it you have the right idea trying to invite her... |

The problem with flirting is that like the words "normal" and "love" its definition is constantly switching to suit the needs of the person using the word. That and flirting, to me anyways, has always been an ambiguous and difficult thing to follow. This topic brings to mind a rather odd situation t... |

You're making a valid choice. Its your life and you can do what ever you want with it. In general the reply you'll get when you tell someone "I don't want kids, a wife, or a family. I'm satisfied with just my friends/family or being by myself" is "You say that NOW" I'm not sure why but some people j... |

Ah the patented "but you're my friend" ploy. Myself and my sister were both victims of that in middle school. On the surface the boys treated me like an equal but because of my AS I couldn't tell when they were joking or when they really meant it. So it was really easy for them to pull the wool over... |

Wow Kurtz just wow. The amount of detail you post in is ridiculous. I mean that in a good way of course. You certainly have more wisdom and advice than you know what to do with. I gotta say I agree with you on a lot of the points you made too. |

In my boredom I've been browsing through various online personals and a common theme I've noticed among the ones that are posted by women is that they all want a tall guy. The majority of these ads want someone 5'10-6'1 and won't settle for someone shorter. Even if the person is 5'9 its not good eno... |

As Calandale said, message boards like this one are a much more engaging way to meet people. I've had literally hundreds of contacts on the dating site I was on, and I exchanged emails and phone calls with a few guys, but I just couldn't manage to be very attracted to any of them, coming at it from... |

Maybe the problem is with AS relationships mean too much to us. I'd say thats true for a lot of us since we have so much trouble getting into one in the first place. NTs can drift because well I personally think a lot of them don't care on some level. To them drifting between partners can almost be... |

Of all places this would theoretically be the "worst" place to prey on people. Sure some of us are vulnerable but, at the same time we're really cautious. Factor in that the person in question would have to be fairly blunt to get his/her point across to someone with AS. I'd say to just chalk that th... |

I'd say it varies person to person. Me personally I don't mind cuddling at all, though that might be because I haven't really cuddled with someone before. Anyways I'd say the best course of action would be to simple ask your partner/friend what he likes and or if you're making him uncomfortable. Goo... |

AS really is a blessing and a curse varying on how you look at it. A blessing because we all have a different way of thinking and analyzing things when compared to an NT and this way of thinking differs between each of us who has AS. I like to think of it as permanently thinking outside the box whic... |

If he let you get that close to him without issue that's a sure sign that he's at least comfortable being around you. I've no idea if it means he likes you or not. There are too many variables to that equation right now. Best to leave things as they are and keep moving forward for the time being. Do... |

22 years old and I still haven't lost it yet. I'm in no hurry either. Maybe some day but right now I really could care less. |
