We can lie, yes, but it's usually not the first solution we think of like it is with NTs.

As far as I can tell this is a subject that's never been researched scientifically, so I figured I'd just casually ask people about their experiences: Do you think that there's a difference in terms of how you react to certain types of stories vs how NTs react? I'm curious because I've started to no...

I should probably also note that I have an edge in that I have no moral objection to polyamory, and tend to hang around alot of polyamorous people. I've currently had 5 sexual partners (only one long-term), and most people I know have usually had dozens. I don't want to make it sound like hooking up...

(assuming you're male here) The biggest mistake you can make is assuming that either your, or the company you keep will remain static. I remember when I was your age, I believe I'd had sex once, and I thought I was a fluke. It took me several years to have it again. Since then, the rate at which I'v...

They don't represent us, they represent parents who are "burdened" with one of us. If you were an alien whose only knowledge of autism came from their materials, you'd assume it with synonymous with "severely ret*d with severe impulse control problems." They refuse to see us as anything more than an...

I usually don't get too involved in this community, so I apologize if someone already suggested this. I'm really getting annoyed with Autism Speaks, and I'm really getting pissed at being treated like I'm just a burden on society, which is why I'm posting this. Has anyone considered a mass campaign ...

Awesome, what part?

BTW, it isn't actually necessary to welcome me. I've posted here before, I'm just not a regular contributer.

Even though there seems to be a heavy Bias against the Military on Wrong Planet I have never regretted my decision to serve. Personally, I have nothing against the military. I have more of a problem with the president having absolute authority over it. I want to come up with some system where, in t...

just wondering... were you diagnosed as a child, i.e. did AS play an explicit part in this strict upbringing? Nope, diagnosed in college. I think my parents didn't want to admit anything was wrong, beyond general misbehavior. Also, the fact that my dad almost certainly had it probably made it less ...

Hey, I was wondering if anyone other than me was raised as a conservative Christian, and if so do you get the feeling that being sheltered like that might make Asperger's worse? I kind of do, but I could also buy that it might be a reverse causation (conservative Christianity might be popular in my ...

I think this is just a bad time of year. I'm kind of playing around with two girls at the moment over IMs, but both have been busy whenever I was free (not surprising, they're both college students and it's the middle of the semester).

Dammit! I may or may not have blown it before the date even happened. More updates later. Just wanted to say that to someone.

Hi, I am perplexed about a recent experience with a man with Asperger's Syndrome that I met on this forum. We started by sending each other private messages and then progressed to e-mails and then phone calls. It seems like we have a lot in common and I thought we could relate to each other well. G...

One thing NOT to do...do not keep ordering drinks as a way of keeping your hands busy and as a means to reduce your stress...it does work in rare instances but in the morning you usually regret it. :wink:


I can't ORDER drinks, I'm only 20.
