| 1) Are you single or married? How do you feel about it and why? Engaged to be married. Couldn't be happier with it. 2) How many relationships you've had? A handful of short rubbish ones before this one - nothing really meaningful 3) Where did you both meet? Properly? After a concert in a train stati... |

| I know this feeling all too well. After years of trying to convince people that I can't deal with the fuss, my friends and family actually realised I meant it this year! I settled for going to my relatives for coffee one morning a few days before hand and the night before I had a meal at my house fo... |

| Definately. It was far worse when we lived in a small flat and there was no-where for me to go if people I didn't really know came round (my partners friends and family). It puts me really on edge if anyone is in "my" space, either people I don't know that well or people that I wasn't expecting to s... |

| I nearly forgot, choose your bridesmaids very carefully. I had my daughter and one of my oldest friends, my sisters were really pissed off that I didn't ask them but it was the best decision I made.

| As far as appearences go I'm not really that girly - I'm not interested in hair, or makeup or things like that. I will wear skirts and dresses when I have to but they have to be long and made out of something comfortable (linen or something similar) - I can't stand most of the synthetic stuff they s... |

I'm just wondering if anyone else here has dealt with planning a wedding whilst having AS. From colleagues at work, I b... |

| Going to the hairdressers is something I put off for month and months at a time - I find it really difficult. Because I had to move to a town, there's only big salon style places which tend to play really loud music and have loads and loads of people with too much stuff going on. I can't cope with t... |
