| I really like the text that explains what aspergers is and what comes with it, concise and to the point. Exept when it gets to "very high IQ". I would keep that part much more modest, because otherwise people have more reason to say "you are just trying to be special". Slide at 0:21, the first one w... |

| I have noticed that I switch to smoother, higher pitch, more feminine voice when I intend to be especially polite to strangers. And also the opposite that I make a low voice when I try to get rid of some annoying person. Both sides noticeably different from my normal, talk-to-close-people voice. Stu... |

| I wouldn't go to the police because he's a Muslim and there could be serious repercussions for him with his family as I imagine he wouldn't be allowed any contact with a non-Muslim woman. Muslims genrally only have strict rules and punishments for the behaviour of women. Man can do whatever, especi... |

| So why exactly don't you want to meet up with this guy again? You should never ignore him if you suspect that he really likes you, this is just wrong. Not to be rude, but I feel sorry for this guy and the fact that he is upset that he is having trouble trying to talk to you. You should try to suppo... |

| From what you told - you have never actually stalked him or been annoying. Just knowing that someone likes you is not the same as being seriously stalked and probably now, few years later he thinks nothing about it. Or at worst case he is a bit flattered of being liked back then :) . He is a grown u... |

| I haven't got over childhood animism, I still feel that toys and alike have soul and and feelings. Mostly I feel it about things that have some kind of eyes or face (or had once or are supposed to have). Like when a toy car has eyes, then it is much more a personality than a usual toy car without a ... |

But keep the writing as short as possible, because a book worth of text might make you look like crazy. And in wri... |

If you start to like cycling again then you can buy new, shiny, even more motivating bicycle that suits your preference of the track, which you can only find out if you first ride for some time... |
