If they are true friends, then they won't mind a few questions about how they perceive (generic) you. As a matter of fact, they may even appreciate that you... |

| i have to agree with those saying that you're looking at the wrong things. Asperger Syndrome is not a "look". Although those of us with it tend to wear clothes for days or wear mismatched clothes, the reason for doing so is what has gotten us diagnosed, not the fact that we "look" different: when cl... |
