| She responded by saying that she understood, and that she considered me to be one of few really good friends of hers. She said she was going to miss me, and that if I ever reconsidered, that she was there. After reading the response, I couldn't take it. I called one of my good friends who knows us b... |

| It scares me as well. It's difficult to try and find aspies in real life to get to know, so I've personally tried to surround myself with a nerdier group. I did it with the assumption that, the nerdier the person, the more aspie traits they'll have. I've tried to sway my odds a bit. I understand how... |

| So, I went ahead and gave her the news. I'm going crazy now, wondering if I made a mistake, but I suppose it was necessary. Now, I just have to try and recover. |

| Thanks everyone. I appreciate the advice. I think that I "look" fine to her, but I think 2.5 years of being friends has made any attraction she has toward me a bit stale. I think I may just break the news that I don't want to continue hanging out, at least for a while, this next weekend. |

| I have asperger's syndrome, and I am very good friends with this girl who I really like. I'll call her Jane. I met her in my sophomore year of college, and we hit it off very well. This was before I new what was different about me, but I knew that I wanted a girl that wasn't prissy (makeup, dyed hai... |

| I put it in this section because I'm attempting to meet somebody. The cars portion was just a brief description of my interests. It doesn't matter if I meet a future girlfriend, or if I just meet a friend though. |

| I am a Mechanical Engineering student at Clemson University. My life revolves around cars. It's almost all I think about. In fact, I'm actually trying to build one now in a CAD program. Anyway, tonight has almost driven me insane with loneliness. I'm about to go crazy with the lack of anyone I don't... |

| I can't stand how not expressing interest in a girl you like within some intangible time frame makes her lose any interest in you. I've experienced so much of this throughout my life, that I finally asked a girl if she would like to kiss me on the second date, so as not to miss the "deadline." I did... |

| I find it difficult to even obtain a relationship due to the fact that girls often seem not to believe me when I tell them I have interest in them. It's almost a "wow, the robot has feelings" type of response. It's hard for them to understand that it's just my nature to be kindof faceless. I think i... |

| @MakaylaTheAspie It's both a college and a city. It's in South Carolina, kindof in the western "point" looking area on the map. It seems we're on opposite coasts. |

| I'll definitely let you (another_1) know if I'm ever in columbia. I'm not sure if Clemson has a support group or not, but I'll check. The shrink did give helpfull advice though. She said that she's dealt with people with Asperger's, so there have to be more like me on campus. She said if she could t... |

| I feel like a self-diagnosis would almost always be correct if the person fully understands the condition. I feel this way because I don't think a neurotypical would diagnose themselves with this, due to the social stigma. Someone would most likely have to be looking for an answer to something they'... |

| Hi, I'm new to the forum. I'm technically undiagnosed, but I have had a shrink tell me that I have it. Both her and I agree that I can't benefit from disability services, so the diagnosis was made informally by a professional. Anyway, I have met people whom I suspect may have it, but I've yet to mee... |
