It's been a while since the last post on here, but as I was going to start a similar thread, I'll just share my own experience of the problem on here. My AS is also a huge secret, and YET I get partonized A LOT. I am a little bit overweight and probaly not good looking, and my family told me often t...

I had very similar difficulties in terms of dating in the past. I used to be a lesbian so I didn't like guys, not the guys who approached me, not any guys. In the past few years though I guess I am more of the bisexual type. Yet I would systematically refuse guys (I don't seem to be half as successf...

I'm the least spontaneous person on earth. Everything is super calculated with me. However, I dislike those NTs who always make statements like "really you think too much, you should be more spontaneous". I find those statements judgmental and rude of the way I am. And even if I could I wouldn't COM...

I like what one person said about being a Call Center person. I could see that working, and have had it suggested to me numerous times since high school. Not for people on the spectrum who are severely uncomfortable talking on the phone. I might be weird in that respect but I prefer it over the pho...

The way the question is phrased is indeed confusing: do you consider that you may have a disability? Personally, now that I know about AS, and feel it affects me in different areas of my life, I consider I have a disability. I also consider that it impacts on my work because when I get very OCD or h...

I actually love driving, but it took me forever to learn. Even now, depending on my mood, the time of day, tiredness, levels of dyspraxia or whatever activity I was doing JUST before driving (acting, playing a musical instrument and engaging in writing or translating coordinates me), I drive more or...

Heya! I read through your entire post but have not the courage to read what others replied to you, so I may repeat what has been said. This is my take on the situation: I am guessing that if you are here, then you have Autism/Aspergers and you certainly know about it if you post on here. For that re...

Heya Tequila! :) 2nd post. :D For a silent stone, you are not doing too badly for yourself! :) Well, I try my best. I am not particularly good in talking about myself like that - it rather puts me on the spot. :) I'm sorry, I'm not trying to put you under any pressure. If there is anything you ever ...
