I hate loud and sudden noises. Absolutely detest them. Apparently my tolerance for loudness is much lower than the typical NT as well, because I am always covering my ears to things others around me tend to be fine with. Seeing as I live in the city and ride a bicycle or walk everywhere, this can be...

I have an apparently odd sense of humour that I cannot quite understand myself. After some amount of dissection I find a lot of it relates to the ridiculousness of personification of inanimate objects. For example, I find phrases such as "The lift, of course, just has to stop on every single floor",...

I came across the song Daft Punk called "Within" just now, and realized a deep resonance with the lyrics, in that I felt they describe my experience of the Asperger's inner world too precisely. (Although reading them directly it feels like the atmosphere of the music itself contributes a large part ...

I am new here also and from neighbouring Japan. Welcome. It is great to see another member from Asia (it is especially difficult in Asian cultures for us, where a lot is unspoken and based on reading feelings). I hope Asperger's support increases in this area of the world. I look forward to communic...

He's "evolving" - don't interrupt the process by drawing attention to it. Just let it happen. It may take a while.

Hello there. I hope someone can bear my difficult and vague concern. I am hoping for some thoughts on decoding my boyfriend's confusing statement without asking him directly and cornering him/making him uncomfortable. I am aware that it is not possible to know what any one individual thinks from ove...

Hello there. I am not really sure what to write here. I have been always told I have a strange communication style, and often got people very upset with me or offended for reasons I always cannot understand no matter what I do. When I ask them to please tell me why concretely, they get even more ang...
