| I do. I go to a christian school, so my classmates are probably on the slightly more mature side. But I'm often finding myself looking down on their immaturity, and I am regarded as one of the more mature people in the school. This was especially true in the first few years when most didn't know me ... |

| I don't know many other aspies but I am one, and my friends, both boy and girl, often say I'm good at complimenting girls. Boys often ask me for advice too 8) . It probably stems from my family being mostly female. But anyway: 1. Focus on non sexual things. Trust me, it makes misunderstandings less ... |

| Your post hints towards Aspergers, because it is common for an aspie to have such a memory. Also, many sensory disorders are associated with Aspergers, mainly the one that makes us notice too much, I can't remember what it's called |

| I am truly a brony. But I am not fond of the perverted side of the fandom. I like multiple ponies equally, but I don't have much merch, but I don't have much of any kind of merch. |

| The diagnostic criteria for Aspergers is an IQ above 70. Statistically by excluding people on the lower end of a scale for Asperger diagnosis the average intelligence of Aspies will be above the average of the general population. Psychologists acting on the stereotype that only people with above av... |

| Individuals who are labeled with Asperger's Syndrome must, by definition, have an average to above-average intelligence level. This is exactly what I am talking about; where is the proof for this claim! I know for a fact that this is fallacious. My ex partner works with aspergers kids, who by the w... |

| Well, I can't tell you what to do next, I'm very disconnected with all of that (but then again we aspies are like that). But I can tell you that a textbook knowledge won't be much help. I know this from experience, e.g I know a lot about how male and female psychology works for someone my age. But I... |

| That would be a ridiculous notion. God made me with Aspergers, and I'm glad for it. If someone told me they would "cure" me I would promptly push them into a meat grinder. |

| I'm sure when I'm in my 30s, find a job that I can handle, and am talking to women with responsibilities and a the party is over attitude, that my dating life will get better. When I was in my 20s I thought the same thing. The same stuff happened all through my 30s. I'm 41 now and after all my work... |
