Thanks for the replies. Just to clarify, I didn't have the intention to offend anyone, I was just wondering. |

I used to have problems with it. Eventually I just kept looking at people's foreheads and later I started looking into their eyes and now I can do it. I guess a 2/10 or something. It's harder when around people I don't know though. |

I don't think so at all. There's plenty of people I don't necessarily have a crush on I'd date. Plus, the two would both have to be eachother's crush before dating, which isn't that common, so that means a lot less dates. Then there's falling in love with someone you barely know. now that only gets ... |

There's people all over the world having total s**t lives, and you think god is cruel because he gave you autism? What a joke.
I don't think there's a god anyways. |

I'm going to need a TL:DR for this one. I took an IQ test at my school, turns out my IQ is exactly average, and people kept telling me I was smart when I was young. Now I have proof I'm not...not sure in what other way knowing this was useful... |

Very well, actually. I'm at a school mainly for autistic kids(although that's changing, but it used to be). I thought my social skills wouldn't develop because I'd be talking to people that also had poor social skills. But that's not true at all, they do still develop. We communicate pretty well wit... |

I have Asperger's Syndrome officially and I think I might have a light case of Social Anxiety. The thing is, I used not to, but somewhere along the lines of puberty, I started to be anxious around a lot of people. I have no idea if there's a connection. |

Just tell him you don't like it, it's really that simple. A good friend would respect your preference and stop. I do have a sex drive and I'm not sure why either. I'd rather have people get straight to the point than play games. I'd like people to be clear with what they mean. |

The only reason I needed a diagnosis at one point was that we wanted to go to a certain special school that required it. But if I think about it, if I didn't want to go to that school, there wouldn't have been much of a point to getting a diagnosis. So why would you actually want to get diagnosed? L... |
