Here comes another stranger.

I'm 23 years old. I'm kind of self diagnosed. I've done some tests with a positive result, but never been diagnosed presentially.. I've no doubt i'm an aspie. Ever since I was a child i felt a was different.
I first read about AS in a magazine where it was mentioned briefly. I got really scared, it seemed as if the answer to so many questions was finally in front of me.

Considering my condition, i've been quite lucky with girls. I've had a 2-year-and-a-half relationship. Right now i feel as if i was gonna stay alone forever though. I see no possibility of a woman finding me interesting anymore.

I am a keen reader and writer. I love English romantic poets, Wordsworth and Coleridge mostly. I also love Dylan Thomas. Reading poetry helps me evade. When it comes to prose, I admire a lot of authors. I also love listening to music and playing guitar. My nickname was inspired by these Coleridge verses taken from The Rime of the Ancient Mariner:

Water, water, every where,
Nor any drop to drink.

Hi, not_a_drop! I'm new, on the forum today, too. I'm a mom of an aspie who is 19. Look forward to hearing insights from other Aspies.

Hi not a drop and welcome to the wrongplanet. I also enjoy poetry and studied a lot of it in college years ago. I was diagnosed with Asperger's not too long ago. But getting a diagnosis isn't for everyone. I just wanted to know. Anyway, enjoy the site.

Learn to be kind, well-groomed, interested in other people's lives, and make an adequate income, and someone will be attracted to you.
