self indulgent hello

Hello.

I'm not 100% sure why it is that I am here, writing this... I suppose I just feel that I am indeed on the wrong planet.

I've felt that way for as long as I can remember.

My problems in life seem to be... I'm more sensitive than most people, but outwardly, I am stoic and chill...
I do have occasional breakdowns, and I definitely have a problem with spontaneous anger, but I've learned to control these fairly well.

I could ramble about my social problems,
but it would take approximately forever. lol.

As a summary; I can make eye contact, when necessary, but It makes me uncomfortable to say the least
I don't know how to flirt, but somehow, I ended up in a relationship, and I'm trying to hold it together
Bad at small talk, it feels fake, I let conversation dwindle
I'm constantly misunderstood, I constantly misunderstand
It took me about 30 minutes to get a joke today
some people read me like a book,
other people misinterpret my intentions completely

I'm not looking for a diagnosis, just people I can identify with.
I haven't exactly talked to professionals or anyone with experience,
but I've been told I'm an idiot for suspecting I might have AS.
I was home-schooled 3rd - 8th grade
and high school was a drawn-out waking nightmare.
I tested out.

people describe me as quirky
or sketchy.

I have a hard time describing myself,
I mean well. I'm cynical and fiercely optimistic at once.

Everything I just said sounds pretty sad,
but I'm not a sad person at all,
I just hope maybe I can make a friend or two.

Self indulgent welcome to wrong planet

Thanks y'all.
I'm really digging this site so far.

I have only been on here one day. I hate to say it, but it's a relief to hear other people struggling with the same obstacles. I'm also not exactly sure why I am on here (or how long I will stay.) I just wanted to say that your description of yourself pretty much mimics mine: Misunderstood, misundertands, in a relationship with an amazing person (not really sure how that happened), scrambling to keep it together, actually have a few great friends but being around them, as much as I like them, is a constant mental riddle...I could go on and on...

Anyway, good to meet you!

Welkome to WP.
