:cry: Well, I'm not much in to talking to people I don't know, much less about my problems, but my best friend's mom said I should try this site. I had no clue she even knew I had Asperger's until I saw what this site was about (and I think it's awesome). I'll see how many people answer this thread and actually care before I post anything about being used and confused.

Welcome Gwenevire, I hope you find our little community helpful and supportive. Personally I've found it's sometimes easier to talk about your problems with someone your not emotionally invested with, i don't care if they think I'm whacko and sometimes I am LOL. A lot of us are very accepting of individual differences and if nothing else sooner or later you'll find a post that is similar to what ever problem your having and you will not feel so alone.

The nice thing about WP is that people like us can feel at home here. There aren't a lot of places that's true of.

I hope it works for you too. Welcome.

8O ... wow... I had no idea that I'd get so many replies... This is cool! I actually feel wanted!

I grew up in Denver, CO. My best friend was a boy named Michael. I've moved twice since then. After 9 years, he found me on MySpace (which my mom MADE me get???) and friended me. Two years later, he said he liked me as more than a friend. Honestly, I've liked him since I was 5. That was around Valentine's Day. I got to see him in Seattle, as he was there for a swim meet (he's in high school and competes at an Olympic level). I bought him a RED CD for his birthday and also one for myself. Then in May, he stopped responding to me. At first, he said it was school. Then he didn't ever respond at all. About a month later, one of my friends where I live said he liked me. I thought, what the heck, I'll go for it. Now I may have the ability to find out what happened to Michael. It's been driving me insane lately. Even though I have a boyfriend, I still, as I have for 10 years, like Michael enough to forgive him for anything and also do anything for him. There's one thing that would make him afraid to talk to me. Maybe it was that... Or maybe he abandoned me just like I told him I was terrified he would.
I want to know, but at the same time, maybe I don't...

What do I do???

If you can find out but cannot be satisfied without an answer, I suggest you do try to find out.

If you cannot find out but can be satisfied without an answer, I suggest you do try to be satisfied without an answer.

If you cannot find out but cannot be satisfied without an answer, I suggest that you try to find comforting words and hugs, either here or from the people close to you.

If you can find out but can be satisfied without an answer, I suggest you try to choose what seems more convenient.

You raise an interesting question for which I do not have an interesting answer.
