Hello there. I am Masato (online name), a 20-year old male. I've been diagnosed with Asperger Syndrome about eight to ten years ago and I am still learning to - how do you say that - find my way around in real life. English is not my native-language, but I will try to be as clear as possible when I decide to write messages on WrongPlanet, so excuse me if there are any minor mistakes in my text.

Anyway, I just learned about this website a few days ago and I'm very excited to read all the interesting information that comes up here. I've been reading here for about two days and quite a few members here inspired me greatly with their messages. I hope we can get along in helping each other with our problems and talk about our interests in the meantime.

Well, I think this will do. If you have any questions, feel free to ask them as I will try to answer them as best as I can.

Hello. Welcome to WP.

Whereabouts are you from if English is not your native tongue?

I'm from The Netherlands, a little country next to yours.

Oh, yes. The Netherlands...

...I want to visit your country soon. I might book a quick break away there in a next few days. I've never been but I fancy going.

I actually thought with a name like that that you may be Japanese. Have you an interest in Japanese movies, manga, animé or anything of that nature? I haven't myself but I could then see where you're coming from in that respect.

I always find it humiliating when I tell Johnny Foreigner that his English is probably better than mine and is almost certainly better than an awful lot of people here in the UK too and it looks true here also. Don't sweat it; we understand you perfectly.

Look forward to seeing you around.

Yes, indeed. I have a very high interest in the Japanese culture. I watch a lot of anime and I love Japanese games (seriously, Japanese Horror-games are the best in my opinion). I just love the Japanese culture, the mutual respect that people have for each other, the food etc. I hope I can visit the country one day, which isn't possible at the moment.

And thanks for the welcome!
