Hi, Welcome to Wrong Planet! :nemo:

As far as art, I enjoy writing, both fiction and nonfiction. Some attempts at screenwriting, even a few attempts at songwriting. Personal satisfaction, but no cash money yet.

Welcome to WrongPlanet!

May I direct you to the "Art, Writing and Music" forum?
Enjoy your stay here, from someone who is no artist! :)

Thanks everyone. I guess the point of wrong planet is to be honest about things and try to learn what to do.

My whatever it is affect like this, I don't always get obvious things until sometime later. Like The Beatles, I know it's pun on music, but I didn't understand the bug aspect, so I always wondered why the would sometimes be draw as little bugs. I only recently got that.

Socially I am engaging, funny, I over do the eye contact a bit, and...well...this is kind of funny actually...but I just don't get it if a woman likes me. I am divorced now, but the only reason I ever got married is because she grabbed me and kissed me, then it was obvious. Otherwise I think a lady is just being nice.

So what do I do, just randomly kiss women? I can envision dire drawbacks to that. If I like a woman, do I just tell her? I was married for 15 years, and my former wife would say, "that woman was so hitting on you! Didn't you get it?" I just thought they were being nice, so I just don't really know. Would mentioning at some point during a date should I explain that to her? Should I start a stand-up routine? I said I thought it was was pretty funny, that might be a way to approach it, say I have a funny thing to tell her.

Or is this option an obvious train wreck that I just don't get?

Anyway, I was self suspecting for years as to Aspergers, then I was diagnosed by a professional my sister was friends with a few months ago.

Thanks again, I'll check out the arts board, as well. Sorry if that's too much information, I guess that's why I am here.

I'm not sure about the dating scene. I'm pretty much in the same boat. But after I get to know someone, I've learned the value of sucking it up and just asking what you're wondering about. It sometimes makes me wonder why human beings still play all of these silly games. :lol:
