Well...hi. Since I'm new here, I might as well introduce myself, and see where it goes. I grew up not knowing about my condition, which was hard. Lots of bullying and rejection. A number of years ago, my mom was doing research, and came across asperger's syndrome. She half jokingly implied that perhaps I might have it, although has never said anything else since. When I looked into it, suddenly everything made sense.

I am definitely not a social person. No facebook, no twitter, nor anything of the sort. Very few friends, who I rarely see or talk to. This is the first time that I have decided to talk on the internet. I guess I should try it at least once.

So...ya. I've never been the kind to go out to make friends, but I finally decided to try it for once, and try to find people who are more like me than anyone who I currently know. Perhaps someone who actually understands what it's like.

hi, seeker. welcome. what sorts of things do you enjoy doing?

Well...reading wikipedia, learning science, reading stories, anime, biking

Hey SeekerOfTruth welcome.

thanks

Welcome!

Those parts sound very similar to me. My mother found out that Asperger´s syndrome exists because she read the word and wanted to know what it is, then she did the same what your mother did and said I might have it. I was curious and looked into it myself and like you described suddenly very much made sense about me and my life.

I also don´t have facebook or twitter. I only use e-mail to keep in contact with people I know. I prefer that to telephones because writing is an easier way to communicate for me.

thanks. It's good to know I'm not alone. I also find it much easier to write than to talk.

@Anon
thanks

Yes, suddenly everything makes sense! I have been reading people's introductions tonight and that thought is the most common one I have read, so yes, you are with many who actually understands you!
