Do you guys ever feel like...

Post Reply New Topic

Do you guys ever get mad at someone because they are not thinking what you are thinking? or that they fail to guess what is on your mind and you feel like that they are doing that on purpose? It's a problem pointed out by my friend yesterday and i wonder if anyone feels the same way.

Not really. It's more of a correction issue with me.

Back when the "Mars and Venus" books were popular, I was in a relationship that wasn't working out. So, I read a couple of these books trying to improve my skills (I didn't have the first clue I had AS at the time).

One of the things these books stressed was that women in particular need to be mindful of the fact that their significant other cannot read their mind, and it's not realistic to expect them to. (Disclaimer: I'm NOT trying to run down women; men have their own unique set of problems women have to deal with).

I should also say that I'm not sure sexual differences apply to your situation. My point is that the failure to communicate properly is a major issue with normal people, not to mention those on the ASD.

i am a woman, but my friend that is in a relationship with a guy that is really very much like me seem to notice the same problem with him too. How do you explain that??
