I agree with Metalman you can let life pass you by or you can actually take a chance and do something positive for yourself. I think getting a part time job or something is also a good idea to give you experience and help you learn how to interact with others while making money. While I am not on the spectrum, but by no means NT things are difficult for me to, but I realized my life is what I make it and I refuse to let my issues stop me from living.

I am looking for full-time work, but having to choose between a few equally good options. I am close to a decision in that area. I have already applied for several jobs.

It's not that the female Aspies on the same wavelength as me don't exist, but none of them appear to be single.

Sigh, perhaps you may have to look out for more women, or that wait for a few more years I suppose.

I have been willing to be tolerant of people with drinking and drug problems, as well as people who don't want kids (I do want them), in order to find an Aspie on the same wavelength.

Just like I mentioned in "Tim_Tex: In His Own Words", I place part of the blame on polarization.

Yeah, but it's so difficult.

What makes you think it's easy for everybody else NT or Aspie? The only difference is that everybody else gets out in the real world and takes a chance. You, you sit in your parent's house watching cartoons and come up with lame excuses as to why you can't do anything. Nobody truly knows what they want in a relationship. Just when you think you've got it all figured out someone comes along and completely changes your perspective. Sometimes that's bad but mostly it's good. that's the beauty of it. Trying to systematize a relationship, as tempting as it can be, just doesn't work.

Tim, it's time to grow some balls, get a job, ANY JOB and start saving money. For Chrissakes you live with your parents. Even a minimum wage job will add up quick in that situation. It's time to get out and interact with real people. then and only then will you be able to see just how ridiculous your way of thinking is.


I have applied to three GIS/urban planning jobs just today.

If she ends up being a right-wing fundamentalist, should I try to convince her to ditch those beliefs and go on a more centrist path?

Fundies need their lives shaken up big time.

No, you ditch HER and find someone else. It's not worth the effort to try and change someone just because you don't think you can find anyone else.

I don't even want a relationship. All most guys ever want, is sex anyways.
