who here don't like ephemerella?
So, instead of responding to her in the thread that you felt slighted (like an adult) or perhaps just ignoring her, you start a hate thread? Classy.
Besides it being juvenile, it's against the rules.
he/she asked if anyone didn't like her now I don't personally know any rules against it (doesn't mean there isn't). A hate thread to me would be if she bashed emphrella and actually insulted her which is not the case. He/she did ask a loaded question but that is similar to emphrella's loaded "advice" and "statements" so basically I see no harm in it. OP provided the fire now its seeing if other people will start the fire.
I'm sorry I find personally lack of good grades and disorganization to not be a determiner of if you can handle a intellectual professional career.

"Little evidence"? This girl has posted multiple threads about her professor and failing her tests. She describes her thoughts in detail and the circumstances and asks for feedback!! !!
Frankly, I think my advice to her is better than those people who said she should switch to engineering. Engineering is much more grueling and disciplined than Math, because Math is more contemplative and reflective. Engineering major is like being on a manic treadmill for four years.
Yes, you make more friends if you say nice things that aren't true. But I'm one of those AS who don't lie or shade the truth.
I think I gave her the right advice. She needs to switch majors. You can only pile up so many F's before you become a problem and lose your way.
I don't know where the low self-esteem thing comes from. I think people might think I'm arrogant.
You have to understand, I like to write and if people ignore my advice, that doesn't really matter to me. I don't try to build relationships online.
This girl should be able to process the feedback I gave her. If she didn't like it, she can ignore it.
And yes, I am frustrated intellectually. Lately, I am exchanging more like an NT than an AS. I write comments that get posted on the NY Times website and get recommended. Also Wall Street Journal and economic journals. No, I didn't find a Hi-IQ AS forum.
this is not ok.
this is about personalities and not posts.
i do not agree with everything another poster says or does, but to single anyone out in a thread title in this manner is not for me.
i do believe this is horrid.
do you hide behind an avatar or is there a link to who you really are?

diehard,
I believe what ephemerella said has some merit. You should read her posts no matter how maddening they are. You did, after all, solicit opinions of your love life, and being an Aspie forum where social tact is not assumed, you should expect some rather blunt comments.
IMHO, you aren't ready for University yet. I'm not saying you're not capable; obviously you have some smarts to have gained admission, but you are more interested in dating than studying and University is, by design, an institution where academics is supposed to come above everything else.
You might consider taking a leave of absence, or concentrate on general ed. course for a year to give yourself time to think things through. If you stick on your present course, your GPA might sink to a level that forces expulsion.
Did something happen between you two?
Don't know if its related but she basically told him that he was unsuited for any intellectual professional career due to him not focusing in school. From what I got from it and how it will be interpreted is that without good grades you should just work low level jobs because your not suited for much else.
Your memory is pretty biased and full of gaps. You're the one who formed biased and ignorant opinions about me, without even really understanding the whole story. I think your post criticizing me as being biased and having scattered perspective, applies more to you than it does to me. Look at how you wrote such a negative remark about me and then here you have such a sloppy, vague answer to support it.
really? I supported it really well you started misspelling and going a little crazy about my remarks. What I find particularly amusing is your doing what you claimed other people do and that is discriminate against women. We can make this more about you if you'd like to but you won't win then you'll go back to "I'm leaving everyone save me from these horrible people who tell me the truth."
I'll sum up my last point for you its called "self fulfilling prophecy"
You are so full of s**t. Where above quote do I "start misspelling and going a little crazy about your remarks". You're attacking me because you have a grudge from my past Hi-I.Q. forum thread and you're just inventing excuses to attack me here.
Now you're accusing me of discriminating against women! I would say the same things to a male AS who was failing tests and posting flaky sexual reveries, and who then posts a thread that asks if his problem was due to intellectual or math ability.
You're just trying to continue the argument from the Hi-I.Q. thread. Who is this "Le Petit Prince"?
You've got an agenda and your arguments are lame.
"Little evidence"? This girl has posted multiple threads about her professor and failing her tests. She describes her thoughts in detail and the circumstances and asks for feedback!! !!

That is their advice and so if she is truly unfocused it does not determine her compatibility with a career. It doesn't meet at any point I'm messy at work but I've directed student films and am currently a project lead for a student production video game. I've been asked by teachers to teach their class in their absence so could I be a teacher? apparently am I disorganized and occasionally unfocused? yes
I think I gave her the right advice. She needs to switch majors. You can only pile up so many F's before you become a problem and lose your way.
Funny I don't lie but if someone asks me for advice I don't put it in a way that will just lead them to reject the notion if I want them to take my advice so basically it makes no sense. Keep going ...
I don't know where the low self-esteem thing comes from. I think people might think I'm arrogant.
You have to understand, I like to write and if people ignore my advice, that doesn't really matter to me. I don't try to build relationships online. [/quote]
Arrogance is a sign of low self esteem its an overcompensation for the lack of it. There is other places to write where you wouldn't be trying to offend people. Novels, Screenplays, Blogs, etc all do not require social interaction. That is sad for you about not building relationships online I have a friend who I met online and never met him personally when everybody wasn't around he was the guy I turned to. When I ran into debt he was one of the first guys who just sent me a blank check and said "dude whatever you need, take it man" I never took it but in the end I've found online or offline friends are of the same value.

So your frustrated intellectually so you bash other people well I'm sorry your having a hard life. In the end NT do not "exchange" in the way you've presented in the forum and while your writing style is particularly good I find the thought behind them rather lacking but I do not expect most people to figure out the problems in your reasoning. On the High IQ AS forum why not create your own then you invite only the members you want there or discipline as you see fit at least then you won't come back every time and start bashing people to make up for your deficiencies.

I have no particular feeling for you whatsoever. My name is Brandon and I live in AZ which is nowhere near LPP's location. You can continue to think that though and yes you went crazy because every time you posted I put the flaws in clear sight. You then stated you were leaving because "everyone was discriminating against you because you were a smart woman" The truth is your opinions haven't come a long way since then I think its possibly time to confront the demons in your past that make you lack so much self esteem.
I'm sorry the Hi-I.Q. thread insulted you so much, that it has stayed in your mind all these months. This must be "Le Petit Prince", you sound like him.
But your posts on this thread are corrosive and thinly disguised rambling insults.
I'm sorry, I know it's rude but I'm going to stop responding to you. You're just making stuff up now.

yes I know the truth hurts and when someone doesn't use a bunch of BS words to make themselves sound intelligent its kind of alien to you. Anyway have fun ...
As a note to op: as you see here people like her are just here to cause drama and when they are confronted by a person who doesn't get upset about it they leave. Obviously not excusing her actions she has had a lot of difficulty in life and her bashing people is simply an attempt to make up for those times she felt like nothing. You will find alot of people who have the same qualities ignore them.
I kind of want to see other people disagree with her just to see if she claims they are LPP as well. I'm clearly from the Lebanon even though my pictures are all up on the most attractive aspie thread ( shameless self promotion I know) and the post a pic.

I wrote that that forum (I believe it was Dating & Love) was dominated by adolescent male AS and hostile to women.
This was after there was a thread by male virgins demanding that the women on the site who had sex stop posting in the forum about sexual experiences they'd had.
I don't lack so much self-esteem that I would cling to my memories of that particular thread in the way you clearly have. And it was MY thread.
Look, the male virgins who were threatening to kill themselves because they were jealous they'd never had sex and were traumatized by hearing women discuss their sexual and dating experiences, were dominating the Dating & Love forum with very immature and ineffective advice.
I'm sorry you were so emotionally troubled by that thread. You shouldn't have felt back then that you had to threaten to kill yourself because you're not getting laid and while some of us women on this site are.
I left that forum and haven't posted on there at all. I don't give sex advice. I recognize that some AS males are very troubled sexually about their social isolation. I have let that forum be and haven't tried to intrude on their issues.
You obviously have residual emotional baggage from that thread. You should really let go of your resentment of me.
