*tall, gangly and asymmetrical
*physically ungraceful
*prone to saying things which piss people off no matter how hard I try to please
*muscular lower body, and [for my age] taut upper body
*kind to a fault
*non-conformist to a fault
*slightly warped sense of humor
*loyal to a fault
*old-fashioned about lots of things [music, lifestyle]
*perseverates [but not as bad as he used to]
*has a very dirty mind
*has no social currency whatsoever, the antithesis of "hip"
*is a hermit living in a tin can out in the woods away from civilization
*prefers diet foods, healthy foods after decades of abusing his body with rich foods
*forces his lazy bones to get up and get outside and exercise until dripping sweat

many others but I don't want to be too boring.

Hmm I can understand where those people are coming from because I was one of them at one point but you have a good way of how to deal with it. Recognizing what you might need to improve on socially is good as well as listing your good qualities so your self-esteem doesn't go down any further while you're doing it. I believe it bettering yourself without having to change who you are. You made a good point.

Complaining about people complaining, Sarah? You're hardly exempt from complaining, yourself. I think maybe you should get off your high horse. 99% of your posts are either one-liners that have nothing to do with anything, or complaining about what others say.

And I ain't listing jack. Sorry.

You will not see me complaining about this as I know I am at fault for my current situation, but here are my qualities that I can think of:

Negative:
-Stubborn-"My Way Or The Highway Attitude"
-Selfish At Times
-Not caring about pop culture/TV shows, celebrities, etc
-Grumpy/Irritable in the mornings and after exercising
-Easily frustrated and yell too much
-Aloof
-Alienation from peers for several years

Positive:
-Honest
-Can laugh a lot
-Smile a lot
-Friendly to many animals (though there are exceptions)
-Have a weird sense of humor at times
-Not too demanding on appearances
-Loyal

Um, why is camping an issue? You don't see an average aspie liking to camp and hike 16 miles carrying 20 pound of weight everyday! If you are you referring to camping as in fps games, learn how to flank.

Awesome thread. Down with whining.

The Good:
-Funny
-Have been told I'm good looking
-Sharp wit
-Intelligent
-Career focused
-Can be graceful for short periods of time before I trip over something
-Tough
-Extremely honest
-Generous
-Cool in a crisis

The Bad
-Hot tempered
-Jealous, if I have deep feelings about someone
-Easily annoyed
-Defensive about my own time and space
-Impatient

I don't think the winning is the worst part, its bad but the worst is the whole 'its not my fault its the aspergers' thing so many have going on. Guess what aspergers is you. Stop lame excuses and get something done or give up and stop complaining.

I never blame my asperger. I blame my eccentric personality. plus I don't even have asperger I have pddnos

Does it feel good being a social enforcer? I've been tempted to join the crowd and rag on all the lame whiners so I can feel a little better about my own whining which is at least a little bit more valid because hey... at least I'm not blaming Ass Burgers. I'm so above that. I can own up to the fact that I'm just a loser at life because I suck and not blame anyone else ever.

But really, by your response it does sound like talking from the heart. So I'm sure you know the feeling

But isn't complaining what it's about when it's an Aspie website and a Love and Dating forum? BTW, a lot of antagonism on this thread. Me likey.

All Love forums are full of complains, not just the WP one.

I am totally aware of my shortcomings and that the main behind my difficulties is due to me, my personality, my childhood, my genes, my circumstances, my lack of exp - I don't blame it on someone else.

Not going to list anything because the OP is obviously a troll ("I go on here mostly to make fun of said complainers" --> her own words) so she gonna use whatever personal info you admit to troll you later.

I hate to break it to you, but I have no strong opinion of you nor do I dislike you/like you. You're not that special.

I'm trustworthy
I'm caring
I'm considerate
I have a good sense of humour
I'm artistic -I love to draw
I'm smart-I'm told that I think very logically
I'm a friendly person

Now the flaws that I have
I am really sensitive
I tend to only see things black or White there is no gray so basically it's either right or wrong no maybes
I have trust issues wit my family and peers
I can b judgemental of others at times
I worry about what peers think about me (silly I know) I have been like that since I was 12
I have an opinion but I am a bit afraid to express it.

I think this is a great thing to do because listing all the positives about yourself makes u feel good because u forget at times and looking at the bad things makes me realise how silly I am.Well this is my opinion

I'm a very cautious

The Good:

I'm fairly clever and skilled at my major interests in life (Science and writing).

The Bad:

I'm an emotional wreck quite frequently.

The Ugly:

I'm a bitter, misanthropic little prick. Or a misogynist, if you prefer, as the two seem to be the same thing around here.
