it's not even a possible lack of sense, or his circuitous thinking that gets to me. it is his utter lack of empathy for other people on the forums, but yet he has an expectation that everyone else will show empathy towards him. if you try to help him understand, he gets angry and throws around blame and threatens to do bad things. i've never encountered this kind of personality in real life, and clearly i have no idea how to approach a discussion with him.

I did read social hstory from the time and people were more respectful of each other then more then they are now.

Anyway I don't have time to read, I am too busy trying to have a life. Get yourself a diagnosis, then I will take your words and advice. No? Then don't talk about what you may not know anything about.

Ta Ta.

Hey, don't attack happymusic, she did nothing to you.

Yeah, an undiagnosed Aspie giving me advice! I die with laughter. :lol:

How does an Asperger's diagnosis effect how valid your history knowledge is? Oh wait, it dosen't...

Advice would be taken more seriously if the person giving it had the same condition.

Don't f*****g play the diagnosis card... It's lame and stupid. :evil:

Good grief, no wonder I don't come here and ask for advise anymore.

Of that second list, the only things that I would *need* are 1 and 5-9. I can cook and clean for myself (and I keep on being told that such is an attractive quality to the ladies but I see no direct evidence of that). Not to mention that i'd love to cook up a nice meal for her some time. What's not on the list that would be nice (though not required): let me hold her once in a while, to compliment me when i do something worth complimenting (although i guess that would fall under "be emotionally warm"), and to be inviting (that is, to make it clear that a romantic overture is what she desires, otherwise id be too scared to initiate anything for fear of rejection)

In a nutshell, the physical things can be left behind, but it's the emotional companionship i need...

Toad of Steel,

One would hope that if the required meeting of the hearts and minds exists between you and your partner, then it would seem natural that
she would want you to be tactile with her - i.e. kissing, holding hands, hugging, cuddling, caressing, and the like.

In my opinion, being tactile is just the physical affirmation of affection that one feels in your heart!

I'm curious of the ways you expect a woman to act and the things you expect a woman to do in a relationship.

You may use fictional characters as working examples if that is easiest.

Stimulating
Listening without judging
Acceptance and Affection
Caring
Kindness

SLACK!

As far as activities: sharing as much as possible would be enjoyable but I have my own life and don't ask of my partner to fulfill all my needs in that department.

Fictional characters...will get back on that one, I watch too much Sci Fi...

And people think the L&D is nasty these days...

Suddenly I'm very happy I'm not a woman :twisted:

I never really expected anything. I really hoped thou that I could find a woman who would give me a real chance & try to make the relationship work. What i mean by than is her coming to me with concerns or issues so I could try to work on things & that our relationship wouldn't be one-sided(her side). My girlfriend meets those criteria so I'm very happy.
