A girl I am interested in may have Asperger's

Post Reply New Topic

There's a girl in my university who I have known since highschool who I suspect could have Asperger's. The only problem is that from what I can tell her social skills are pretty good. She had a boyfriend for a long, long time but I think now they've broken up. I know she does have some kind of disability because she's regestered through my uni's disabilities centre because we both write our exams through the centre. How can I tell if she has Asperger's without asking her, because it would be pretty embarassing if that's not what she has and I am not completely certain she even has AS.

She may just have a learning disability. That would also explain being able to take tests in private.

Why do you want to know?

Good question. Why does it matter? If you like her, and you'd like to go out with her, why not just talk to her, take her out, or hang with her. Whether or not she has Asperger's isn't really material, is it?

What signs is she showing that is aspie?


It just shows how normal people look but we will never guess they aren't NT either unless we see them in the disability thing. Then we all know he or she has something.

...Why do you want to know so badly..?
She probably wont appriciate you snooping
around her personal buisness the first you
do - if you like her, try to get to know her
and become friends or something - i mean,
if you like her you like her no matter what she
"is"...i`m a little uncomfortable i notice with
this "them" and "us" and "normal" and all
that, we`re all people and non of us chooses
how we turn out, its a crapsgame. If i met a
girl and we both liked each other, but then
she suddenly told me that she had to leave
since i "had" something it turned out, it would
make me very sad and i would loose alot
of respect for that person for being so fixated
or something on it.

Live and love screw the labels
Good luck

Why does it matter? If you like her, go for it, and if it works out, it'll come up in conversation.
