| Probably number 2. Number 3 seems entirely out of the question, given the information available. But who do you get along with best, and do they have to have Asperger's? It's completely and utterly a personal choice, and I wish you the best in your search for the right woman. I limit myself to othe... |

| Christine Lakinski was disabled. Spent all the 50 years of her life being bullied and chided for her disability. Coming home from a shopping errand she stumbled and fell, she was surrounded by young men who urinated on her, shed water on her, one of them went home to fetch some shaving foam to spre... |

| I got out there and really played the social field. It was a hit or miss, trial and error, and I learned from those. It's all about refining your social abilities in the context of your own experiences. That's why most self-help books are rarely useful to anyone. You have to be docile all the while.... |

| I used to have the problem of being far more articulate in my postings. But I started making a conscious effort of turning my thoughts into voice, and projecting that. Now, my typing voice and literal voice are one in the same. I'm much clearer, and far more articulate, when I write. I have a diffic... |

| Learn to control impulses. There's no other way. You'll have to suffer until it becomes natural to say: "No, not right now, later, there's work elsewhere to be done." |

You know . . . I would've made Sophie a noble in my Aspergian Empire without a second's hesitation.
Guess I'll have to erect a temple or shrine in her honor instead someday. |

Well I doubt it beats my fashion sense.

Click here for more information. It's a journal entry from someone who went to school with Sophie. |

Her last weeks of life were spent having a distorted perception of WP, and the people on it that she had friendships with.
Plus, Michael (CrimsonKing) posted here. That was her only true boyfriend, and the one man who gave her true, genuine happiness. This thread has every right to be up. |

| I knew Sophie through MSN for a few months. She's the person who challenged me to take cough medicine so I could get through the social days unscathed. She gave me a list of various kinds that would best do the trick. And you know what? It worked. I used to watch her on webcam. She'd just sit there,... |

| Dance mostly. But if I find the music inexcusably poor, I leave. Nothing worse than hearing LOUD music you loathe for HOURS. I spare myself and leave early in that case. There have been a few occasions where I just flatout can get down with the beats (mainly 80's pop rock and whatnot). |
