| Hi BubbaHoTep, welcome to WP. I'm fairly new here too, hope you enjoy the place. I agree about what you said "To all young aspies, hang in there. Life does get better." I think that's true. I'm approaching 50 and my worst years were my school/college years, I think it's the time in a person's life w... |

Oh, that is soooo beautiful. It reminds me of a stained-glass window, if you know what I mean.  |

Cats and animals in general
Art (this is a fairy new one, only the past couple of years)
The weather
computers, that one's waning a bit now
mythology, especially Greek
I'm not sure of the difference between an interest and an obsession. |

So if you are trying to determine their desires in that regard, ofcourse you cannot determine it because they do not even know themselves'. Sorry, not sure how you do the quote thingy.

Definitely!
I can manage 'out' for a few hours if it's somewhere with not too many people around. A walk on the beach, something like that is good. But I'm always glad to get home again.

| Thanks everyone, for your thoughts and ideas about this. I don't know, I think I was better at this as a kid than I am now, or maybe just braver. I find social situations sometimes easier than others, depending what mood I'm in. (Do other Aspies find that?) Sometimes they are like torture and I long... |

| Thanks everyone, for such a warm welcome. I must say that this is a very friendly site. Cats, well, they have always been a bit of an obsession! I collect cat pictures and pottery cats too, so our home is a bit like a temple to the cat goddess :lol: We have two of the little critters, both black and... |

| Hello everyone, :) I'm so glad I found this place. At last, people who understand :D I need some advice re: social situations, and figure you guys are the ones to ask.
