I'm here to make friends.
What is your first name? Jessica
Age: 25
Location: Michigan, USA
Hobbies and Interests: reading, (books and also researching random topics) journaling, music, animals, spirituality and metaphysics
Why are you here? Recently self diagnosed with aspergers and relieved to have the opportunity to communicate with people that I can relate to
When were you diagnosed?(skip if you don't have a disorder): been diagnosed everything but aspergers. I've mainly identified with borderline personality disorder, adhd, and social anxiety.
Favorite subjects: I actually enjoyed all subjects in school, but history/social studies not as much as the rest.
Year/Grade: n/a
Favorite music: lots of 90s-ish stuff, (nine inch nails, tool, a perfect circle, nirvana, incubus, jack off jill) some "emo"-ish stuff, (brand new, bright eyes) new-wave/darkwave/80s, (the cure, depeche mode, tears for fears, joy division, new order) lots of electronica, (boards of Canada, the knife, the faint, Ladytron, fischerspooner) not much classic rock but I do love pink Floyd.
Movies/tv shows: game of thrones obsessed. Breaking bad was amazing. Lots of cartoons (Steven universe, adventure time, rick and Morty) and also love Seinfeld. Favorite movie is Donnie darko. There are others that I really liked, but for some reason I don't watch movies very often.
Books: house of leaves, pretty much anything Kurt Vonnegut, lots of spiritual/new age books
Instrument: none
Do you like sports? Nope. Tried playing soccer for a few years and I sucked. Hard for me to understand how people enjoy watching sports.
Family: mom, dad, brother. My brother is almost certainly an aspie as well.
Clothing: leggings (because jeans are just cruel) or long skirts with t shirts or loose tank tops. Pretty much only wear the colors blue, purple, pink, some shades of green, and neutrals (mostly black.) Hate the color red and always have.
How did you find this website? Researching aspergers.
Job: recently quit my job as a dog walker, which was heartbreaking. But the way the business was run really upset my mental health. Unemployed and feeling lost currently. Wondering if I can find a job that won't lead to meltdowns.
Plans for the future? Hopefully continue to work with animals. Considering volunteering at a shelter until I can find a job.

Nope, it's to get to know each other better. And an Aspie definitely can date another Aspie.

I already dated an Aspie Girl for 8 years, we lived together for 7 years. She was a real pill, egocentrism is a mofo.

One example doesn't make it impossible. Some relationships work out and some don't. It depends on the individuals; all Aspies don't get along the exact same way.

AlienElfGirl, you described your first name as 'something which doesn't describe you at all'. I feel the same way about the name I was originally given. It does not suit me. This is why I use a different name.
