Mark, here's my prediction if you find all that success, you'll get bored and stressed from it all and all the value you got from it originally disappears and then you'll try to find another way to find that same value. Think about it. As a kid didn't you wish you'd get a job and find a home and not live homeless. Well, now that you are not homeless and have a job you were happy once about it, but then its value is lost and you face the reality of the stress of work. It's probably going to be the same with getting a relationship. It'll feel great at first, and then once all the emotions are put aside it get's serious, now you have to have chores, you have to get a job, you have to get a car, you have to be willing to listen, and the list gets bigger each time you have more of these things you want. I'm not saying it's not impossible to find happiness in love, but you need to be realistic about what you want.

I never had a love life, but if any sort of advice I'd say, is that get your life situated first and be happy first before you find a date, but I really don't know what to say. Hopefully this helps, and take what I say with a grain of salt.


I don't own my own home and my job has been stressful since day one. To be honest, I thought I was going to be a little boy forever.

^ you're not homeless though.
You have a steady job, which many people on the spectrum don't have.

I've recently determined that I really don't know how to be "nice" regardless of how much I try. I know I'm typically direct and blunt but what I say has sometimes been described as rude, demanding, and "stabby" :lol: despite having the opposite intention. I honestly have no idea how people do this and have taken it to be manipulation - being nice to someone in order to get what you need/want. Greetings and "how are you doing" are empty formalities. Of course, it doesn't help that I don't even know what I'm trying to say half the time between forgetting and thoughts being lost in translation...

^ You use up all your "nice" on WP.

I had this really awkward moment in the clinic today where I had to go out to the bathroom and then I couldn't remember which door to go back through, so I went to reception and mumbled something completely unintelligible to the receptionist, and somehow she understood me and said, "just come through here" but she went one side of the desk and I went the other and then I lost her, so I went through door 4 and it just happened to be the right one and I thought thank f**k for that. :roll:

:lol: I've forgotten what I'm doing and just happened to do what I needed without realizing, but then I've also ended up in the complete opposite place I was headed - ADHD much?

^ Thats your subconscious mind taking the reins.
That's how you can drive on autopilot and do lots of other stuff without even realising you're doing it.
Your subconscious is stubborn, by the sounds of it, and wants to go it's own way.

May as well enjoy it.

I was talking to the social worker and she grabbed my phone while I was trying to do something on it and closed all the tabs I had open.

How freaking rude is that??

Like, idk, but it seemed pretty rude to me.
I could have had nude selfies or anything open.
Not that I did, but I might have.

Then she shook her head and was like, "no one closes their tabs."

Well f**k you lady, maybe I wanted them OPEN.

^^ It was tempting, I can tell you.

Everyone seems to treat me like I'm two years old.
Spewing at that woman. :evil:

Yeah.
I have short term memory loss and verbal dyspraxia so I'd be pretty s**t at that too.
