Then bloom. Once you bloom, no one will care one whit if you bloomed late. Only people who know you might know you bloomed late, and then they will be happy you bloomed. You can continue to post the same post here twice a day and never do anything about your situation, or you can do something. Go bl...

If you read what he said, he said "money is idealized above all else". If you think about it for a minute, you'd see the connection he's making. The issue is with attempting to connect that trait to Zionism. Zionism is irrelevant to why our society commodifies everything. There is no conn...

What does Zionism have to do with your inability to form friendships? Did you read what I posted? Yes, you just failed to layout an argument that supports the idea that Zionism is at fault for your social struggles, or even for the values that you blame for your social struggles. a) The values you'...

It's a silly argument.

Still no update on the Human Rights complaint filed November 11. I sent the company this email today: Hello, I was contacted about this opportunity approximately 3 months ago. I was interested, however I was not going to bring along a 'guardian' as indicated in the email. I've had many positions in...

I will actually try to be helpful and practical in responding to you. I'm 65. No one looks forward to aging, but it happens to everybody. You will roll with it. What you are really scared of is losing your looks. As a man, I can't speak to it personally, but I have watched how both of my wives aged ...

I'll bet that since she just transferred to a new school, she would welcome having a friend she already knows there.

If she gets wind that you are there and you do not reach out to her, what is she going to think of you then?

You miss 100% of the shots you do not take. Just be her friend.

If you are asking this particular question, then you probably already know the answer. Start to take action now.

Yes but only if you make it change. If you don't, it won't. The choice is yours. You are not helpless or hopeless.

At some point you are going to need to get a full time job. Without one you will be a ward of others well into your maturity. Don't you want to be independent? Also, without a job it will be WAY more difficult to attract women, as I am sure it already is for you.

There's nothing innate in having ASD that makes us good with computer coding and IT work. You still need a modicum of intelligence. That being said, it is the type of work where you are judged primarily on results, not on how other other people feel about you. It is the kind of job where you can jus...

I think you need therapy. Intentional disregard of personal hygiene could be a sign of mental illness.

I have an extremely demanding job (60-70 hrs a week) that, fortunately, I am very well compensated. Wife and I have had...

You really made $4 million last year? You ought to be able to pay for a very good lawyer and a very good therapist to give you the advice you need. I doubt anyone here can commiserate with your situation.

I have noticed a trend over the past 10 years. I mention something and someone basically says you are a stupid neckbeard go away you don't know what the f**k you are talking about. Then I see it pop up on Reddit or New York Times a few years later, but now it has a name and all that jazz. It seems ...
