I was diagnosed with Asperger's but I actually chose to refer to myself as Autistic instead of "aspie". I actually have friends diagnosed with Classic Autism and I don't see much of a difference between myself and them except they have speech issues and I don't.

Oh jeez dude really? I don't have insurance but I'll investigate it further, can gallstones kill you? I've already had my appendix out so It defently isn't that. Thanks for your reply it was really helpful. I don't think they can kill you unless one backs up into your liver. If that happens your ey...

Not all autistic relationships are AS/NT. You forgot to factor people like me who are in AS/AS relationships or AS/other disability relationships. Autism spectrum people do find love amongst each other quite often :-) The overwhelming preponderance of male aspies though makes that impossible for ma...
