| What do you think? For me, even though I know what I am and learning what it was that makes me this way was very important to me, I choose to keep it to myself. I despites being labeled as this or that. People don't forget things, and what can be an innocent label can easily become a malicious one ... |

| By law previous employers actually aren't allowed to say anything bad about you as that would prevent you from finding a new job. I've spoken to a few employers about this and usually what they do is just confirm the date you started and the date you left, and make no comment about you as a person. ... |

| I always do. When I was younger I wore underwear but once I moved out on my own I started sleeping naked. I cant stand any kind of clothing, I toss and turn a lot and it ends up wrapping up around me tightly. On top of that I'm a human furnace, only in the coldest months can I use anything more than... |

| I did not end up going. I fought with myself up to the last minute and then bailed. Walking into a building full of people I dont know is already an extremely difficult task, but all this on top of it was too much. |

| My friend's brother died last week, I just found out late this week and he told me the funeral was today (Saturday) if I wanted to go. I've been freaking out about it ever since. Somehow in my 25 years on this planet I've managed to not go to a funeral for the last 10 or 15. Other than two family me... |

| Thanks for the input everyone, last night I felt like I was hanging from the edge of a cliff with one finger. A good nights sleep helped a bit. There's a lot of good advice her, and some I didn't want to hear -- but I knew I wouldn't like everything that was to be said. I suppose I do need to just c... |

| Just wondering how that is even offensive? Did he lose someone in a suicide bomb attack? I can't see how else anyone could possibly ever even start to find that offensive. Exactly what I was wondering. I dont see why this is such a big deal? Then again, I sometimes get stuck worrying about s**t lik... |

That statement there tells me that you never made enough of an effort to understand aspergers. None of this is a choice, we don't chose to have bad communicatio... |

| I hung out with an ex today, many years back we were close friends who eventually dated. She moved away and things kinda fell apart. Years have past and we see each other every now and then. Today was the first time in two years, before that we had hung out several times over the summer, but before ... |

| A few years back I hooked up with a random girl at a party. Not something that's at all in my character, but I was wasted and she was quite flirty. We continued to hook up for a few weeks but right from the start I knew something wasn't right, but I figured as long as I kept my heart out of it and j... |

| Just finished the date, had a good time. After lunch we came back to my place and played some video games for a few hours. All in all I had a good time, sweet girl and I have lots in common with her. Sadly I didn't feel much chemistry between us. Think she could make a good friend, but beyond that..... |
