| Here's one thing I've noticed about myself: I think out loud. Like, a lot. It usually happens when I'm stressed, or when my mind wanders. If I'm thinking about a social situation where I'm a key player in the discussion (be it an argument, a presentation, or even even past conversations that I've a... |

| I got tired a couple of hours ago so I went to bed for a nap and I got trapped in a hideous nightmare where I could hardly breathe or see where I was going as my vision kept blacking out, I fumbled around and grabbed the pavement to find my way around and it was so terrifying, I thought I was dying... |

| Has anyone ever moved out on their own and even if they have a job or whatever they go to and people they talk to at said job or maybe not a job (My case i psych rehab.) and maybe they can socialize there, but when you're not there you don't really know where else to go for socialization or to meet... |

| The special education teacher has me so frustrated, she's been doing secret tests I knew nothing about all year, some on material my child never saw before because apparently she doesn't speak to the math teacher about students progress. And I can't get someone else. My child is NT but with LD, she... |

| I've been told I'm not supposed to cry, And don't understand why this is a big deal. Generally, I cry if someone does something nasty to me that I don't understand. Occasionally I might be angry, but if they set out to mislead and be mean, it's confusing and usually I'd cry. It's been awhile since ... |

| I've actually read in a few places that our suicidal ideation and depression is not as a result of being on the spectrum but being isolated because of our traits. It's even mentioned in this controversial essay by John Elder Robinson about autistic men and child porn. http://www.psychologytoday.com... |

It noted in various research articles that people with AS are more likely to be suicidal or experience depression, however it argued this was due to the condition itself which I cannot seem to agree ... |

Simple.
Bring a box of ice cubes, go up to the person you with to see and drop them in front of him/her, then say "Now that I've broken the ice..." then just start whatever conversation you like! It's perfect! |

You really want man?
Just be upfront and honest, ask him to go on a date.
Oh and don't expect him to pay for everything unless he insists, that's a real turn off. |

| To be honest I am surprised some of you would do a one night stand simply because you never had the sex before. I have always been under the impression that women do have very high standards before committing to such a thing, but from the comments noted it doesn't appear to take much at all if the b... |
