They are talking about fictional character, not Sean Connery. |

| I agree that is very important but it is quite possible to do all that after you get a serious romantic relationship instead of before. This is fallacy. Ability to have a serious romantic relationship means you are already above threshold, did a good job at imrovement. I agree that usual self-help ... |

| Exercise requries both motivation and energy. If any of these 2 is a bit lacking in the moment, then it can lead to not wanting to exercise. There are a lot of efforts in the daily movements that we do, plus all the mental processing that goes on, sensory and emotional processing. Exercise is what ... |

| Can you objectively say that you are 100% confident if you would trade places with one of those 4 situation would be the same, one of them would spend as much time as you are doing your task and you would complete their task 2 hours early? We all work the same hours by the way (evenings). I don't al... |

| I'm proof that the tired clueshay advice will NOT work for everyone. Us Aspies can be very different from normal people in lots of ways & thus the typical advice given to normal people may not be rite for us. You are yet another proof that putting effort into personal growth, independence and h... |

| I'm not exactly rational at the best of times. I think what my problem is with making friends is that I find it difficult to not be too needy but not be too aloof. When I was younger I was on the needy side, which made people think I'm annoying or nosy. Because of a fear of social rejection, I thin... |

| I think of common interests as more like excuse, surface level for underlying bond. And it doesn't really matter if you adopt openminded approach, just stop focusing on interests and make it your goal to have a good time with friendly people in general. If this works for you, great. But please don'... |

Haha, this is basically what "The Breakfast Club" is about. |

| Actually, it seems to me that most friendships have multiple foundations, not just one. Common interests aren't everything, but they are an important bridge to friendship for most people. "Genuine interest in another person's wellbeing, feelings, identity" doesn't usually just pop up out ... |

| So there must just be a ''loose connection'' somewhere when it comes to me trying to make friends with other females. Every human interaction is part rational on the surface, part emotional - usually hidden. It might sound sexist, but NT males have this ratio or rational/emotional at about 60/40 an... |

| Focusing on common interests and stuff is a huge mistake. I was my mistake as well, I was really annoyed when I would join some interests group and people would barely spend any time on topic. Only years later I realized that subject matter is basically just an excuse and real connection is unspoken... |

It's funny truck drivers who have already invested time and money into getting CDL, already have all the paperwork, experience and been offered up to 30% salary raise are among those mill... |
