Hi there, the name's Tim and I'm from the uk.
Please forgive me if I don't make much sense, I'm non too good at talking about myself.
Had been diagnosed with Apergers Syndrome for quite some time now - near enough 12-15 years now (I'm 21 lol), having lived with AS for most of my life I virtually come to terms with what it entails - high iq, poor levels of speech, addiction to certain things (my main thing is computer gaming lol) and not being able to take certain cues like body language or tone of voice properly.
On top of this I was diagnosed with Dyslexia and Dyspraxia as well as Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD for short) for a little over a couple of years now. Lovely mixture wouldn't you say?
Anyways... Having had 3 failed relationships (I started late) my latest ex (I miss her 
) pointed me to here, I was sceptical - as would anyone who had been searching for help 
(Trust me, don't believe everything you read 
) but I eventually come up with the guts to say "alright lets see what Wrong planet have to say".
In many ways I'm more mature than other non-AS people (have my mother to thank for that) and others... well - lets just say I totally **** things up (pardon language) and end up looking like a spoilt little brat (happens most often in rl relationships)
I'm currently aiming for my current dream - to work in a computer games developement company to tie in with what my specialist subject is, computer games. Even going to University to get the qualification - going well Merit overall in the first year 
.
Currently single... hate it totally... looking round seeing the couples is a distressing thing after a while... 
<- feel like doing that sometimes lol
Anyway, that's me done talking about absolutely nothing about myself...

Dude, you'll fit in here just fine. I think your ex was right to point you in this direction. You remind me of my son (he's only 10 now) but he has all the same diagnosis' as you, as well as Tourettes, and the same obsession/career goals.
