I have gone through a life of difficulty with both communicating and directions. I have trouble with even the simplest tasks of talking to people or knowing what is appropriate to say half the time. For example, I will stutter because I do not know what to say, and then I might say something really stupid. I also can not remember the exact directions to certain places I have not had to go to in a while including a few street names.

Anyone have the same problems?javascript:emoticon(':)')

Hi. Welcome to Wrong Planet.

I, like you, have difficulties with communicating, too. People don't "get" me in real life and right here on these forums. Consequently, I get avoided and scolded, both in real life and on WP. It upsets me but I always have to consciously remember that it's part of the diagnosis of Asperger's Syndrome.

Welcome to Wrong Planet :D

You are not alone. I, too, get a little tongue-tied sometimes.
