there's a few people who I think might be Aspies, but I don't know if there is anyone else like me. one of my friends thinks she's an Aspie, but she doesn't have any of the major signals.

I have a friend who graduated last year that I highly suspect has Aspergers.

I've never approached him about it because I didn't even know what Aspergers was until last month, but I remember being attracted to him because he seemed to have exactly the same issues as I did.

I should ask him about it.

One of my friends has it but does not know I do....
I suspect one of my friends might have it, but it'd be awkward to ask.
There is this guy at my school, who does the morning weather announcements, who I know is an Aspie for a fact...but I don't know how to approach him, it'd be strange...

According to the chart of everyone in my academic resource class, I'm the only one with Asperger's Syndrome. Everyone else is either autistic or this other three-letter thing that I can't remember, nor do I know what it is. It begins with an S or something.

Ya, there are a few aspie and autistic kids in my school. All of them are a lot different then me, and aren't nearly as social as me. I don't talk to them.

almost EVERYONE of my friends is disabled. They all have either aspergers, autism, tourettes, Bi-Polar or ADHD. Its much more common than you think. Of course, we are all alike so thats kinda why we have bonded so much. I guess we are still the minority.

All alone at my school as far as I know and its a relatively large school. I'm not even sure what I would do if I found out that someone at my school was autistic.

Same here. It'd be nice.

It truly depends on the person though. I know an aspie kid at my school, and she backstabbed me (though she kinda sucked at it

)

A few of my other friends have depression and anxiety disorders like I do, and one has a brother with Autism.
