Rage,

This is the FIRST time I bothered to read this. You are asking people with things like AS how to counteract a huge part of the problem. I went to no less than 4 classes for this! They were ALL run by IDIOTS that had less of a clue than I did. They were all, ironically divorced women that were ANGRY with MEN! For a teacher, I DON'T need a divorced woman that hates and doesn't understand men! For a teacher, I need a happily married man that really understands women. still, don't think I didn't give them a chance to prove themselves. SO, if I had no luck with "NT" teachers, how could I TRY to teach YOU?

I have a feeling I am better than most here, in this respect, but STILL NOT good enough!

I have received unconditional love before, but not romantic love, just friendship love. (The word has so many different meanings it gets really hard to describe. And I don't know the cartoon series so I can't tell if any of this is what you meant.)

In one case the person almost never says anything directly about it, it's just there in her actions. The other person we do talk about our friendship a lot. The problem is, in both cases the other person initiated and pursued the friendship while I did nothing for a long time until I figured out how to respond. One friendship was started offline because a person thought since I was weird I might be interesting, and the other friendship started online when the person thought I resembled what she was like when younger and wanted to help me with some problems I had at the time. Both people feel like family members now.

Both happened at times when I was not looking for it. And both happened with the other person initiating all the contact. So unfortunately I haven't the foggiest idea how to help, and was reluctant to post this because it seemed kind of useless, just like "Yeah I have this but I don't know how to end up in this situation on purpose."

Some of your views might not even be from members who can comment. I lurked and read everyone's stuff for months before getting up the nerve to join.

As for finding true love...it happens when you least expect it or even when you are not even trying. You are still very young, so try not to get too down about it.

p.s. saying we are heatless may not sting the way you think it may...stating the obvious. I know very well I am heartless. I'm learning to accept it as a part of who I am and stop beating myself up about it. :wink:

Love and back topic

Where did you go? To find love? I love my kids; I am not sure how to love an adult. Maybe it has to grow, like a tree. Maybe it needs to be nourished like a plant. You have to spend time with someone and give the love a chance to grow. Let it happen. :)

This might work.
