Theres a club if you want to go , you could meet somebody who really loves you. So you go and you stand on your own and you leave on your own and you come home and you cry and you want to die.

Clubs aren't a good place to go meet people. Well, they are a good place to meet crappy people.

Don't know if it's particularly Aspie. I've know many non-Aspies who loved the Smiths to the point it was unhealthy. But that said. I'm happy to indulge myself:

most of his lyrics are about being a socially awkward loner though. I think alot of NT's have a period of lonliness in their lives (their awkward teenage years etc) and like the smiths because of that. With us our awkward years are more permanant though.

I think if i went to a club and saw a load of popular nt's copping off to the smiths it would be too much for me and i would have to retreat forthwith.

Yeah that lyric basically is the Aspergers nightclub experience. I've decided to stop subjecting myself to it until i have someone to go with. Doing stuff alone sucks.

Just had a click on the link to your blog there and it's pretty cool. 8)

I've known NTs who wouldn't go to a club alone because the experience of being such an outsider in such a hyper-social situation is unnerving and haunting for them as well. Anyone can feel isolated in a crowd, and be deeply impacted by that. We're all social creatures and that experience of being invisible to others in a place that's suppose to be about seeing other people is a shock to anyone's psyche. I just think between NTs and Aspies, we Aspies are more confused by it. NTs would better understand why they feel that way.

I go a lot of places alone, but they are the kind of places at are friendly to people who are alone--museum, early showing of movies, cafes at non-peak hours. You'd be surprised how many people do stuff by themselves. But some places I would never go by myself, like most clubs. Pretty much anything where there's a lot alcohol being consumed is not a good thing to go to alone, whether it's a club or a wedding reception or what have you. If you're invisible to them sober, you'll being completely non-existent to them drunk! :roll:

Anyhow, the Smiths....
