My best friend is an aspie..

Post Reply New Topic

Well, despite all the quirkiness and his lack of social skills, me as an NT consider him my best friend. Why? Because of several reasons which I will try to explain here..
And as paradoxal it may seem, he makes me FEEL good and somehow I think I have the same effect on him..
We know each other now for a 5 years or so, (and only online) but in a way it is maybe better so. I live in a secluded area in France and he lives in some industrialised area in Germany so in a way maybe we should swap geographical location, and this situation is often source for humorous situations. I don't even know his real life name, and somehow it isn't that important. Over the last years we communicate on a daily basis.. I can tell exactly how he "feels" just by the way he constructs his phrases as some sort of ersatz for body-language one might say.. We now even came to a point we are able to complete each others phrases. Oh and I've been angry at him in the past, because of his "unwillingness" to cope or so, but in the end it isn't that important, because we do share... maybe not the burden, but at least the good moments, and for that my friend I want to thank you I know that I've could put this post in a private mail or so, but I just want to share this experience with other people too.. and if you read this, the spelling and grammar Nazi that you are, I tried my best to stay as correct as possibly. I know you will read this my friend, no need to respond though, for I know that deep inside you behind the fortress of your gaze, there is a smile. I just wanted to let you know how much I do appreciate you and I hope our friendship will last.

Cordially, MDK

Nice!! !

Very cool:) five years is a lot of time to gain a lot of trust.

What a great way you describe your friendship. You are both lucky to have one another.
