A new one...

Post Reply New Topic

Hi everyone,

I am new here and so should introduce myself. I am a 31 year old dutch salesperson of outdoor gear. I am fairly active on a dutch aspie forum, because well I am an aspie. Only on that forum some loved ones are also active and I needed a place more to myself. Not for any evil reasons, but just because an aspie-aspie relationship can get hard and sometimes I have to vent. Did I mention I have a girlfriend who is also an aspie?

I got my diagnosis at 25 after a long depression and have a very light form, so I do not always fit in with the hardcore aspies. Some days I even doubt my diagnosis, but I always come to the conclusion that it is correct.

Some other things about me:
- I like mountaineering, but don't climb as much since I have my girlfriend
- I like chess, but I'm not very good
- I like music, but I don't play anything but cd-player
- I am reasonably irritating, because I always want my view to come across and be understood.

Well, for the rest I am not that interesting...

p.s. Hanwag is my favourite brand of mountaineering boots...

Mountaineering, not so much now a mother, Chess not as good as I could be, music love lots - also only play CD player and yes too:
"reasonably irritating, because I always want my view to come across and be understood. "

So your not alone
