| I keep the job because I can afford to pay the bills and the big read health insurance flag. One thing about being a drone in a large corporation is the benefits are generally quite good. But you're right. Every day I sit down to begin I feel like a few more bits of my soul have shriveled away and I... |

| There are also heterosexual people who live in common-law relationships. I suppose I wouldn't really feel too bad about excluding them with a poorly-worded thread name - they CAN get married but choose not to. You know I was really getting in to the discussion until you made a point of dissing unma... |

| Surely out of the 105 people that have viewed this post, more than one person can think of something to help. Well the thing of it is Aspie's perception of a friends and an NT's perception of a friend are usually not the same. One of the books I have about Autism/Asperger's actually has a chapter n... |
