This is a topic I am deeply ashamed to talk about but I would really appreciate to know other people's opinion. During my school years, I created a fake personality which is more appealing than my real personality in order not to be judged. I read that this is very usual especially for aspie girls, ... |

It seems to me that generally people think that only males can get obsessive about a crush and become a stalker. Well, I used to be a proof that it's not true.. I don't know if this has something to do with aspergers or I am just stupid, but when I was a teen, I absolutely didn't understand boundari... |

For me, rubbing or playing with something can help not to burst in tears immediately. It's not the best strategy when you are in public, but you could put your hand in a pocket and rub your skin or flip your hand behind your back. I usually do this and try to somehow end the conversation quickly and... |

In my country bullying isn't rare at all, even normal students frequently get bullied. I was very lucky that my education was very important to my parents, so they always sent me to schools with good reputation where aggression wouldn't be tolerated, even though they had to drive me there for half a... |

It's normal to have such feelings. I am one year older than you and last year, I have been thinking about this a lot. Just like you, I have had just one friend in high school, I never went to parties or had a boyfriend. I can tell you for sure that if you really want to experience those things, you ... |

I'm one year older than you and I can relate to your feelings of being immature, especially emotionally and socially. When I am in public and talk to strangers or acquaintances, I really try to pretend being "normal", however most people would notice that I am very naive and don't know how... |

Do you sometimes think about returning to normal life when corona crisis is over? Do you have some plans or ideas? Do you want to learn something new, travel somewhere or participate on an event? I will start: I would like to learn ice-skating and travel to one neighbouring country. For me, it is a ... |

Mostly, I am not exactly terrified of them, but girls my age tend to be non-accepting and even cruel. During my school years, I have been ridiculed and even harassed by other girls, while boys mostly had pitty for me. Engineering school where girls are a minority has been salvation for me. However, ... |

Hi, I used to study maths on my own through entire high school, especially calculus has been my little passion. Now, I have enough maths at university so I don't do it as a hobby but I still enjoy solving problems. I would like to be your friend. |

This is still a big problem for me. All people I used to call friends have tried to manipulate, take advantage of or simply ditch me at some point. I think the reason is that I don't know how to make friends. I never try to befriend someone who seems sympathetic, but I simply wait for someone who wo... |

This is definitely true for me, I even have had people laugh at me for writing ''novels'' when a short message would be enough. I also rarely use emojis, so people sometimes consider my texts weird. However, I do this only when it is a single message. In a longer conversation, I often don't know wha... |

In my opinion, although I consider this really unfair and shallow, being attractive makes your life much easier. As child and teenager, I have been an ugly duckling, I didn't take care of my appearance at all, even to the point that I wore washed-out clothes and had a monobrow. I had a really low se... |

My realized that someone stole my bike. :cry: I am really shocked because it has been secured by a strong lock and I have been leaving it in the same place for more than a year. As every day I went to check it and all bikes which were parked in the lot disappeared :( It's not just the money, but I h... |
