| @musicboxforever, I'm sorry you had that experience - nothing about it sounds "innocuous" to me. I hope you're able to put it behind you. *hugs* Thanks, i'm beginning to feel like it's going to be ok. I feel sorry for him, i genuinely mean him no ill will. It really helped to get people's different... |

| It's an interesting idea though.......as girls tend to play hard to get and give mixed messages as a normal part of the courtship ritual, how does an Aspie find the happy medium between taking a playful "no" too seriously, and assuming "no" is meaningless and therefore stalking? Hmm that's a good q... |

| There's no one reason why someone would stalk someone else. Like anything in life, everyone takes different routes to get to the same place. Anyone putting simple explanations to something so complex are just plain wrong ( like that first post, delusional i think someone put it down to, what?). Of ... |

| How difficult is it to understand the words "leave me alone, do not contact me again!" They may think you mean for the rest of the day. So they stop contacting you and then start again the next day. I had a hard time understanding "again" as a kid so my mom had to tell me "Not today, not tomorrow, ... |

| I've found this thread very interesting. I actually left WP because I had an online stalker. Although he doesn't consider himself to be a stalker. Even after I gave him advice not to comment on absolutely everything on my facebook wall. He then started to send me personal messages on facebook about ... |

| I've just had another thought. If I was standing up for something I believed in like fighting for a right, say along the lines of Suffaragettes fighting for Women's rights, that sort of thing, I reckon I would rather be right than give up my belief. |

| Good question. This is something that I come across alot with my parents. Mostly they would rather be right than yeild to the other's opinion and keep the peace. My sister is different. You know that she disagrees with you when she goes quiet and from her point of view the conversation is over. She ... |

| I honestly don't know. I haven't persued an official diagnosis because I don't think it would particularly change my life in any way. I know that most of my family are quite possibly on the spectrum. Only my cousin is officially diagnosed. Autistic behaviours are normal to me. I don't want a label e... |

| I think that the rules referred to by the OP are subtle. It's not that your mother sits you down and gives you a list one day. Rather you pick up on things that she says or her actions over the years. If she seems to be repelled by a certain kind of man the daughter may pick up on this. Perhaps a gu... |

| I feel like it is childish to just ignore someone. The problem is that he is a very polite young man. He has similar problems to me when I was younger, he has been diagnosed with AS and I only have mild traits and major social problems. I am an idiot. I jump in feet first and try and be supportive t... |

Hmmmm, It's very rare that I get invited anywhere. I feel like just giving up on people. I just don't get how friendships are supposed to work. My sister just seems to get along with people so easily.  |

| Okay, I didn't know him very well and added him on Facebook. Last time I'm going to do that. My fault. He's doing things like reading my list of bands I like and then emailing me to ask what my favourite song is. But it's not a one line email, it's a whole page telling me about stuff about him I don... |

I like someone that I find interesting enough to be around. I find it very hard to meet people that I can comfortably have reciprical co... |

| I'm not sure what the best way of expressing this is. I find that the people who make an effort with me are not people that I want to be friends with. They tend to be people who bore or annoy me. (man that makes me look mean.) But the people I want to be friends with are not as ready to email me or ... |
