I'm jealous, in the UK we don't really get different flavours. We have smooth, crunchy, wholenut and that's about it usually, unless I'm missing something. Though we do have a chocolate peanut spread that's amazing, Sun Pat Choc o Nut, but that's more of a chocolate spread. Peanut and chocolate is ... |

How does he react to this by the way? With me, if I feel a teacher is out of line, or the school is wrong, I end up going in there all guns blazing. I'm not allowed to deal with the school teachers no more lmao. |

I felt that way with my Aspie husband All The Time. Before diagnosis, he would bury me with data, talk over, and say it in the most superior, William F Buckley monotone voice. The Royal WE. This was for everything from the type of bread we should buy to more serious things. I finally blew, and I me... |

It's just so frustrating. As you know from past posts, we've had issues in our relationship. They seem to die down, then flair back up again. Just now she said she was going to buy him some sweets for after school. I said "Ok, cool. But could you have a word with him about his answering back an... |

Feeling deflated and a little annoyed at the moment after a pretty nasty argument with the girlfriend. It all started because she got a text message from our local clinic saying our son could have a free flu vaccination. She knows how I feel about certain vaccinations, and this one in particular was... |

I think you have to attend your brother's wedding. It's not just that your family expect you to attend. You need to attend to maintain your connection to your family, which is a constant going through your life. Problem then becomes how to get there 100 miles away. How much is the rail fare anyway?... |

I responded to and commented as if the post had just been posted when it fact it was years old. So I figured that idiot moment was bad enough. I might have to just forgive myself for this one. :D Well, yesterday my girlfriend said to me: "Babe, what's CO2 it's Carbon Dioxide right?", I re... |

Being bullied isn't a trait, lol. I know, that's why I put it in quotation marks! :D It's just that in every book, article and web page I've read on this subject (quite a number now), bullying is ALWAYS listed as one of the main issues for people with ASD. And one of the main things that makes me d... |

Being bullied isn't a trait, lol. Being bullied is a result of being a "misfit". We don't fit in very well, we're usually the "quirky" ones. We're easy targets, and we generally either don't retaliate, or over retaliate. Either way, we look like fools and end up the laughing stoc... |

Yep. Just now in my other post I mentioned by brother. For years I had problems. I was undiagnosed. I struggled with a lot of things, and sometimes explaining them to family was difficult. I didn't even know what was wrong. I battled many situations, feelings and emotions helpless because I didn't k... |

I can very cunning, and manipulative. It's not in my nature to lie, but I can use a lie to get into or out of a situation and I am very convincing. I used to tell lies to see how far I could fool someone, and then forget to tell them I was fooling them. I don't lie regular though, if anything I seem... |

He's getting married some 100 odd miles away, I have told him I can not attend. There's multiple reasons. Financially I'm living in real poverty. I can barely af... |
