"NT" is short for "neurotypical" and means people who don't have AS when it's used here, friend.

and welcome to WP.

8O You've just succinctly summed up exactly how I've felt my whole life. Where's a "notworthy" smiley when you need one?

Hello?? Did everyone go home?


Hi! This is Ghosthunter. I am intrigued
by the possibilities to explore a different
point of view.

Hmmmmm?

First, we will start with you!

1)...NT, no problem, what NT things
do you do that your partner did not?
HMmmmm?

Second, I will address your partners
traits?

What exactly made her a Aspie?
• Verbal?
• Eye contact?
• Physical movements?
• Hmmmm? I will let you
add further details here....

and WELCOME TO WRONGPLANET.

I hope you enjoy your experience
here. It is always good to have a
NT point of view. I am HFA, thus
the bug-eye'd alien of this AS sight.
Their are few of us here, but I am
not scared to ask and probe, it helps
me understand AS, NT's, ASD's, ect....

Hmmmmmm?
Why did they leave you?
Was it something you did, or didn't do?
Was it something they did, or didn't do?

Hmmmmmmm?
Ghosthunter

P.S.....
NT is for "Neurotypical" or average person!
AS is for "Aspergers" or non-expressive
person in a NT world, "drummer with their
own beat".
HFA is for "Higher Form of Autism", or one
who had a disability(usurally non-verbal
related) thus delayed learning, and all turns
out as normal as possible. They tend to
have the tendencies to question and express,
and others won't, but their is a decisively
different path they will follow.

People you might want to talk to.....
BeeBee(NT mom)
Pyraxis, Scoots, Elfman, and a score
of others that would enliven your day
and maybe inspire you?

Hmmmmm?

Sorry for the delay, I was out of town for 2 weeks, but yes I would love to get some feedback from all of you. But it will take some time to fill you in as you will need to know the whole story. Are you really interested in spending the time?

I can only speak for myself, and getting to know
new and old members is one of my favorite
things on this site. So! by all means fill in
the background!

Sincerely,
