Hi Lula, nice to meet you. Smile You can just call me Sierra and I'm 16 as you can tell. Razz

I really feel you there. I have trust issues myself. Razz And these social anxieties, I think I have that too. Razz I think if I even just try to say "hi" to someone, they are going to lash out at me or go, "Um...whatever..." and ignore me.

Do you bump into people accidently or just for some reason walk into them? Heh, I do this sometimes. Razz

OW! Tell me where it hurts!

To be honest, I think with any person, even if they are NT, they need to be emotionally attached to that thing if they are going to be paying attention to it. Personally for me, I do have a hard time concentrating on home work when I am on the computer, I usually go on the internet and try to chat with people and get my social life together there.

Bi huh? Well I know that a woman with Asperger's can sometimes have many male traits. Such as them not being as catty as the NT women. At least, I haven't met any women with AS that are catty. Razz While I know that I am straight, I would rather be with a guy more then a girl, it seems as though fate is making me go that lesbian path. Razz I'm more comfortable with people of my own gender then the opposite. I'm just scared of some men.

Sorry for making some of this a bit short. I guess I'm some what stressed and tired right now. (School's tomorrow for me. Razz) Well, you did come to the right place for meeting like minds and such, just beware of some of the noobs that sometimes pop in here. Razz

Have a nice day and have a nice time on WP! Very Happy

And to answer your question if you have AS, I'm really not too sure. Razz I would have to know you more to get a better judgement. I did a post like this once and NO ONE answered my question. XD

if you are a trusting person when you are lied to you can get trust issues i got them but you can learn when people lie to you. theres nothing wrong with being abit different but dont let others tell you its bad, enjoy being unique.

[quote="Lula"] I'm also really clumsy. I fall down the stairs a lot. [quote="Lula"]

have you ever been tested for disbraxia i have it, it affects you hand eye co-ordination?

people have trouble paying attention to things but most can cope from experience ive found i cannot and i think it may be abit of an aspie trait aswell but it varies per person as everything does.

Jeez louise! lol. Anyone have any opinions and/or advice on this?[quote="Lula"]

life does get good, you will have chances to make good friends just make some effort to socialise abit on occasion at least. if you want to make new friends find people that share your interests and meet up, it makes social occasions easier and less awkward. for instance i go to gaming clubs for the strategy games i play and its much easier to talk to and make friends with people who share interest.

pm me if you want to talk or want advice.

if your a good person life will work out in the end.
