I'm terrible at finding blokes. Really awful. I do have a couple of guy friends, and there is a guy I know who I currently quite like (my total inability to handle the situation means it's probably not going to go anywhere though); both of those friends have said that the guy I like is an idiot and ...

Be very very very careful when going for 'work experience' - if you're not on an accredited course it is technically illegal, and I've heard all sorts of horror stories. Upside - if you do it and aren't paid (and I'm not saying it's not always a good way to get your foot in the door), you can claim ...

My ability to remember quotes from TV shows and other assorted showbiz trivia is apparently unrivalled - so I'm told by my friends who tend to use it as an excuse to gang up on me in the pie round when we're playing Buzz! I was obsessed with Friends when I was younger, and can still remember what th...

What was the subject of your studies (if you are comfortable telling about them) Sure - it was performing arts and film. My career since then (which I've generally been happy with, office politics aside) has been in the admin side of that field - ironically it seems that admin people need to be the...

The 'how' -perhaps start with locating and contacting your nearest Autism & Aspergers Group; The 'whether I should pursue it" - what does your gut direct? My gut says I maybe don't need a formal diagnosis right now. But if I was to try and find a support group, I think the ones in my neck of th...

Thanks for the welcome everyone :) (Oh - I use smileys a lot because otherwise I seem to write stuff on message boards that people take as being argumentative, so I'm sorry if it's irritating but it's better than the alternative for me!) I suppose my big question is whether it's worth trying to purs...

I cannot go a day without listening to music for this very reason. I just will not leave the house without my ipod - it's my 'me' time and makes it so much easier for me to concentrate on getting from A to B. I'd almost rather travel somewhere by myself so I can listen to music on the way than havin...

Not really sure how to start this, so I'll just say 'hello everyone' and go from there... :) I've had a fairly rubbish year for reasons I'm increasingly thinking are related to AS, but I've always known something was wrong. In my teens, I was the 'drippy' girl who never got asked out because I was '...
