Part of why it's difficult for me to keep friends is that I keep forgetting to miss them. (Yikes, I didn't cop onto just how creepy-emo that last bit was until it was typed out. Oh well.) Creepy-emo I don't know, but so very recognizable (and quite well said if you ask me). If I had friends, I woul...

There's nothing wrong with failing because it means at least you tried! When I was your age I was way too shy to actually make a move when I wanted to - even when the odds looked positive - so I probably missed out on a lot of opportunities. I'll never know for sure, but I have regretted that attitu...

I have the ugly habit of seeing things way too negatively all the time, and of forgetting to be grateful for what I do have. I am grateful that I have a son, although I never really wanted children. In a way he is the best thing that ever happened to me. He has brought me into close contact with my ...

Welcome! I just joined in as well yesterday. I don't think it will change your life, as it will not change who you are or what your personality is. But it might bring you closer to a full understanding of who you are, and maybe allow you to be more at peace with yourself (if that is what you need/se...

Thanks for the welcomes everyone :) @ChangelingGirl: Indeed, I don't think a diagnosis would change very much for me. Not anymore at least. Maybe if I had been diagnosed at a young age I wouldn't have tried so hard (what's the english word for “krampachtig”?) to fit in and perhaps then I wouldn't ha...

I am definitely a loner in the sense that I like to be alone, but I do wish I was more social. I still feel bad about not having any friends even though I'm already in my forties and should probably know better by now. But it seems I simply do not have the skills to make friends and keep them. It wa...

Hi all, I'm 46 and a father of an almost seven year old son. About four years ago my son was diagnosed with Asperger's. I had never heard of it, but when I started reading about it was like reading the story of my life. It was an epiphany, like all the pieces of a puzzle that had been floating aroun...
