| All the girls in my class keep saying how much they love and how incredibly hot Justin Bieber and One Direction are, and because the can't 'get' them, they are all interested in the boys (2 or 3) who look like them.

Fake it till you make it.... kinda of words to live by.
I have managed to fake it pretty well. I rarely find myself feeling genuine about my emotional state but, I know what I have to do in order to survive. |

I overcame the eye contact thing by wearing irlen contact lenses... When just wearing my regular glasses though, I cant maintain eye contact still.
I honestly thought irlen lenses were BS for years... but now I rely on them heavily. |

| I wouldn't say it's just an Aspie thing, I think depends on the woman. As for me when I'm around a hot guy I start acting more like an NT guy. I enjoy the thought of out right dominating a man I'm attracted to. I also like the way you use "tasty" to describe it. I like to tell guys they look yummy ... |

| I got contact lenses from the irlen institute and it took care of this issue for me. Eye contact is no problem now... I don't feel too much overwhelming emotion when looking people in the eye anymore. |
