I know I've been super negative about my boyfriend. He's not a bad person, far from it. But I'm coming to the sad conclusion that he never will be able to accept me in the way I need. Toy soldier, so many things you said resonated with me. Especially the part about him needing to know I'm not going ...

My next pair had a slightly different prescription but ended up feeling about twice as heavy. The optician said they shouldn't feel muc...

I'm new here, but not a newly "born" (diagnosed) aspie. I thought I'd managed to purge all those people from my life who made me feel ashamed of being me. That is until I met my soon-to-be ex boyfriend! I've spent the past month trying to explain I have very real differences, both personality wise a...
