    Do you have a nemesis?

    There is this woman that I work with who has wronged me so frequently but insists on trying to be my friend. I don't get it and I don't like her at all!

    More prone to complain?

    I've been told I complain too much, but really I think I am just saying what I want to say. Especially at work, if we are over staffed I will say "why am I even here, there are too many people here" I think part of my discomfort at work is sensory overload too. My anxiety starts kicking in and...

    Relating to others

    I find it very difficult to relate to people but when I find something relateable I will focus on it 100% often pushing people away. It is really hard for me especially with people my own age or younger (I am 29). For instance a girl I am friends with on facebook (because she sells a product I...

    Obsessed with People (of the opposite sex)?

    I agree Kelly, it is never a sexual attraction but more of an interest in a person. i am in a good and happy relationship but I still find myself attaching to my manager at work because he is very understanding and i can talk to him about anything.

    From an IQ stand point I have taken it twice. Once i scored a 95 and the other time was 100. Meaning average. I would consider myself really smart in certain subjects though such as dogs, I am getting there with fish tanks and i know a significant amount about cars too. I never did well is...

    Do You Hold Grudges?

    I do tend to hold grudges. I never forget when someone has done something to hurt me, even if they think an apology is going to help I never trust them again.

    Do you have any siblings or are you an only child / How has this affected your ASD?

    Re: Do you have any siblings or are you an only child / How has this affected your AS I have an older sister who never understood me. I annoyed her so badly but I never meant to, I just wanted to fit in with her. Now that we are grown she has a pretty serious alcohol problem and I find her...

    Core Friends

    I don't really have any friends. There are people at my work that I will talk to when I am there but no one that I can call or just hang out with.

    Jealousy

    I am just wondering how many of you experience jealousy. This seems to be something I cannot experience which my boyfriend finds quite appealing, but I am not sure if this is just part of my aspergers or not. So do you get jealous? If so what makes your jealous? I am very curious about this...

    Obsessed with People (of the opposite sex)?

    I tend to get attached to people fairly easily if given the chance, especially if the are nurturing or understanding of me. Once I am attached to somebody I like to be around them and talk to them alot....which usually intern scares people away.

    Pets?

    Dogs have always been in interest/obsession with me. Studying their behavior learning about the breeds and the tempermant. I currently have a 10 month old pitbull named Dixie and a 8 year old Italian Greyhound named Trinity. They are the world to me and I will do anything for them.

    I'm not really close to anyone in my family. We will talk but not about anything serious.

    What triggers Meltdowns/shutdowns?

    What triggers a meltdown for me is anxiety + being over stimulated. If I am depressed I am far more sensitive to things and that will also trigger it. Usually my meltdowns consist of me panicking and trying to get away from the situation I am in, I will make noise and sometimes flap my hands...

    Looking in the eye...

    I do not look many people in the eyes. The only person I can really look in the eyes is my boyfriend but that is because looking people in the eyes makes me feel vulnerable, but he makes me feel safe and ok, therefore it is not a big issue with him unless I am trying to hide some emotion that I...
