    What are you doing now?

    I'm packing because I have to go to Georgia for 2 weeks of training. I'm also attempting to pack my apartment because I just bought a house (I move in 3 days after I get home from training). So overall I'm just ridiculously stressed out.

    Do You Ever Forget To Reply Out Loud?

    I've gotten into arguments with my boyfriend before because I swear I have told him something or answered him and he says I didn't. I've also been told I write too fast (which attributes to my sloppy hand writing) and i'll think i've written everything out when in reality the sentence i've...

    A list of suitable and unsuitable jobs

    I'm an Officer in the federal government and I would say it's an unsuitable job but it has made me gain and use a lot of social skills. I don't like dealing with people but during the course of work I can manage it's just exhausting both mentally and physically and I usually crash once I get home.

    A list of suitable and unsuitable jobs

    I was a barista for about 6 months and it was literally one of the worst jobs I've had. Things can get chaotic really fast and it's very overwhelming.

    Do you think autistic adults can get jobs involving social skills?

    My job requires social skills. I have a lot of generic answers for pretty much every possible question I can be asked. Luckily, most of the time I work with inanimate objects and 2-3 co-workers whom I worked with for years. The times that I am forced to talk to people I don't know or do...

    I am currently an Officer with a federal agency and before that I worked for my local police department. I have always wanted to be in a profession that helps people, my parents say since I was 3. I am now finishing my BS in psychology. My friends and family like to joke that I can do no wrong...

    Do you like dominant partners?

    My boyfriend is way more dominant than me in many ways. He is outgoing, has tons of friends and his entire career is focused on his ability to make and maintain business connections. He has a very authoritative presence and I always turn to him in situations where I don't feel comfortable (which...

    Understanding when we've gone beyond friend dating

    I had the issue with knowing whether or not my current boyfriend and I were dating. The only reason I agreed to go to lunch with him in the first place was because he said he only wanted to be my friend and I had just moved across the country and didn't really know anyone. We began to have lunch...

    How do Aspies celebrate Valentine's Day?

    My boyfriend an I are in Atlantic city right now "celebrating" early since we both have to work on valentine's day. However, in the past I have done some things he had found odd like buying him flowers and candy. Overall, I'm not a big fan of valentine's day.
