    things you find funny that NT's don't?

    Aspie Boyfriend

    I agree that trust and logic are key factors during a conflict with an Aspie. I've noticed this.

    Honestly ready to give up

    As one who is part of the "older generation" and who has had a multitude of relationships, I can tell you that when it comes to love and attraction there is often no obvious rhyme or reason. I have seen the most unlikely people fall for each other. Looking back over my own life, I can say that...
