    The Underemployment and Unemployment Thread

    Let me start by saying I'm not an educated man. I didn't finish high school. This limits my employment options. I owned my own business for ten years and I loved it. When my profits started falling I didn't know what to do. So, I just kept working and hoped things would get better. They...

    Unlikely Obsessions

    I have had a few obsessions that when I mentioned them to others they looked at me strangely. But, most of them have become sort of mainstream now. Tattooing for example. I became interested in it in the late 70s and now it's everywhere. I think all my obsessions have been a bit unusual...

    Boundaries between different relationships

    I tried taking your survey, but I found the few answer choices inadequate to express my feeling on the questions. Also there's not enough space in the "other" option to explain why it was chosen. Also certain parts are unclear. What is meant by "family member?" A sibling or a spouse? Is it...

    How do People Recognise Flirting?

    I had trouble flirting for most of my life. But, once I decided I was going to get my social life handled, I learned it relatively quickly. I suppose I obsessed about it for a few years and I did take a very good (but expensive) class. So, it CAN be learned and you can become good at it.

    Men & Women Please Answer...

    I am a man. I have had trouble keeping relationships going, but I don't think that's different than most people. Afterall, half of all marriages end in divorce today. I've also had been with enough women to notice my relationships have all followed a similar pattern. These days I don't...

    Body Language

    What I've learned about body language is that it's just too hard to keep up with. "She crossing her legs at the ankle, what does that mean?" You simply cannot carry on a conversation and think about body language. But, I have discovered a couple of short cuts. Firstly, you can think of every...

    Introducing myself.

    Thanks for the warm welcome.

    Introducing myself.

    Firstly I think I should say I haven't been diagnosed with Aspergers Syndrome. However, I have two sons that have and I've taken several online tests that all agree I probably am. So, I think it's pretty likely I'm an aspie. I've been doing some research and I've found a lot of information...
