Sorry aboot that!

:thumbsup::hug:

That's actually part of the concern. I'm not sure I want it "cemented" in my records. Also, I'm not sure that I'd seek any treatment for it, even if it were "officially" diagnosed. If I truly have Asperber's, I'm pretty functional for it. I have my quirks, but I seem to be able to manage them...

I have suspected I may have Asperger's. I took a few online tests and they supported the possibility, but that's obviously not a professional diagnosis. I don't know how having a professional opinion would really change anything for me, though.

So you find that caffeine helps w/ ADD/ADHD as well? I opted to not take ritalin and use coffee instead, as I seemed to be able to manage it well enough.

to short to handle the plethora of options presented to me, lol. I say that not as a jab, but as truth about how short my attention span is.

I think that's a very interesting observation about yourself, and one we can all probably relate to. Knowing that I happen to be an odd duck in a way, also surely contributes to my overall accepting demeanor. I don't want people to judge me for my quick, therefore I choose to be understanding of...

Whoa, that's crazy screwed up.

Love him! /me jelly. I want some in the future.

The bigger question to that I keep coming back to is "why?". I'm probably the only person here to ever ask that one, right? (sarcasm). I still wrestle w/ that question though. It seems completely illogical and strange. This is nothing new to me either, since I was a child, as young as probably 4...

It certainly adds an extra layer of complexity, knowing that I'd likely not see any acceptance. My SO is quite a bit more "closed minded" around certain things than I am. I tend to be fairly "live and let live. Don't mess w/ me, I won't mess w/ you" while SO is often far more opinionated about...

I'm slowly settling in here a bit. I know it seems kinda odd to make what amounts to basically 2 intro threads, but I was a bit lack on details in my original. I think I mentioned it before, but I'm not particularly new to this. I don't really know "Why" I am this way. I can't think of a...
