Aspberger's syndrome...
| Sun, 04-15-2007 - 4:33pm |
Hmmm... I am the one who wrote about a bad fix up... and I think I want to hear if other people know about this form of autism, which is commonly known as a social disorder... aspberger's syndrome? Can anyone out there tell me more about it? What are some of the cues and how often do people who have this lead normal lives (get married, have children, hold down employment?) Just curious, as I believe the man I was fixed up with had it.

I was 20 and turned 21 in the time I dated him.
>...he dumped me again by taping a note to my car. A note written on a scrap paper he found in the parking lot.<
LOL!! OMG...
I'm sorry, I'm not laughing *at* you...
That did make me giggle though. Man - now THAT is a guy with social problems. There's getting dumped via the phone, or via voice mail or text messages even - but getting a scrap piece of paper taped to your window... geeze - *THAT*s a guy with problems!
If I were your parents I'd have done the same thing. :)

Have any of you ladies come across "The Curious Incident of the Dog At Night Time" by Mark Hadden:

It is written in first person by an hypothetical little boy with Asperger's syndrome. It is an easy and fun way to learn more about the syndrome.

OMG yeah I did! I didn't realize that the first person "writer" had Asperger's - I didn't finish it though. Actually I was at the bookstore and saw it. Read about a third of it just standing there in the isle. I remember I kept thinking "What is WRONG with this person?"
LOL - well that explains that then! I'll have to finish that book someday when I've not got my nose stuck in a textbook!
