Ok, what I feel is the central problem now is this: I have to somehow be able to analyze where one kind of reaction (norman newbie reaction) ends and where the other kind starts (aspergers). But it's hard, because they can look alike. They certainly do from the outside, but sometimes they also...

Thank you all for your wise words. I feel I need to think about them a bit before answering anything. But yes, I'm aware of having all the normal reactions as well (exept for the one where I'd be ok with everything. This one seems normal among the people I hang out with.) And I've also had my...

Can you elaborate or give an example. I feel like I don't understand what you mean (might be a language problem). Also did you notice my earlier reply to you? It appeared at some point in the middle of the thread. But yes, it's often hard to communicate because it seems that the way I...

Tomorrow I'm hosting a small party for som poly people and Salamander and Sunflower will both be there. I hope that to see them in a neutral situation like this will help me get used to the idea of them being together. I've tried imagining different kinds of situations and to feel ok about them...

London, nice to hear that I'm not alone, but sorry to hear things have been hard for you. Ok, so if I accept that I need to take things slowly (and other people accept this too), then what does this actually mean? One thing about being an aspie is that things don't generalize that easily. So...

Generally I think we communicate well. There is nothing we can't talk about and even when the subject is difficult we remain calm and listen and try to understand where the other one is coming from. With this insident though… not so much. He has a tendency to say things in a way that makes them...

Wow, it seems that both of you totally ignored my description of the situation and my question and autopiloted an answer to something else. I'm dissapointed. I hope to see replys that address my original question even in some way. Also any other comments on how hawing aspergers syndrome has...

Hi, I'm new to this forum and poly too. I've been reading a lot of threads here trying to find things applicable to my situation (and there's been a lot of helpful messages). One issue I still have is it looks like I have aspergers syndrome (where I live, you can still be diagnosed with it). I'm...
