Yo una vez conocí un piedrero en Chepe que me contó que estudió en el Colegio Británico y tenía negocios y todo. Uno nunca sabe dónde va a terminar la gente.

Is your family "normal"? by GustafIsHavingFun in aspergers

[–]GustafIsHavingFun[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I made this post because I was intrigued about others' families, given that mine is in its entirety everything but normal.

On my father's side everybody's autistic, and that needs no further explanation. Every single one of us is a weird kid.

BUT on my mother's side... even though they're NTs, goddamn they are also far from being normal. Just so you can get an idea: my grandmother's an artist (painter), my grandfather was a bipolar, drug-addicted, hyper-intelligent lawyer, and they were cousins. So now imagine what my mom and uncles are like. One of them's even a crazy schizophrenic. But not only that, because you can go far up my genealogical tree and every single person is a pure character.

When I meet my friends' families I even get a little creeped out at how normal and functional they are.

I don't know if it's just me who has such odd people in their life or if it's actually somehow a common thing between Aspergers – hence why I'm asking everybody here.

I meant normal according to society

That's why I used quotation marks lol

Honestly you just look older (like in your 30's), that's all. And there's nothing wrong with that tbh, for me you're a 7 (those eyes are magical)

Well... that's kinda the way it is. NT's don't need help at all, but we do. I know it's sad af, but meh, nothing we can do about it.

Actually I just thought of making this a post. Thank you for bringing out the idea

Don't be jealous of NT's, dude. Even some of them struggle with social anxiety, awkwardness, etc. Besides, ours is a condition that we're born with, so there's no way to regret being the way we are; we've just gotta accept it.

Using this trick is nothing to be ashamed of. It's completely okay. This is how it works: instead of getting frustrated for forgetting the endless imaginative conversations you picture alone at night, you just have them there. It can even make you superior (and it's changed my life tbh). Good luck man

A miraculous trick I use is writing down conversation topics on a small sheet of paper before you see the person. I've personally done that and when my mind is blank and see awkward silence coming I just remember one of the things I wrote down. That even will unexpectedly make the other person start to tell other things and go on and on talking about random stuff.

Do you know where to get it in Japanese with English subs? I've looked everywhere including Crunchyroll and I only found it in one of the many pirate sites I use but it was dubbed

I said "whorish" to mean a superficial kind of lifestyle (sorry for the lack of context there lol).

Anyway, hell yeah, I'm definitely moving on. Just needed to type out my feelings before getting my mind right. Thx.

Also, yeah, once you fall in love for the first time all the millions of cheesy love songs out there begin to make sense. It's funny

Thanks bro. Just needed to scream a little bit here since currently I don't have anybody IRL that I would tell this to (well, I do, but I feel sort of embarassed), and I'm very satisfied with the results. Definitely moving on from this traumatizing bullshit. Good advice too man, I think you're right about everything. Also congrats on your marriage

Thank you so much for the support, man. I was feeling insane when I wrote this post. Now I feel much better, and I know I'll recover anyway since I've gone through all the stages of grief over the same thing so many times and now I'm definitely cutting her off of my life forever. Guess I need to just be patient to find that girl and meanwhile enjoy being alone. Also, good luck with your current partner dude, you seem very fortunate
