    I think most people are secretly bisexual

    Sorry, I didn't see this until now. Thank you for the suggestion. I've been fascinated by the Femdom thing for a long time actually. I think it's beautiful, romantic even sometimes. In life I definitely target women I percieve as dominant. And then in relationships I try to encourage any such...

    Well I don't know if it meets all the official requirements for status as "funny," but I sure liked it.(you don't know me I just noticed this at the bottom of my page)

    The Figure of Speech That You Dislike The Most

    I did not know that! All this time I thought it was Americans just being pretentious and jumping on the latest terminology bandwagon, but apparently somewhere along the line I've been compromised by redneck ignorance. God...it's been a minor campaign of mine to discourage using the word in...

    I think most people are secretly bisexual

    Whoa hold on there dude. I didn't say "all gay men engage in shameful & humiliating sex" - I said that the pleasure I got was from the humiliation I felt. I don't know what prompted such a vitriolic response from you, and I think pretty much everything you said is based on erroneous...

    I think most people are secretly bisexual

    I'm posting this because I haven't seen anything like what I'm about to say here or anywhere else for that matter. I am and always have been straight. I say this even though I've been with men. And not just one, or two, but...well let's just say I my memory is not the greatest. For years I...

    Irony and sarcasm

    I think I understand it. I often shoot for it when talking to people but then forget to smile or whatever to cue that it's a joke, and this can cause issues. Even if I remember to though, I feel like whatever was humorous is diminished if I actually have to add a facial punctuation mark: "Get...

    SELF-MEDICATION

    I had superficially grazed over the NA alternative sites like this before. But since you were kind enough to go to the trouble of posting the link I looked into it again a little more deeply. It's interesting & I downloaded a couple of PDFs they offer, but I found myself running into what...

    SELF-MEDICATION

    @Jerome said "I want to know if I can share your story." Sure J. go for it. The mere idea that something I've said in an overshare like this might actually be useful to someone is kind of an unexpected honor because even though I'm usually aiming for positivity I can never really be sure what...

    SELF-MEDICATION

    That is an interesting story, one that would have me thinking fate were at work here if I believed in such things. Because if I were anyone other than myself, if I'd lived any other life than this, I would find it extremely difficult to reconcile my concept of someone that has HFA with any...

    Movies about people on the spectrum

    Please Stand By (2017)
  11. jacinto

    Are people on the spectrum capable of lying or manipulating?

    I for one rarely lie. I'd rather tell the truth even when it's extremely difficult or downright unwise/counterproductive. I've read that a lot of Aspies are like this

    The Figure of Speech That You Dislike The Most

    I hate the word "whilst" ....nothing wrong with the same "while" we've always used. And I hate when people say, e.g., "I could care less!" instead of what it should be, which is " I couldn't care less."

    I have no idea how to be a girlfriend

    Cards work! My first real GFstarted out by inviting me over & then she pulled out a deck of cards & taught me Gin (which I'd never played before or since). It was an easy way to get comfortable with each other - we dated for 2 years. Also: "John likes constant validation, and likes talking to...

    Are you "paranoid"

    I know I'm paranoid, but that doesn't necessarily make me wrong.

    SELF-MEDICATION

    I knew that's exactly what I had gone & done AGAIN with this & that's why I disappeared for 2 weeks. I was embarrassed. Aren't I just the social butterfly, blithely offering up personal introspection and thought-provoking subjects to "get a dialogue going" ....jeez. Sometimes I really wish I was...
