Hello everybody! I am Julia!

Hello,
I am glad to have found you guys in this community!
My name is Julia, 43, and single (well divorced) mother of 4 small kids.
I was born in Barcelona, Spain - very beautiful place- but I am American, too, and I live in the Miami area that believe do not care about Autistic population and they treat us as garbage. They think we are seconds and put us somebody to speak and decide for us and to substitute and sign for us which I do not like.
I see it because I compare it with other areas, places, regions and countries.
As many of you, I am Asperger and with a lot of issues that make me that I do not fit anywhere (well in fact they don't fit me properly).
Personally, I am a very nice and romantic person if I will comfortable with the person I am, if not I try but I cannot and I may leave somewhere else to avoid issues.
I do not like sharing anything (I am sure that as many of you) because If I do that I end being stolen something. I do not like being in the middle of anything and believe people like to put me in fact in the middle but as always, I have to move me (and my family somewhere else) which I am fed up.
I like speaking about interesting issues (not superficialities), watching TV, travelling, eating food from different countries. I love swimming and the beach. I enjoy music a lot and investigating. What is it investigating? Well I have currently a Bachelor in Business Administration but I am currently working on an Associates in Arts again which allows me to conduct my investigations. My main theme has always been the Economy and interrelations between countries.
I speak several languages (5 or 6), I have travelled around the world but, can you believe, I am a housewife! Amazing! Before I did care a lot, because I worked in the office, but now I do not care! God gave me this life with my kids and I take it and appreciate!
One of my kids is Autistic and I am pretty sure at least one more (or may be all the other three??) are Asperger.
I love my family and we are all close together with other arguments , good and bad times.
I would like to meet a partner Asperger as me or somebody that feels comfortable with Autism around and treat me like a ONE!
I like speaking and discussing also about the space, reincarnation and the other world. I love planes and trains. In fact, when I was a child I wanted to be a flight attendant!
I am very religious, although unfortunately being divorced.
If there is another misunderstood as me feel free to write me ! I do not have a lot of friends as before, and my extended family separated me , but I do not blame them! We are free humans to choose!

Always positive, searching for stability, love and happiness!
Best wishes for us and thank you,
Julia
 
Hi Julia.

I love Barcelona, it's one of my favourite cities, and I used to go with my wife. We move to Queensland Australia from the UK 9 years ago, so too far now.

I have 3 young kids, one like me and ASD and ADHD ( not diagnosed, but we know for sure), one probably just asd, but he's only 2. Little signs like he throws a hissy fit if things are not just right.

I also have similar interests, physics, spirituality, nature of reality and death, business strategy and marketing ( I run a mini marketing agency).

I find it very helpful to know, finally, that there are people like me around.

Hi Julia, we have several things in common: I’m an aspie, separated, 44, two kids (both aspies), I also know several languages, have traveled and lived in different countries. I even lived in Miami for a while . Welcome to AspiesCentral.
We probably share our mother tongue too. Catalán o español?

Hey @Sabrina are you from Barcelona too? I was brought up there, we lived in Clot. My fathers side of the family moved there in the 50s they were originally from Córdoba, so I’m half Andaluz.

I’m not from Barcelona, my country of origin is many more kilometers to the South . Do you still speak Spanish or Catalan?

Castellano was my first language I didn’t learn English until I went to school. My first word was chorizo, and I didn’t say anything else for quite some time I’m told! I would also only wear green clothing and go into total meltdown if they tried to dress me in anything else, so everyone called me pepino pequeño or pepiñito. These days I can scrape by in Spanish just about but I’m not fluent anymore. It would all come back if I spent some time there like I did in my 20s when I lived in Barcelona and Madrid for a while.
