Aurore
Looking for the TARDIS!
Hello there!
I was looking for a friendly website about Asperger's and I found this place!
About me: my name is Aurore and I'm a 33-year-old girl from France. I was diagnosed with Asperger's 3 years ago. I used to be the "weird lonely girl" at school, at work, everywhere. Till this diagnosis, nobody took that very seriously. They said I was too shy or that I had agoraphobia, or they thought I was acting strangely on purpose... And even now, some people (including my mother) refuses to admit that I've Asperger's, because I seem quite "normal". I've a job, I bought an apartment 5 years ago, I've a dog, I live alone...but the real problem concerns my private life. I've no friends, I've never had a romantic relationship, I'm asexual and after my work day I just want staying at home with my dog! Because of my Asperger's, I also have anxiety disorder. It's very difficult for me to endure the crowd, the noises, the sunlight, and I'm very tired when I have to interact with people.
Last year I tried to take an interest in the "romantic matter", I had a contact with two interesting men. But the first was too "sociable" for me (always visiting his friends, doing sports competitions...) and I put a stop to the exchange. The second is asexual like me, he knows about my Asperger's and he's very understanding, but I have difficulty in driving myself to a meeting (and he lives about 500 km from my home!)... To be honest, I think my own motivations are a little weird, my approach is very "artificial" so I'm very doubtful about the all thing!
About my hobbies: I love reading (I'm a bookworm!), writing stories and letters, watching TV, playing videogames and hidden object games, cooking, hiking...and I've an obsession for English language. It's a bit strange, I guess, because I was very bad in English when I was a student! I'm a self-taught person and I know I continue making some mistakes (sorry about that) but I'm still learning!
