**B3AU** · 08-12-2011, 04:53 AM

**i_will** · 08-12-2011, 04:54 AM

WTF is Aserpger's syndrome?

I'm not googling it, that's too much work.

**Enlightenment** · 08-12-2011, 04:54 AM

she's probably more interesting than 99% of other girls out there because of it

also there are various degrees of aspergers

my cousin apparently has it but you would never know

he's a confident young guy, not socially inept at all, infact he's pretty much always the life of the party

**Grug** · 08-12-2011, 04:54 AM

Has her behaviour always been socially awkward?

**smokey_b_rare** · 08-12-2011, 04:55 AM

What characteristics is she showing? What does she do?

in short, it means the person is socially awkward AS PHUCK!!! AS PHUCK!!!!AS PHUCK!!!!

**Metalhead44** · 08-12-2011, 04:55 AM

OP how didn't you pick it up sooner?
Assuming this is a serious thread and your not a red trolling.

**Beeewbs** · 08-12-2011, 04:56 AM

Good luck.

**lucious** · 08-12-2011, 04:56 AM

Dumping her because she has asperges would make you a total scumbag. Not whiteknighting here but it only makes people somewhat different in social situations, and very often they are highly intelligent. Sometimes I think I might prefer a girl like this rather than some beauty therapist who goes out to clubs all the time, and cant hold a conversation about anything other than mtv, parties, nightclubs, and boyfriends.

**titansmlb102** · 08-12-2011, 04:56 AM

For those unaware:

Asperger syndrome or Asperger's syndrome or Asperger disorder is an autism spectrum disorder that is characterized by significant difficulties in social interaction, along with restricted and repetitive patterns of behavior and interests. It differs from other autism spectrum disorders by its relative preservation of linguistic and cognitive development. Although not required for diagnosis, physical clumsiness and atypical use of language are frequently reported.

So high functioning autism. Think of just really bad social awkwardness. A lot of Aspergers sufferers are actually pretty smart in certain areas.

Me and my roommates (we're all miscers) this upcoming year got a random roommate assigned to us and we think he may have this.

self-diagnosed?

So wait, until she told you, you didnt have any idea? If so then its a bit douchey to dump her just because she has a syndrome. If her bahaviour was making you not want to be with her then go ahead but otherwise...

i didn't know the specifics of asperger's / autism, until she told me, then i literally spent 8 straight hours reading stuff up, eg, ppl's experiences being with someone asperger's. My heart felt kind of torn when it realise that asperger's is a form of autism... and i guess it explains why she's generally emotionally distant

**VW_R32** · 08-12-2011, 04:58 AM

I bet she is a hipster... Every fuking hipster has self diagnosed aspergers "I think I can't socialize and I think I have a higher intellect... yep aspergers.".... inb4 rape story OP

**roronoa3000** · 08-12-2011, 05:01 AM

Wish my gf had assburgers syndrome.

not to be a dick, but people in society would be lying if they don't see you differently when you're with someone with a mental condition

If you liked her before you found out, this shouldn't change your view of her. *Most people with aspergers are pretty normal from the ones I've met, they just struggle with certain social nuances as well as things like sarcasm and body language. *In any case, there are some whose condition is incredibly mild and barely noticeable. *

yea that's the dilemma, now i can't help but feel self-conscious of the fact that im dating someone with autism, but if i dump her then that will make me look like a total douche

**CommonPheasant** · 08-12-2011, 05:04 AM

Meh, keep in mind the "popular" thing to do among medical professionals is to diagnose everybody who comes through their door with the fad disorder of the day, which happens to be "autism spectrum" stuff nowadays. 20 years ago ADD was all the rage (before it became ADHD).

Most people who hang out on internet forums probably have some symptoms similar to Asperger's, such as social awkwardness and perhaps intense interest in certain subjects, but that doesn't mean they all have phychological disorders.

**CoolStoryBrotha** · 08-12-2011, 05:04 AM

OP, you are one cheeky kunt mate I swear. You've been going out with this girl so you knew what her personality was like and I assume you like her personality to some degree if you'vecommittedto beingboyfriendand girlfriend. Now you find out there's a name for her type of personality (I know it's a disorder but all this new information has done is designate a name to the way she is) and you want to dump her?

Grow up

You've no age displayed but I have a feeling this should be in the teen misc, adults aren't this superficial are they?

**002** · 08-12-2011, 05:06 AM

Sounds like a positive thing for a female. I'd rather have a girl with Asperger's than a vapid, vacuous, gossiping, club slut.

mate its a neurological disorder, something to do with biology, can't be fixed with medication, its who you are just, and its genetic, i don't know, im definitely not an expert, as i've only had less than a week of knowledge about this issue. But i don't think i can spend time with someone in long term wise, knowing that they have this condition (srs). and adults and teens can be both equally shallow

the grass is always greener on the other side of the fence

**hvf26** · 08-12-2011, 05:10 AM

OP you're beta as phuck if you dump her solely on the reason that her having aspergers has changed your perception of her. pretty ironic that an illness that causes someone to be socially awkward still let you guys have a relationship

**Jayl12345** · 08-12-2011, 05:11 AM

I just dropped an ass burger before reading this thread. Coincidence?

**InglewoodJack** · 08-12-2011, 05:14 AM

By the sounds of it, it seems like you've already made up you're mind. Are you hoping one of us is going to talk you out of it?

It doesn't seem to be working, especially with that attitude.

A bit ****ed up. It's just a label. She hasn't changed, you have

**pandaraper** · 08-12-2011, 05:15 AM

i was diagnosed with that a couple years ago. my shoulder is injured so i cant train and reading this thread is making me even more depressed...
