I have autism and asperger's syndrome just like the rest of you lot

I am going to be 35 next month, but I was diagnosed when I was 19. They caught it late.

I am single and I'm loving it. Who wants the hardships of marriage anyway?

Some people have speculated I am borderline. I’ve never been tested. There’s no benefit at this point but it maybe could’ve been beneficial during schooling years. Maybe. It also could’ve created more issues.

Some people on CF think Autism is a sin. Don’t believe it. (tho making excuses for yourself would be)

Welcome.

I am 30 & have always wanted to date & get married. I don’t like being single.

Oh, I am sorry to read that. I hope you can find a spouse soon.

No, autism is not a sin. It's a brain disorder. Whoever says its a sin, I would be like: "Well, the person who has autism didn't ask to be born with it, they were just born that way and it is wrong to judge them. They can't help it that they have autism."

Is what I would say anyway. People like me who have autism didn't ask to be born that way, we just were. If I could take away my autism I would; but as of now there is no know cure for it.

Doctors don't know how to cure autism right now and it may be many more years until they do.

I would add it's more a personality than anything. Would you agree w/ that?

I agree, I was diagnosed around the age of 7 (now 26). The single life is wonderful.

I wasn't diagnosed until my 30s. I love being married.
