Very nice Matty! Awesome! And you will find your bride! NOW you reminded me of me in my first 40 years of my life as a bachelor till I got married at age of 41. So, I know, Matty, we are in the same boat or I could say I was in the same boat as you are now.

I have a great autobiography manuscript I am going to publish and you shall have an autographed printed copy so YOU can understand where I come from! You really are like me before I married. I can't stop saying that. You are cool, man! Maybe I will find someone for ya. Never know!

Thanks everyone! I highly appreciated it!

Big example of what just happened on other night. This middle age women met me and play pool table, then after the game she realised that I have aspergers without me telling her. She knew what kind of communication going through. Aspergers can be easily revealing by reading the parts of differed.t form of communication. I wish girls around my age have this similar manner. Instead they just insult and leave me a virgin and single for most of the time.

Hi Matt: irony! An ad for Aspergers School-"students aged 11-22." Follows your comment #13.
Focused on Social skills. Rigourous Curriculum. Chamberlainschool.org/Aspergers.
Ever heard of it?

I listed their website:chamberlainschool.org/Aspergers.
The question was- are you familiar this site as it might have "some interest " to you?

No, I never heard of it. I wouldn't go for it at least it seems not legitimate at all. I prefer counselling by one on one because its easier to manage.

Like you I haven't "checked out" the site in question-if "legitimate". No reason for me to do so.
Presumably the "goal of counselling" is "how to deal with what one considers a problem"?

I prefer do it for myself.

I can't make things easier for women to understand. I had lot of problems before and after consulting them about lip reading. They always think of me seeing at their lip referring to kissing as wrong way. This is really bad.

No comment on your goal of "counselling over a 7 year time frame". Your comment on how long you have been so "interacting".

Does seem to replicate" psychoanalysis" which has no "apparent goal" either.

Whether it is "reasonable" to expect girls/women to have completed courses in "understanding aspergers/autistic syndrome" in dating-interesting speculation.

Aside: perhaps "understanding DEAFness" might be more "relevant". The world in computers- Reality?

Look, he make himself confused by making those questions up. I didn't ask for it at all. I was just thanking everyone in.this thread for praising.

Looks like the videos and interview has not improve the society for me. It has been getting worse in past week lately. Women still hates me. People Cant make friends with me because I have no social status and poor skills. Well I guess I have to end myself because my life isnt working. So ****ing stupid world making me so hard to live!

I wish I didnt say that. I can't get out of this curse. I thought making those videos and interviews with the media suppose to change the way of my life. Hence changing the people attitude against me. Well there isn't anything working at the moment. I still same old crap as before.

Damn right you don't say that. Did you see the article someone posted in Current Events about people who tried to end it all by jumping off the Golden Gate Bridge? One guy who survived said in that moment when he jumped, he suddenly realized he had no problems he couldn't fix, except for the fact he'd just jumped off the bridge. Lucky him, he survived and was able to fix his life.

You have your big world trip to look forward to, and your whole life after that. You can do it.

It's only been one week. It takes time for changes to happen. You are still young. Hang in there!

Some of my youtube videos are hitting up already. I hope that stays that way.

What options would be ideal way to show my uni and counsellor at uni of my interview? It would be useful for the students at the campus?

Presumably most persons in your university might have heard of your ABC/You Tube discussions. I believe you mentioned you will be graduating "soon" thus not much time to reflect on what you articulated.
Much success there.
Cheers
