They are so many evil people in this world, at least evil towards me. All the false rumors, bullying, using, and rejecting they have done to me over the decades. I should have caught on. From them EXPLOITING me and my personal private stuff to stealing and out right home invasion with ATTEMPTED MURDER. They even TOOK ADVANTAGE of my ELDERLY GRANDPARENTS for thousands of dollars. I believed (didnt know better) these LOW LIFES we my friends. I hope God has a special place in hell for these people. There should also be a list like the Sex Offender Registry for these BULLIES and EXPLOITERS of the vulnerable.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4841851020927689161.post-32637015436037724002018-05-11T16:20:51.900+10:002018-05-11T16:20:51.900+10:00I’ve been bullied since the 5th grade for reasons ...I’ve been bullied since the 5th grade for reasons I didn’t understand. It went on through the 12th grade. I joined the ARMY soon after and I was shocked to realize it was happening there too. People would look at me like I was crazy and call me weird. No one ever really wanted anything to do with me. And everyone in my unit would talk to me like I was slow. It pisses me off that it’s still going on after all these years of dealing with it. I don’t really know what gives people the impression that I’m different, otherwise I would change the way I acted. But I can’t really tell what is that I’m doing to make me seem “off”.

I've had them all. When school was over, I thought I wouldn't be bullied anymore, but it only got worse on jobs and with people I'd encountered on and off the job. I learned self-defense, and strongly suggest it to every aspie out there, male and females. We aspies are often physically strong or/and hyper. We also like to do things perfectly and excel, and self-defense is no exception. <br /><br />I was worried about my poor motor skills and poor ability to understand instructions. There was also the problem of social anxiety, which is why I didn't learn self-defense as a child, although I've always wanted to. Also my mother was against it because she said girls aren't supposed to learn to fight. I learned a mix self defense of kickboxing and Thai boxing and a bit of Judo. It was fun. Loved it. Highly recommended. <br /><br />That or pepper spray. Sometimes NOTHING else works.

"he's the real victim because other women didn't want to have sex with him because he's an Aspie!"), geek culture, video gamer trash talk, not caring what other people think (caring that other people like you might think death threats are bad is a variety of caring what other people think).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4841851020927689161.post-80801406889229447812015-05-24T13:31:43.152+10:002015-05-24T13:31:43.152+10:00My daughter has aspergers.

She was taught to pretend she had no feelings and punished if she failed. Even her school teachers were bullies. Now that she survived to be an adult its the police who act as if they hate her. Its the reps at the Social Security office. Its people you would never believe could behave this way toward any human being let alone an abused and disabled person. They seem to be fond of calling her mentally ill and using that label to drag her out of her wheel chair onto the concrete and drag her to jail saying You've got to learn! The problem is that the only thing she ever learned from being bullied is how to hate the police. Never have they protected or served anyone but themselves and their sick perspective. They hate her so much and I worry about what they will do to her after I am gone.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4841851020927689161.post-20918774566719860102015-04-06T02:28:09.587+10:002015-04-06T02:28:09.587+10:00I have asperger's and I have been bullied in e...I have asperger's and I have been bullied in every way or form possible. I have been targeted by someone who was simply an acquaintance who I thought I was on good terms with. He was a felon with a heroin addiction and a drug warrant so I didn't associate with him much, but I later heard hat he had planned to come to my home, attack me by macing me, rob me, steal and sell my pets, and have his friend pick me up and body slam me. I have talked to people on craigslist that I have never met and woke up the next day with an email saying they wanted to kill me because I was ugly, fat, stinky, and dirty. This person had never met me, seen me, or been to my home. I have had supervisors at work target me by forcing me to stay after the store had closed and tried to make me move every box on every shelf out a quarter of an inch. This was a toy store so the whole store was boxes on shelves, in fact it was a lego store. I refused. The supervisor refused to open the office to let me get my things to go home, and I was forced to scale the office wall, remove the ceiling tile, and drop down in to the office to get my things and go home. It is very frustrating that somehow evil people can even detect my differences online and decide to hate me and treat me disrespectfully. Even saying they want to "kill me slowly." When I have done nothing to them. I am a smart woman. I have an IQ in the genius level range. I am petite, asian, and somewhat pretty. My weight vacillates between 100 and 145 due to an eating disorder I've had all my life. I am also an alcoholic. However none of this, and especially the aspergers, means I deceiver to be treated like I am less than anyone else. I am a wonderful person. I have moral values, I love animals, my family, and I cherish my good friends, although I have few. I don't like having asperger's but it is part of who I am and I have learned to accept it. Unfortunately it somehow seems to mean I am a magnet for bullies and evil people and I find that so frustrating. It's ok to be different. I am unique. Eccentric. There is absolutely nothing wrong with me. I am beautiful inside and out.<br />blu589@aol.comAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4841851020927689161.post-964033549227838932014-02-10T21:13:31.305+11:002014-02-10T21:13:31.305+11:00I really liked your quote at the end.

After many years I realized many of the communication problems I was having were due to people using indirect communication. When I pointed this out to my ex, she refused to accept that direct communication is the best for an honest and trusting relationship.<br />I think <a href="http://www.phototour.minneapolis.mn.us/relationships/communication" rel="nofollow">this page</a> explains the benefits of direct communication well.Ralph Doncasterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00037504544742962130noreply@blogger.com
