What’s wrong with me? </p> <p>First boyfriend: Had Asperger’s and had never had a friend before. I asked him out because I wanted to show him what it was like to be loved and cared for. I quit him in part because I was getting depressed and being 16 years old, I thought all depressed people were bad in relationships. In retrospect, I probably didn’t like him to begin with, but I did care for him a lot.</p> <p>Second boyfriend: Asked me out and I felt I had to say yes, otherwise I’d never see him again. This guy weighed 300 pounds and I was never really attracted to him. What really ruined it was he thought he was brilliant when most of the people I knew were much smarter than he was. So of course I broke up with him.</p> <p>Third boyfriend: I asked him out (he was really cute, fun to be around, and had an international gold medal in math). Then he said he was “bad at relationships” and dumped me. To be fair, that was true - we dated for a month and he’d never even held my hand. But I think he was thinking about something else.</p> <p>Fourth boyfriend: I met him and we spent a few days having really long personal conversations. I asked him out because he seemed really stable and good for the long haul (his last relationship had lasted five years). Then we didn’t talk for three weeks and when we saw each other we decided we had no actual common interests. So the breakup was mutual.<br/> Fifth boyfriend: I asked him out and then broke up with him because I was worried someone better would come along. Also, I was going into the psych ward and wouldn’t get to see him for at least the length of our relationship.</p> <p>Sixth boyfriend: On our second meeting I invited him to my place and we had oral sex. Although I wanted to pretend it never happened, he persisted in touching me, so I figured we might as well call it a relationship. I broke up with him two weeks later because our relationship was too physical and he was no fun to be around.</p> <p>Seventh boyfriend: I really, really liked this guy. We were remarkably similar and could understand each other really well. So eventually I asked him out, only to find he had anger problems (he fought with my mother the first week we were dating). I’m going to break up with him tomorrow.</p> <p>What’s wrong with me? Why can’t I, for the life of me, sustain a long-term, meaningful relationship?<br/> Oh yeah, and if it’s relevant, I asked out all of these guys (except the first) within a week of meeting them. And four of them had Asperger’s.<br/> Thanks guys</p>”<br/><br/> - <em>Internet Female</em>http://blog.65daysofsteve.com/post/2375071886http://blog.65daysofsteve.com/post/2375071886Sun, 19 Dec 2010 17:00:54 +0000<img src="http://28.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_ldl4x2F4UQ1qzhuszo1_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://29.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_ldl4x2F4UQ1qzhuszo3_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://28.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_ldl4x2F4UQ1qzhuszo4_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://29.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_ldl4x2F4UQ1qzhuszo5_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/>http://blog.65daysofsteve.com/post/2350176198http://blog.65daysofsteve.com/post/2350176198Fri, 17 Dec 2010 18:34:14 +0000<iframe width="400" height="300" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/EcbgpiKyUbs?wmode=transparent&autohide=1&egm=0&hd=1&iv_load_policy=3&modestbranding=1&rel=0&showinfo=0&showsearch=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe><br/><br/><p>Continuous Chest Compression CPR</p>http://blog.65daysofsteve.com/post/1168946658http://blog.65daysofsteve.com/post/1168946658Wed, 22 Sep 2010 22:26:54 +0100<iframe width="400" height="300" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/MVxEwOzT92Y?wmode=transparent&autohide=1&egm=0&hd=1&iv_load_policy=3&modestbranding=1&rel=0&showinfo=0&showsearch=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe><br/><br/>http://blog.65daysofsteve.com/post/1045944235http://blog.65daysofsteve.com/post/1045944235Wed, 01 Sep 2010 04:58:28 +0100<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_l7xpw7U9Ns1qzhuszo1_500.png"/><br/><br/>http://blog.65daysofsteve.com/post/1033252790http://blog.65daysofsteve.com/post/1033252790Sun, 29 Aug 2010 23:16:55 +0100<img src="http://30.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_l72q51OWcj1qzlnzzo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>(via <a href="http://sagittalslice.tumblr.com/" class="tumblr_blog">sagittalslice</a>)</p>http://blog.65daysofsteve.com/post/1033243334http://blog.65daysofsteve.com/post/1033243334Sun, 29 Aug 2010 23:14:54 +0100<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_l70hpuiUpD1qzhuszo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://blog.65daysofsteve.com/post/939312741http://blog.65daysofsteve.com/post/939312741Thu, 12 Aug 2010 00:39:33 +0100<p>racer</p>http://blog.65daysofsteve.com/post/936861813http://blog.65daysofsteve.com/post/936861813Wed, 11 Aug 2010 13:16:31 +0100<p>1 x 3.5mm Jack-to-Phono Cable 1 x S-Video Cable 1 x Scart-to-S-Video / Composite Cable</p>http://blog.65daysofsteve.com/post/936880500http://blog.65daysofsteve.com/post/936880500Wed, 11 Aug 2010 13:16:31 +0100<iframe width="400" height="300" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/kDKiQfBs9lo?wmode=transparent&autohide=1&egm=0&hd=1&iv_load_policy=3&modestbranding=1&rel=0&showinfo=0&showsearch=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe><br/><br/>http://blog.65daysofsteve.com/post/926612713http://blog.65daysofsteve.com/post/926612713Mon, 09 Aug 2010 11:51:28 +0100<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_l6ml5jOCEF1qzhuszo1_400.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>The Shack</p>http://blog.65daysofsteve.com/post/902584220http://blog.65daysofsteve.com/post/902584220Wed, 04 Aug 2010 11:40:03 +0100<img src="http://28.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_l6l5j9SV3w1qzhuszo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><h1><center><b>30 days until I start work!</b></center></h1></p>http://blog.65daysofsteve.com/post/898652510http://blog.65daysofsteve.com/post/898652510Tue, 03 Aug 2010 17:52:00 +0100<p>We have now reached the point where every goon with a grievance, every bitter bigot, merely has to place the prefix, ‘I know this is not politically correct, but…’ in front of the usual string of insults in order to be not just safe from criticism, but actually a card, a lad, even a hero. Conversely, to talk about poverty and inequality, to draw attention to the reality that discrimination and injustice are still facts of life, is to commit the sin of political correctness. Anti-PC has become the latest cover for creeps. It is a godsend for every curmudgeon and crank, from fascists to the merely smug.</p>http://blog.65daysofsteve.com/post/898642536http://blog.65daysofsteve.com/post/898642536Tue, 03 Aug 2010 17:49:27 +0100<a href="http://www.mindhacks.com/blog/2010/07/through_a_monitor_da.html">Through a monitor darkly »</a>: <p>Second Life: Meth House</p>http://blog.65daysofsteve.com/post/870717473http://blog.65daysofsteve.com/post/870717473Wed, 28 Jul 2010 14:26:31 +0100http://blog.65daysofsteve.com/post/840457387http://blog.65daysofsteve.com/post/840457387Wed, 21 Jul 2010 12:38:52 +0100<iframe width="400" height="299" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/TugslL45aXk?wmode=transparent&autohide=1&egm=0&hd=1&iv_load_policy=3&modestbranding=1&rel=0&showinfo=0&showsearch=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe><br/><br/>http://blog.65daysofsteve.com/post/819544012http://blog.65daysofsteve.com/post/819544012Fri, 16 Jul 2010 15:20:51 +0100<img src="http://29.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_l5lk1w4uMC1qzhuszo1_400.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>It’s all cricket today!</p>http://blog.65daysofsteve.com/post/814876754http://blog.65daysofsteve.com/post/814876754Thu, 15 Jul 2010 11:21:02 +0100<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_l5cmslIaLo1qzhuszo1_400.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Summer fun @ Rich’s gaff!</p>http://blog.65daysofsteve.com/post/794083368http://blog.65daysofsteve.com/post/794083368Sat, 10 Jul 2010 16:53:09 +0100“<p>If homelessness were genetic,<br/> Institutes would be constructed<br/> With tall white walls,<br/> And ‘driven’ people (with thick glasses)<br/> Would congregate<br/> In libraries</p> <p>And mumble.</p> <p>If homelessness were genetic<br/> Bright young things<br/> Would draft manifestos<br/> ‘To crack the problem’,</p> <p>Girls with braces on their teeth<br/> Would stoop to kiss<br/> Boys with dandruff<br/> At Unit discos</p> <p>While dancing (slowly)<br/> To ‘Careless Whisper’.</p> <p>Meanwhile, upstairs, in the offices<br/> Secretaries in long white coats<br/> And horn-rimmed spectacles,<br/> Carrying clipboards,<br/> Would cross their legs<br/> And take dictation:</p> <p> ‘Miss Brown, a memo please,<br/> To the eminent Professor Levchenko,<br/> “Many thanks indeed<br/> For all those sachets you sent to me,<br/> Of homeless toddlers’ teeth.”’</p> <p>If homelessness were genetic<br/> Rats from broken homes<br/> Would sleep in cardboard shoeboxes<br/> Evading violent fathers,<br/> Who broke their bones,<br/> While small white mice<br/> With cocaine habits<br/> Would huddle in fear,<br/> Sleeping in doorways,<br/> Receiving calibrated kicks from gangs of passers-by</p> <p>(A ‘geneenvironment interaction’).</p> <p>If homelessness were genetic<br/> Then the limping man, with swollen feet,<br/> A fever,<br/> And the voices crying out within his brain<br/> Would not traipse<br/> Between surgery and casualty<br/> Being turned away<br/> For being roofless</p> <p>Because, of course,<br/> Homelessness would be genetic</p> <p>And, therefore,<br/> ‘Interesting’.</p>”<br/><br/> - <em><b>If Homelessness Were Genetic</b><br/><i>by Sean Spence</i></em>http://blog.65daysofsteve.com/post/791478819http://blog.65daysofsteve.com/post/791478819Sat, 10 Jul 2010 01:32:43 +0100
